144 Section 2I: Using Your Phone’s Voice Services
Using Call <Name or #>
You can voice dial from your phone with a single command by
saying “Call” followed by a name or nickname and
(optionally) a label stored in your contact list, or “Call”
followed by a valid phone number. You can also say “Call” by
itself and be prompted for the name or number.
Calling Contacts Entries
To place a call using Call <Name or #>:
1. Press and hold .
2. Say “Call” followed by the name and the label for that
number. For example, say “Call John Mobile.” The phone
dials the number stored for the contact “John” with the
label “Mobile.”
If the location recognized for the name does not have a
number stored in contacts, VoiceSignal will play the message
“No number available, John Smith, Mobile,” and then launch
the Contacts application for that name.
If a name has only a single number, or if you know the name
but are not sure which number to call, say “Call” followed by
the name only. For example, say “Call John.” If the name is
recognized and there is only one number for the name,
VoiceSignal immediately places the call. If there are multiple
numbers stored for the contact, the phone prompts you with
“Which Number?” and displays a list of options. You can
select an option by saying it or by using your keypad.
Calling Nicknames
Your Contact List incorporates a field called “Nickname.”
When you add a nickname to a contact, you can say the
contact's name or nickname when using the voice features.
