•Avoid using special characters, emojis or
hyphenated names (@, &, #, /, -, *, +, etc . )
•Avoid using acronyms (“In Case of
Emergency” vs . “ICE”) or words with all
capital letters
•Spell words completely, no abbreviations
(“Doctor Smith” vs . “Dr . Smith”)
The system may have difficulty understanding
some accents or uncommon names . Below
are other tips to optimize using the voice
recognition .
• When placing a call, speak in a natural, moderate tone, with clear pronunciation . The system may have trouble recognizing commands if you speak too soft or too loud
