Text, phone, tweet, and Facebook friends, get movies listings, sports scores, set reminders, remember things, and more, ... hands-free just using your voice!"An excellent app - Editor's Choice from DroidAppOfTheDay.com/2012/11/#1173437722159198564"Cognito is different than other voice recognition assistants in that it uses continuous speech recognition and doesn't require that you tap a microphone icon or make selections from a screen. You speak. It listens and does things for you even while your screen has dimmed or is in lock-screen.Cognito constantly learns and improves its ability to recognize your voice the more you use it. It's the only truly eyes- and hands-free voice recognition assistant on Android, making it ideal for use on the road, in bright places where you can't see your screen, and wherever and whenever your hands are tied.Speak, get information, and get things done faster than ever before. Say things like "Where's the nearest grocery store?", "What were yesterday's baseball scores?", "Text Ben: I'll be there in 5 minutes.", "What are the top movies?", "Call Fred", or "Remind me to pick up my laundry at 4 o'clock today." without ever having to press a button or stare at your phone.With Cognito you can hands-free: Send texts Place phone calls Tweet on Twitter Post on Facebook Find nearby restaurants, grocery stores, and other places Set reminders Remember things Make appointments or create tasks Get baseball, basketball and hockey scores Movie show times and theaters Local weather or in any city Stock market quotes News headlines Airline flight information The location of your car or anything you designate Get word definitions Convert units of measure or currency Do simple calculations Get the time or date Hear jokes or wise sayings... and more features are being added all the time.Cognito works best with natural voices such as those offered by IVONA and SVOX. * The IVONA speech engine and voices are available at http://bit.ly/Hzk16U (note that the IVONA voices are in beta development, meaning although free, they do occasionally stutter, but their quality is outstanding). * The SVOX speech engine and voices are available at http://bit.ly/IpEvk3 . * The basic Android voice installer and voice data are also available for free at http://bit.ly/HPHMIv and require the installation of the SyntheticSpeech Data Installer and Synthetic Voice.Currently only English is supported.
