Hello utter! developers,*

Your app is the best, it's so cool, I did a lot of trick with my friend.*

Well, I'm using Samsung s4, when i double press the home key utter pop up normal (mean S voice hasn't been chosen) but when i use headphone, i press and hold the mic button, instate of utter, S voice pop up. Can you fix that please. Or show me how to fix this. Also can you add a music command that play a playlist please. So that with mic button, I can easy switch between playlists.*

This is a great app, many tks for make this even free. I will tell my friend download and rate this wonderful app.

For some reason, it gives me a really bad robotic voice, regardless of what I do. I set it to Google TTS US. Reinstalled the app, restored my old backups using TitaniumBackup. Set to network mode on, still gives me a really ****ed up robotic voice. Didn't use to be this way. Even selecting Pico TTS, gives the same weird voice. No change at all

calendar

Can't figure out the calendar command. Command list didn't help. Couldn't you make it so that we can just say "create a new calendar entry for tommorow at eight called movie theater"?

Or implement some dialog on the complex commands. There are a lot more like calendar events.

"Create new calendar entry" -when? "tommorow at eight in the evening" -what shall i call the event? "movie theaters"

In general, You could make it more user friendly by having it detect when you mess up a command four times or so and then it will tell the user how to "structure the command"

Also Is there any way for us to actually help you code things, and fix our own problems, instead of just asking for your help?

Wolfram Alpha integration

First off, this app is awesome. I feel like I have a new phone again, one that I can continuously make better.

I'm sorry if you've already covered this, everything I read says you're working on integrating WA, but it seems to work great on the demo video, is there no way I can make it work like that on mine? I bought the WA App, never found an extra plug in though (maybe that's what you're working on?).

One thing I struggle with is when I'm only using my bluetooth stereo headphones and my phone is laying near by or in a pocket, I can't always tell when Utter is listening, depending on what's running, the time varies quite a bit it would be nice to have the option to turn on a small sound (beep or ding) that indicated utter is listening. I think many people don't realize how well the voice recognition works when all of the phrase is heard.

One last thing that comes to mind, an option to automatically turn down or halt Utter!'s voice during a call would be helpful, I love having the notifications in my ear all the time, reading texts and emails. I never miss a thing now.

Very exciting App, I can't rave enough about it. It has quite literally changed my day to day life. Thank you so very much for all your hard work!

I'm using XBMC and what is the command for keyboard"up down left right enter" in utter? can't figure out and try to use utter as a TV voice remote control. [MENTION=984710]brandall[/MENTION]

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] a10fjet:
maybe i'm wrong but i'm Pretty sure you'll have to make that yourself, try using tasker. You can do button presses or use shell commands
[Android Apps and Games] ailingcoot:
very new here and not familiar with tasker. Can utter do the voice command after setting up in tasker? autovoice needed for tasker?

Thanks a lot.

Edit: after couple tries, no luck. I wish utter would have simple command such as "Press up/ press down/ press enter" these buttons are not exactly displayed on screen and might be some keycodes
[Android Apps and Games] markworksfx:
You need smart ir remote and tasker to simulate button pushes and utter to use custom voice commands to trigger task in utter thats the set up I use at home to control my tv, satellite box, xbox, air conditioner, etc...

Just joined so bare with me...

I saw this on android police and wow, it looks brilliant! I must say, well done on your work so far on this, it does look great :)

I'm into graphic design, I'm not a pro (by that I mean I dont yet make money) but i'v been told im good :) So, I thought id have a go at a logo and icon for you. The icon I have created uses the lower-case 'u' in 'utter' as part of the the microphone. The logo also uses the 'u' in the same way with custom text. I hope you like it, it's on me :)

(see attachments)

If you do like it, contact me wherever and whenever and I can give you alot more, like vectors and, text and colour palette and all that.

Cool work!,

There are many rumours around, but I think we can safely assume it is on its way.

Alpha 1.5.5A - Time Tab

Hi folks, I've not quite finished the logic on the time yet - I didn't want it to just be read out in the standard format, so I made a few changes so it would sound more natural.

I've left out an opening phase on this tab. To get nothing but the time, say 'thanks' at the end, otherwise you'll get your timezone.

Let me know it works ok for now and if so, I'll complete the finishing touches on it tomorrow!

I've realised that I need to watch how many tabs I'm adding (because non ics devices are just getting squashed) - so I'm also going to combine the wifi/bluetooth into one tab and hopefully add the data connection in there if I can work it out...

