You will want to use some of the information in this section to make 
using your phone and contacts list with Voice command easier.

•   How do I call voicemail? – Make a contact named ‘voicemail’ and 

add each of your voicemail numbers. Now you can simply say 
“Call VoiceMail at Home”. 

•   Feel free to use friendly names – You can name contacts with 

friendly names such as Home, Mom, or Dentist. After doing this, call 
by simply saying “Call Home”. 

•   Synchronizing fewer contacts – (For desktop sync only, doesn’t 

work with server sync) You can save memory and improve 
recognition by synchronizing only the contacts you need. Open 
ActiveSync on your PC, and choose Tools 

➞ Options ➞ Contacts 

➞ Settings. Select either individual contacts or categories to sync. 

•   Redial and callback are easier than dialing – Use “Redial” to call 

the last person you called, and “Callback” to call the last person who 
called you. 

•   Don’t take long pauses during digit dialing – If you pause for a 

long time, Voice Command will attempt to recognize the incomplete 
number. 

•   Call a contact at a location – Speed up calling by including the 

location. For example, “Call Karen Archer at home”. 

•   What’s the best way to enter couples as a contact? – If you know 

A & B Smith, try putting ‘& B’ into the middle name field. This way you 
can either “call A Smith” or “call A and B Smith”. 

•   What’s the best way to enter company abbreviations? – If you 

are having trouble getting recognition on a company of the form ‘ABC 
Painting’ try renaming to ‘A. B. C. Painting’ to clarify that these letters 
are spoken individually.
