Hi,
As you know, AA voice commands are a subset of Google Search Voice commands. So I like to post here a list of "working" AA voice commands. Someone knows about this list?
For example, I'm searching about "navigate to [contact name]", but it dosn't work at all! Someone can help?

I'm curious about that too. I don't think maps can search your contacts for addresses. I hope I'm wrong though. I even try to set a custom label within maps, but no dice.

Yes, it can, but not with the voice... or I don't know how to do with a voice command.
If you like to navigate to a contact using AA: Use the keyboard in the SEARCH box inside the GOOGLE NAVIGATOR. Here if you type the NAME of the contact, instead of searching in Google you can show the ADDRESS of the CONTACT.
The problem: Why Google don't implement a Voice Command for this task?

Oh I didn't know that! I'll have to try that out. I just sent them a twitter message about being able to do it by voice, I'll let you know if they respond.

For sure we need a FULL list of voice commands in AA. I feel documentation from Google is incomplete.

Always will be incomplete I guess, unless it's completely reverse engineered out on an ongoing basis. Is this the "documentation" talked about ? : https://support.google.com/androidauto/?hl=en#6140614
I like "take me home" ; read about that somewhere.

Yes, that is! :highfive:
I hope Google will update this list with important missed commands, like:
"Go to address [CONTACT]".
"Search around the "DESTINATION" [petrol, parking, hotel, etc.]".
"Send E-MAIL" (idem as with SMS, messages, etc.).
"Show next EVENT (in my agenda)".
"Go to address of [EVENT] (in my agenda)".
"Call with [Message App] to [CONTACT]" (Message App = VoIP message Apps).
This my open list! :silly:
And then there are all the non-English languages. Is there a list of languages for AA anywhere ?
Are AA commands a subset of OK Google commands ? I've never used voice commands much, either way.

I was searching the internet for an AA voice command list as well, but could not find it anywhere. Specifically I was looking for AA whatsapp voice commands. I just know 1 command "Ok Google", "Send Whatsapp message to <name>". But I was wondering if there were more (eg. "Ok Google", "play Whatsapp message from <name>") when I just received one.
Does AA not use the normal Google voice assistant? When doing voice commands . using the Google assistant on my home screen, results are better than when using android auto

Hi,
This is the reason for this thread: found info about voice commands supported by AA.
I don't know why Google don't share this info!
Please, post here any documentation you found.
Thank you!

New update for google voice!! It includes (I think) push notification for text messages!
Yeah it does. Read more here: http://googlevoiceblog.blogspot.com/2010/03/faster-google-voice-experience-on.html
Yep, sure looks that way. I wonder if it's necessary to put Google Voice on ignore list for task killer apps though.

Yes it is. If you kill the GV process, you won't receive notifications.
Advanced Task Manager has "Apps", "Services", "All Apps", and "System". I think it's OK to kill it from "Apps", but not the other tabs.
I don't seem to get push notifications on my voicemail. I haven't check with texts yet....
hooray!!!!

You may have already done this, but it case you haven't, there's a new setting that has to be enabled for the instant notifications to work.

I did have that enabled. I had to reboot and then the notifications seemed to work better.
I can't sign in with the new app! Ugh

Same here. I had to go to my backup file in oder to use it. Thank Goodness for Back-Ups
Same here. I was, however, able to sign in after selecting "sign in using a different account" and using my same account info.
I love this update because of the sync with inbox. When I first finished installing the update I couldn't send a sms or do the sync so I just rebooted, ran fix_permissions, and that fixed everything!
The google blog post said the inbox syncing would stop the forwarding of a google voice SMS to the phone's regular SMS number. That is NOT the case for me. I'm still getting google voice SMS'es forwarded to my cell's number. This double text receiving is the single greatest aggravation of google voice texting.

That worked....but the weird thing is I don't have inbox sync as a new option. I still have the refresh option, but it says that it's the new version. I'll try to uninstall and reboot.
edit: Still no new options.
Guys, am I alone in this? The new Voice app is not syncing/pushing texts for me, nor is it not forwarding. It's behaving like the old one.

