What You Can Do with Voice Search
HERE ARE THE COMMANDS you can issue with Voice Search, along with how to use them:
Send text to [recipient] [message]. Composes a text message to the recipient with the message that you dictate.
Send email to [recipient] [subject] [message]. Composes an email message to the recipient with the subject and message that you dictate.
Navigate to [address/city/business name]. Launches the Galaxy S II Navigation app to guide you with turn-by-turn directions to the address, city, or even a specific business.
Note
You must turn on the Galaxy S II’s GPS if you want to use Navigation with Voice Search. Tap the GPS icon in the Battery widget to do so.
Call [contact name] [phone type/phone number]. Calls the contact. If the contact has more than one phone number, say the type of phone number to call—for example, home, work, or mobile. Alternatively, you can dictate a phone number, and the Galaxy S II will call that number.
Note
In addition to looking through your contacts, the Galaxy S II also searches contacts in social networking services such as Facebook that you have installed on your Galaxy S II.
Map of [address] [city]. Launches Google Maps and opens it to the address or city you named.
Directions to [address] [city]. Launches Google Maps and shows directions for how to get to the address or city you named. If the Galaxy S II knows your location, it uses that as the starting point. If it doesn’t know your location, you must type it when Google Maps launches.
