Google Adds Voice Recognition to iPhone App

18 November 2008

I have a very good feeling about Google’s new iPhone app that does voice recognition. I’ve been playing with this voice recognition application for several weeks and I have to say that I’m really impressed. First and foremost, the voice recognition works really well.

It’s actually quite wonderful to be able to lift your phone up to your ear, speak a phrase and have the results pop-up on screen for you. It works surprisingly well, even with my non-US accent, although I’m not sure if I’ll ever actually use it.

Also, fyi for everyone that’s not in the US – you need to enable it in the preferences after you update, as it’s not on by default.