Anyway, my bed is calling me - Thanks in advance!

UPDATE: My mistake. I hope to control the XBMC installed on android TV and do not use a actual remote control or my phone as an remote control/voice control through app's smart ir control.

Utter/ XBMC were both installed on same TV. Utter surely can open XBMC app. When in the app, all I need is "left right up down" and"enter" for play. Is there any workaround ?

Alpha testers wanted!

Hi folks, I'm running some tests on a stand-alone application that will supply the text to speech voices for utter!

If you fancy helping me test this app, please drop me and email from the feedback link in utter! using your Gmail account. I can add you to the private G+ Community then so you'll be able to access the download link.

From utter! you'll need to circle me on G+ (so I can invite you)

Please change to the title from utter! Feedback to TESTING!!!!!!! (the exact number of exclamation marks is important (kidding)).

The app is all about using different voices for text to speech output, so you'll need to enjoy stuff like that to want to be involved. :highfive:

Thanks for your support.

As soon as I've finished testing this new app, I'll post an update which will fix the beep in the permanent recognition. Until then, the only option is to uninstall the updates to Google Search, which caused the issue.

Cheers

Ben
[Android Apps and Games] JLPDA:
Great app, just qwirky sometimes. I have the same issue with voice recognition delayed beep. I count for 3 seconds after the voice command prompt before I give it a voice command...enough time for the beep.

Anyone else having an issue with the voice command prompt being audible on only the first attempt when initiating Utter! If there's an ambient noise error, cancel, incomplete response, etc. and a second initiation of Utter! there is NO voice command prompt, sometimes a beep sometimes not.

I've uninstalled Google Search updates in the past with mixed results.
[Android Apps and Games] afarkas:
I wonder if there is a way (maybe by tasker) to make utter announce the time every hour...

Thanks for reporting this - On some devices the beep wasn't being muted correctly (prior to the Google Search update), I've fixed that in the next release due in a couple of weeks.

Should be quite simple with Tasker. There's an alarm clock Task I wrote a long time ago that might help:

[MENTION=984710]brandall[/MENTION]:

Yes, please add an application to the market that just starts Utter's voice recognition.

That way, you can do the following great thing on the Moto X:

Use "OK Google, open Voice Command" to activate Utter when the Phone is in standby (the Moto X's low-voltage coprocessor is restricted to only react to "OK Google (Now)". This way (leveraging the coprocessor via Google Now) you can voice-control the Moto X using super little battery.

Theoretically this exactly what the App "Utter Quick Launch" does, but it doesn't work because you cannot use "OK Google, open Utter Quick Launch" because it always recognizes "utter" as "other", and thus Google Now will fail starting the app. Something more generic like "Voice Command" however will work fine.

just got utter and i need some help with notifications

love utter. but i dont like the fact that it reads out loud everything thats going on with my phone. it tells me my battery monitor status, how many emails i have, reads the emails, tells me the weather and on and on. all i want it to notify me of is if i get a text message and have it read it to me. ive tried everything i can think of. can anyone help me and tell me how to shut off all the other notifications? right now it announces stuff all day long and is draining the hell out of my bluetooth battery. thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] ShaneCR:
exclude notifications

Have you tried turning off the notifications that you don't want?

settings > advanced tab > accessibility > exclude notifications > then check them all (or most common ones that notify [note to dev, a check all here would be useful] ) except messaging, be sure to tap the save picture at the top (i missed this the first time and thought it wasn't working). That should do the trick for you.

Possible XML like extra commands development

Hi,

Just wondering if it would be ever possible that the commands could be edited with a simple XML like interface, i'm no noob to coding so If it requires java i'm down with it. The current way of making a lot of custom commands is to do it on the phone though Tasker. Although this is great it is a lengthy drawn out process because it is done on the phone, Im much more suited to typing on a keyboard then on a small touch screen. I have developed an additional 25 commands which were not shipped as default and would really like to expand the vocabulary of utter to a point of Artificial Intelligence, over a few thousand custom responses and commands and conversation. I hope others think this is a good idea too.

Keep up the good work though.

P.S I would like to start up a separate post to get some publicity and alpha tester for the 'mod' would that be ok?

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] afarkas:
The editing in PC sounds a good idea. Let me know when you launch testing, I would like to participate

Re: aliases

In my mod that I'm working on I developed my own handler for those type of sayings. Such as the yes handler that handles all of the yes type answers which only is activated if needed.
