Use your voice on Android
You can speak into your Android phone or tablet to search, get directions, send messages, and
perform other common tasks. To initiate an action or a search using your voice, touch the
Microphone icon on the Home screen or in the Google Search app. If your device is
running Android 4.1 or later, you don’t have to touch the microphone, just open the Google
Search app and say “Google.”
IMPORTANT: To detect when you say “Google” to launch Voice Search or Voice Actions,
Google analyzes sound picked up by your tablet’s microphone in intervals of a few
seconds or less. The sound is immediately discarded after analysis and is not stored on
the device or sent to Google.
Turn hotword detection on or off
The ability to trigger a search or action by saying “Google” is called hotword detection. To turn
it off or on, open the Google Search app and touch Menu > Settings > Voice >
Hotword detection.
Voice Search
After you touch the Microphone i con or say “Google,” Google listens as you speak and initiates
the search or action you describe. If Voice Search doesn’t understand you, i t lists a set of
possible
meanings. Just touch the one you want.
