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.”
