App Description
Vocalia 2.1 is the only 100% hands free speech recognition application which enables speech access to your address book, iTunes library and Safari bookmarks.
It works on 2nd generation iPod Touch and iPhone (even faster on 3GS).
And all updates are FREE for life!!
NEW WITH IPHONE OS 3.1: The confirmation screen was removed. Vocalia auto-dials again!!
Do you have many contacts in your address book?
Do you have dozens of songs, and as many bookmarks?
Would you like to use a speech recognition tool like the one on iPhone 3GS?
You should add Vocalia to your iPhone!
How does it work?
1. Click the icon to make Vocalia's Eye appear
2. Choose the right mode: Contacts, iPod or Bookmarks.
3. Speak the name of the contact, artist or bookmark.

5. Select the correct number by saying "home", "work"... (Contact Mode), or the song to be played by saying "All songs", or the title of a particular album or song (iPod Mode).
