what's up guys and girls John rhett injure here and I want to give you a demonstration of voice control for the iPhone 3GS Apple putting this in the 3GS I see is more of a necessity and less of a luxury the iPhone 3G and the phone that preceded it the original iPhone lacked voice controls so when you are dialing a phone phone number when you're in the car you got an unlock your device go to your phone look in your contacts or go to your favorites it was a quite a few step to get to your phone although while you're taking your attention away from the road regardless of whether you're using a Bluetooth headset or speaker stopple putting voice control into this was absolutely fantastic and one of the cool things about voice control is that you can access it when the phone is locked so let me give you a demonstration here let's say the phone is locked in my pocket or in my hand I can hold this down if I've looked his headset on it'll work as well hold down the home button and there it goes and activates you can see all the commands you can say is scrolling across you can see it's a shuffle call next track dial what group is this song by play album I'll give you a demonstration of some of these features but I wanted to show you what the interface looked like so they go and hit cancel and I will make a phone call call my house so we'll hold down the button call home and you get that little electronic woman's voice saying call home and there it goes it starts calling the house so let me hang that up no need to call my house and let's go back to a voice command so let's say that you've got a whole bunch of playlists on your iphone they're using as an iPod and you want to pick a song or a band from there I'm a big Green Day fan so let's say I want to play some Green Day so I've got a Green Day play lesson here that's I'll hold down the home button play Green Day and there goes it starts playing Green Day hit the iPod you can see it's now playing I'll pause it playing 21st Century Breakdown let's say I don't want to hear the song know your enemy I want to go to the next song in my playlist hold down the home button next song yes yes how do you get closer to it so I had turned off these let me hold this down again next song and you'll notice that while I was in closet that when I held down the button it actually reduced the volume of the music let me access voice control which is actually very neat let me show you some other features so we have play again shuffle and it'll start now shuffling every song we're just kind of neat let me show you something else let's say you hear a song and you wonder who it's by who is this song by pretty cool huh and there are really just a ton really are a ton of features that you can access and you can use the built-in headphones that come with the iPod or the iPhone rather to use all these features it really is very mean very handy and Apple took you one step further from just simple dialing I can say let's say I want to shut down the iPod air and I want to make a phone call to a number not in my phone book so hold this down dial five five five five five five five and it's actually really accurate the woman's voice that comes over it comes through the speaker is a little bit low but it's amazingly accurate how good this is so it's quite impressive I think overall Apple did a really nice job this technology is though nothing new it's been around for quite a while it's been in Windows mobile phones for years blackbirds for years it was nice to see Apple finally catch up with some features that should have been included with the initial iPhone so if you enjoy this is just a short demonstration of the voice control for the iPhone 3GS hope you enjoyed for exclusive content sure to follow me on twitter twitter.com slash jon for Lakers I'll see you the next video buh-bye
