Android Community noticed that some other phrases outside of “OK Google” trigger the voice search on the latest Android operating system, KitKat.
So I tested this on my Nexus 5 and discovered that OK Google has alternatives. I tested the following phrases that seemed to work:
- OK Glass
- OK Jarvis
- OK Android
- OK Barry
Now, I am not sure if Google confused Barry with Google and I tested it several times afterwards and sometimes it activates voice search and sometimes not.
Here is a video of this in action:
I suppose Google’s voice search trigger is pretty flexible when matching on “OK Google”.
