1. Set up Google Now
If you are not a regular user of Google Now first of all set it up, make Google now recognize your “Okay Google” command. Go to settings > voice > OK Google detection and enable all toggles by sliding them to the right. Now you need to train Okay Google to your voice by saying OK Google for three times. Now if you want to use Google Now offline go to settings > Voice > offline speech recognition and download the languages you need, now you don’t need an internet connection to use Google Now.
2. Add voice commands and automate it
Google Now can work as automatic machine by adding more voice commands from taking a selfie, clearing notification, turning flashlight on and more. To do so download Commandr from Google Play Store and add additional commands to Google Now, you can set custom voice commands for individual function as well.
3. Travel arrangements and Location use
Google Now can arrange your travels if you use Google Calendar, it will tell you that you need to arrive that place and what time you should leave at, along with the traffic conditions and more, making you a punctual person. You can use location-based reminders and Google Now will remind you once it detects that place. If you need to buy something and you’re at the shop or you’ve something very important to do first when you reach home it can be useful for remembering these things.
4. Launching apps, Punctuations and Smiley’s
Google Now can launch any of your apps just say that named after launch command for example, launch Facebook. When you are texting you can use punctuations by saying Comma, full stop or period and also you can add Smileys by saying happy face or sad face.
5. Ask questions
Google Now is Google you can ask any question even you can you can ask a follow-up question it will easily understand that it’s a follow-up question.
