What else , the application designed is intelligent enough to determine your current location and show related search results.

For instance my current location is Ghaziabad and when I searched for Hotels, it showed me a list of Hotels in Ghaziabad/NCR. Not impressed ? What if the application is intelligent enough to understand India’s national language Hindi ? Yes, you read it right, this application can understand words spoken in Hindi and can show you search results.

Allow the application to assist you on the basis of your location. Once you are connected to network, hold green key of your mobile handset and keep holding until you finish speaking your query. Once you finish you will see the search results are there.

Note

Make sure the surroundings are quiet if not sound proof.

Keep proper distance from phone’s mobile while speaking , that will improve voice clarity and help the application to return you exact results that you are looking for.

Here is the series of screenshots which show the screens while doing a voice search using Google application on Nokia E71.

I spoke out “hotel california lyrics” and trust me in the very first attempt it gave me exact result shown in the screenshot below. However this application had issues when i spoke “digimantra” for search. Think it need to gain more intelligence to understand India accent or so.
