Voice command and controle: Is this correct?

That is correct you can not use it as a verbal address book. You can ask for your location, how far to destination, ask for a list of coffee shop, restaurant, ATM, gas, then once you choose a destination you can cancel your route, detour or access the reroute but then have to touch the screen to select another routing method. It's a nice unit and has a lot of features for the money. Right now Amazon has a new 4250 for $149.99. I just got mine and it has the latest maps it was cheaper than updating the maps on my 3250(which has the same features as the 4250). Voice Command will take you home from anywhere. Just say "Magellan" (The activator for the voice commands) then say "go home". The Garmin models that have voice command (cost a fortune) require you to fasten a little remote(which would be easy to lose) to your steering wheel of somewhere else. Unless you go mute,you can't lose the remote (your voice) for the Magellan.

Hi. This is Isabelle. My son finally got home and he dug out the robot and manual. He hadn't played with it since his grandson moved to New York! Here's the sequence of commands he gave me: hit the ON button, hit right arrow, hit enter, right arrow, enter,enter, record, (input what ever speech you want), hit save, (red light flashes), hit enter. That should do it. If it doesn't work, let me know.

Hi Sean, voice command works great on android. I'm not sure How's it compare to iphone. What ever your android can do, will do the same via bluetooth. I use it all the time, thus, you have to have a clear english speaking voice. I am asian, and I do studder from time to time, and it can recognized my words pretty good. To use voice command via bluetooth, you have to push the speak icon on the radio , but in my rooted samsung galaxy note 2, I can setup where I can just say the command and it will preformed the task I asked. For android devices, I recommend "Robin, personal assistant" app. Its way better than stock google voice, and Robin will learn more as you play with her. She also have a funny sense of humor. I say its equal or exceed iphone siri. I think with the pioneer mirrorlink adapter, it will unleashed the full potential of your android. It will basically mirror what ever your Android is displaying to the screen of the avhx4600bt. It's like having your phone builtin into the x4600bt. Hope this help.

From the main menu go to "Settings" and then open "language and keyboard" and follow the prompts by making your selections. Also make sure the volume is up. Finally if you want a voice prompt to repeat, touch the upper left corner of the screen where the next maneuver is indicated.

You have a choice between Samantha or Tom. I think they are clear. You can set how loud you want the voice to be. You can also set how far in advance you want your next turn. I love it.

No....the voice prompts are basic pre-recorded prompts..."Headset connected, power is high....what would you like to do....." Confirmations are usually with a ping or a beep. Good reception and sound.

Voice command doesn't work for me. There is no option for it in the steering wheel setup

Yes. Not horrible for a phone call, but voice commands don't work especially well..

No, it functions only as a standalone speaker. My phone has voice command so I use that instead.

Yes. In Android you can use voice commands. However, I'm not sure about Siri as I haven't paired an iPhone. Great unit though, all steering wheel buttons work as well as 6 CD changer.

Yes, you can play/pause track, step back/ahead, up/down volume, answer/drop calls, turn headphones on/off and perform voice command if available on the phone. A nice voice provides feedback for main actions, and alerts on battery low and connection down.

No it is not voice activated, it is continuous. It has a switch to turn on and off. It is very clear though for such a small device. I actually used my to resolve a business matter!

Hello Simon, Unfortunately no. You can turn off the voice prompt, so you will not here the voice. But the key strike tones are always there. Thanks. Fortress 253 468 0196

Where do you select voices? I've checked everywhere and I don't see an option to change the voice or choose text-to-speech.

The device is basically a speaker that works with your cell phone. There are no voice commands like "answer" or "call." However, such commands on your cell phone will work and the results heard over the speaker. An aside, I bought a different product for my wife's consulting work and sent it back. This system is fantastic--clear to both you and the caller, very reliable. She loves it.

As long as the original program has close caption you shouldn't be concerned. I tested the feature on a recorded program and the spoken text did show on the screen after turning this feature on by pressing the "CC/CS" button on the remote to the appropriate setting. The text can take up quite a bit of room on the screen (if a lot is being said) but it's there.
