Under what circumstances would you want to use a mobile phone voice assistant?

Some people say that the voice assistant is so lame that he can't use it. In fact, the voice assistant is very convenient to use, such as when driving, such as when typing long articles. Here are two common operations to illustrate its convenience in detail.

1. When setting the alarm clock

It turns out that we need to turn on the clock or the alarm clock application, select the time, and input the content of the reminder. When using the voice assistant, we just need to say "remind me of the meeting at 8: 3 tomorrow morning" and the voice assistant will set the alarm clock.

As far as the current voice assistant's ability is concerned, the function of setting the alarm clock can be completed very well. Even if the voice assistant fails to set the alarm clock correctly, the user only needs to repeat it or set it manually. Compared with the operation brought by the assistant, the occasional mistake is tolerable. After all, when setting the alarm clock, the user is usually not dealing with an emergency.

2. When you open the APP,

Some functions in the voice assistant, such as weather query, will have some corresponding APPs. As the voice assistant becomes more and more perfect, as an entrance, some functions of the APP will be diverted, but the voice assistant will not include all the functions of the app. Why use a voice assistant instead of an APP with corresponding functions?

One reason is that APP is too complicated. Most of the time, users don't have such complicated needs, such as weather query. Usually, users' needs are simple, and voice assistants may provide enough information. However, APP is too complicated, and users only have such complicated needs in rare cases.

another reason is that the APP doesn't support voice input, so the voice assistant's convenient interaction methods come into play, such as sending WeChat. Of course, voice input method can also solve such problems, but it also gives voice assistants some opportunities to show their skills.

In addition, some apps are very simple, and only provide a function entrance, and the voice assistant can directly enter this function entrance through the user's input, such as taking a taxi.