Why even whine about this? Just go to the website and uncheck forwarding.

You don't understand how Voice forwarding works. The "forwarding" setting on the Voice website is for additional forwarding of a text to an email address. Voice by default has always forwarded to the cell phone number associated with the Voice account. That was supposed to end with this update.
The Google blog post says the following:
"...feature called Inbox synchronization, which will notify your Android-powered device of new text messages or voicemails within seconds of receiving new messages..."
and
"Plus, Google Voice will automatically disable SMS forwarding to your mobile phone, so you won’t receive duplicate notifications."
It's odd to me that both these features do not work. Maybe we can figure out something by discussing.
btw, why is this whining? We're discussing an app and its features. We're trying to get this working and comparing notes with others. I don't whine... ever. We're blessed to have such amazing phones and software to begin with.
Pretty accurate when using voice command on calling contacts and opening apps, but every time I use voice command on searches, it says "Can't access Bing right now"..., but I can use Bing to search when not using voice command.
Will it be because of my location as I don't live in USA?

I doubt it's your location. I'm in the USA and I get that message a lot even with basic searches via text input.

Not sure if your location is an issue, I wouldn't say it isn't as it certainly could be. that being said, I only run into this issue when I don't have a data/WiFi connection on my phone. Otherwise voice command has been perfect.
Can anyone recomend an offline (I mean without connecting to Google Voice) application for voice dialing. I believe starting from Android 2.2 it is supported.
I've just installed NAND HDFI rom by gauner1986 if it is relevant.
I am looking for an application where I just press button on my bluetooth headset and say the contact name to dial. If the app can read aloud new SMSs and emails it's even better .
I actually found an application Choice Dialer Plus which does the dial via bluetooth with one problem though. I cannot launch the app with my bluetooth handset button. I have to touch the phone to launch the app and then will give command to dial.
I know my handset works alright as I just upgraded from WM6.5 where I had Microsoft voice commander.
It looks I am missing something in the android.
Do I need another application which can listen to the handset or I need something else installed to the android?

You can try my app. It works offline. Application is named VoiceButton. You can find it in GooglePlay.
I think this is what you need.

Thank you, Denis.
My question was from 2011, LOL.
I don't have the HD2 anymore but thank you anyway.
Is there a way to text with Google Now through Google Voice? (If you are not familiar with Voice please don't pretend like you are) If you try to use the text command it says texting is not compatible on the device.
I would also be interested if anyone has any information on this. I remember in early ICS, it took a while to get Google Voice implemented as an option for sending text messages.

I thought I was able to get my Gnex to do it with Now on JB. But, recently it just goes to the send text confirmation and never actually does anything further.

Yes. Get the Talkatone app from Google Play, link the app to your Google Voice number as per instructions, and text or call as you like.

Interesting option to fall back on.. Have you tested it to see if the OS (and Now) sees it as an actual texting app? I'd still rather it be able to work with the native Voice app.
That's strange. My HTC Legend could distinguish between the stock app and Google Voice when using Voice Actions. It's strange that it wouldn't work now.

It seems more like the N7 version of Now simply doesn't allow texting because it doesn't think it can.
Hi,
I have Google Voice search installed at my Gear - and it works great!
But I have on problem:
When I say " Call John Smith" - then the message occurs : "contact not found" (with the symbol "contact" - when I press this, i can navigate to my contact list.
I synchronize the gear with my gmail account and there are all my contacts.
I will see my contacts on the gear also.
Anyone an idea ?
thx

I'm having exactly the same problem. But only with voice search. If I go through S-Voice it's ok.
I've stuck auto voice on the gear, so I'm about to ask a lot of questions about that - maybe that might work better?
I think it has to do with the gear not actually being a phone. Well that and the Google services not being optimized for the gear. I know as of now on null rom in the play store it says there is an update to play service aka Google now but it's not compatible.
It's still pretty early so I say give it a little time and let the awesome devs work their magic.
