[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
Very cool free beta app on play store!

As you all know by now, I am a bit long winded at times. I depend on voice typing to help me with this and amazingly, Google Voice Typing is quite good at what it does. It has some commands and also listens to your voice to produce accurate text for messages, email, or anything else. I wanted a list of commands and punctuation so I can be good at this. When something with the rom goes wrong, voice typing "becomes retarded and very slow". It will ignore punctuation and spell it out on screen. As you attempt to correct this, it will repeat the same gibberish again. Annoying but rare. Voice typing is very good. While finding a suitable list of commands and punctuation, I stumbled on a free, beta app called Utter. I am halfway through the 15 minute video and am quite impressed. Maybe you will be too. Let me give you some URLs to see if you think these things can benefit you as well. I did copy and paste the Commands & Punctuations to a text file for handy reference. I had no idea there were so many punctuations you could use! And this Utter app is just blowing me away. The man says "create reminder to get batteries at Target" and the next time he passes by the Target store, he gets the reminder. And it does a LOT more too! Gosh I hope the audio driver issue that ruined OK Google Detection does not ruin this. Besides, OK Google is BS. The TV commercials for it made it sound better than Siri and by far, it is not even a close match. The free Utter app gets pretty close.

Hope that you find this as entertaining and amazing as I did. I have to try out Utter as OK Google was a total failure and Utter may also not work because of the no source code for audio driver issue present in Razr phones. We use an audio wrapper around the original binary. Much less efficient and much slower. But it is still worth checking out Utter as it seems to be one of the very best and amazing voice control apps I've seen. If Utter works hands free in the car on Bluetooth, I will be in Android Heaven! Goodnight all. :)

EDIT:

The Utter app is quite amazing to see the video and it "could" work that way. But some of the comments indicate issues. It is sure fun to watch, whether or not this app is a keeper or worth installing, may be another issue. But I think it is fun to be aware of amazing new developments like this. Apple really kicked Android in the pants with Siri, we have nothing like it. The Eva app I installed once for trial was not all that good and now it sells for $20! It also could be that we have old phones and simply do not have the horsepower to run these things. But really cool to watch and know when you get your new phone update, this is what you have to look forward to. ;)

Hmmm. A phone upgrade to me means paying full retail or getting it on my own. Not very attractive but considering unlimited everything for life, over the course of a lifetime, it could very well be quite worth it. :p

Update:

I installed Utter on my Razr and am playing with it now. It is for sure way faster and better than OK Google. But the learning curve is high and only do this if you have time to kill and like to experiment with cool new things. It will not be a "time saver" for you unless you take the time to set it up properly, teach it, and learn it well. For most people, it is not worth the effort. But it sure is cool, free, and neat as hell to play with! Regular users without time to kill don't bother. :good:

If you use voice typing at all, DO grab the Google Voice Typing: Commands & Punctuations list from the above URL. This is worth knowing and voice typing on Android is very, very good! I use it all the time and never really "type stuff out" on my phone unless I really have to. :D
