Google Now Timer with voice

As we saw earlier this month Google updated the offline support in Google now, after that update Google Now notify you for your day appointments if you are not connected to internet.
Also Google Now’s latest update, will help users to set timer using voice commands like users can say “set a timer for [time]” and a card will appear letting users know that the timer is about to begin, and you will then be directed to your native timer application.And before this update Google Now was previously able to handle time queries, but all timers were run through the Google Now application, and not through your phone’s native timer application until now.

Google Now Reminder with voice

It is not finished yet, there is one other new feature, that is reminder update. Well it’s partially new. You could already set a reminder with Google Now, but it just got a little easier.

With the latest update, you can do it all with your voice. Before, you could only make the request with your voice, and you had to confirm things with your fingers, as in tapping. Now you can simply say “yes” or “set” to confirm Google’s interpretation of your request.



According to various users, this is currently working for a number of phones not running stock Android, including the HTC One M7 and M8, the Moto X and Moto G, the LG G2,  and most Galaxy devices.
