Use Voice Actions
You can use Voice Actions with Google Search to get directions,
send messages, and perform a number of other common tasks.
You initiate a Voice Action the same way you initiate a voice
search, by touching a
Microphone icon in a search box or the
Chrome omnibox, or by saying “Google” when the Google Now
screen is open. For details, see “Search & Voice Actions basics”
on page 34.
Next, speak the Voice Action you want to use. Here are some typi-
cal examples:
“Set alarm for 8:30 a.m.”
“Send email to Marcus Foster. Subject: Coming tonight? Mes-
sage: Hope to see you later.”
“Navigate to Mike’s Bikes in Palo Alto.”
