Using Google Now on your Nexus

Google Now is really amazing. It has functions somewhat futuristic: through voice commands, you can perform various tasks on the device, such as opening applications, make calls, set alarms, and more. For the best experience of Google Now, you must be using a recent version of the application. Therefore, update the search application on your device before anything else.

To make the voice commands Google Now, simply press on the microphone icon in the search bar, and speak loud and clear the command.



Below I list the most popular commands so far:

Open applications: use the open command, followed by the application name. Eg opening drive.

Open sites: use the command to go, followed by site name. Ex: go to google.com.

Make phone calls: use the command to connect, followed by the contact name. Ex: call John.

View map of town or place: use the command with map, followed by the specific name of the place. Eg map of San Francisco.

Browse (GPS) to an address: Use the command to go, followed by the name of the address. Ex: go to San Francisco.

Activate the alarm: Use the alarm command to define, followed by the hour. Or wake me the command, followed by the hour. Ex: set alarm for 10 hours / wake me 10 hours and 30 minutes.

Create reminders: use the remind me Command, followed by what you want worthwhile. Ex: remind me to study for the test.

Create notes: use the annotation command, followed by the text to be saved. Eg annotation test.

Check movie times in the coming cinemas: use the movie schedule command in / in, followed by the desired city. Ex: Movie time in California.

Send e-mail: Use the send command email, followed by the full name of your contact. Ex: send mail to John Peter.
