Get the Most of Your Phones AI Assistant

Your smartphone’s assistant can provide almost any fact on demand so it’s time to Get the Most of Your Phone’s AI Assistant. From the capital of France to the number of bananas in a loaf of banana bread. But this app does much more than answer random questions.

It can also organize your life, adjust your phone’s settings, control smart gadgets, play music, and more. In this article, we will highlight features with Siri on iOS and Google Assistant on Android. Other AI assistants such as Siri for iOS and Android—offer similar abilities. So alot of these instructions will be adjoining.

How to Get the Most of your Phones AI Assistant

To get started, for Siri, press and hold the Home button, or on the iPhone X, press and hold the Side button (the one on the right). In order to bring up the Google Assistant interface on stock Android, press and hold the Home button. Then get ready to put your phone’s AI through its paces. 

To make sure you don’t forget an item on your to-do list, have your AI assistant remind you about it. Tell your phone, “Remind me to…” or “Set a reminder for…” to create the note. Then decide whether you’d like to receive the reminder at a specific date and time, or when you travel to a specific location.

Either specify this trigger in your original command or wait for Siri or Google Assistant to prompt you for this information. For example, you could say, “Remind me to buy flowers at 7 am tomorrow,” or “Remind me to buy flowers when I’m at the grocery store.” 

For a quick reminder, you can set an alarm quickly. Say to Siri or Google Assistant, “Set an alarm for…” followed by a time and optionally a date or day of the week.

Adjust Settings with Your Assistant

When a voice order can immediately and easily adjust your network connections it sounds like a peach. Simply tell Siri or Google Assistant, “Turn on Bluetooth,” “Turn off Wi-Fi,” and viola.

You can use a “Turn on Airplane Mode” command to cut off all phone communication—but be aware that this will prevent Siri and Google Assistant from working, so when you’re ready to switch off Airplane Mode, you’ll have to do it manually. To avoid interruptions in a less restrictive way, activate Do Not Disturb mode, which mutes all incoming notifications, by saying “Turn on (or off) Do Not Disturb.”

If you’re running low on battery, try telling Siri, “Turn on low power mode,” or commanding Google Assistant, “Turn on battery saver. Another useful command is “change wallpaper,” which takes you straight to the relevant screen on your handset.

You can also adjust the screen’s brightness and the audio’s volume vocally. Just say, “Increase (or decrease) brightness” or “Increase (or decrease) volume.”

These aren’t your only options for tinkering with your phone’s appearance and behavior. You can also jump straight to specific settings pages with handy commands like “Change wallpaper.”

Play Music On the GO

Love listening to music? AI can make your life so easy. Just Tell your AI assistant, “Play music by…” followed by an artist, album, song, playlist, or musical genre. Then the assistant will launch your request in a specific music app: Music for iOS and Google Play Music for Android.

Both of these default apps have different versions, one for free and one subscription-only. As a result, if you don’t pay fees for your app, you’ll find your selection limited to songs you already own. Alternatively, Android users who are also Spotify premium subscribers have another option—add “on Spotify” to the end of your command to play your requested selection through that app instead of the default one. Sadly, this trick doesn’t work on iOS.

Once the music starts, you can also navigate through various songs. Try voice commands like “next song” or “previous song,” or adjust the volume as we discussed previously.

Access And Call your Contacts Instantly

All you have to say is “call,” “text,” or “email” one of your contacts. If the AI can’t tell which contact you mean, it will provide a list of potential friends for you to choose from.

If you opt to call, the phone will dial immediately, but for texts, you must either dictate or type the message before the AI can send it. In fact, you can include the script of your SMS in your original command. For example, something like “Tell dad I’m going to be five minutes late” will add that text to your latest conversation with your father.

The email voice command works similarly to the SMS one. Once you say to email so-and-so, a new message will pop up in the default email app, allowing you to voice or type the actual words of your message.

So in the end all you have to do is start using your AI and get the most out of your smartphone.  If you have any suggestions then please share them with us in the comments section
