Business Wire
Voice Assist, Inc., (OTCBB:VSST), today announced that it has
partnered with TapFactory to include a Voice Assist button on its
TapFactory app’s software upgrade that will allow clients to use
voice commands to dial, email, text, post to Twitter or even record
reminders. TapFactory, an award-winning mobile app developer for
the iPhone platform, currently has 300,000 people using Contact
(its speed dial program), 4,000,000 people using Sticky Notes (its
reminder program) and 20,000 people using TweetyPop (its 3D world
for Twitter). Voice Assist will be available in Contact before
Christmas with the additional apps to follow shortly
thereafter.
Michael Metcalf, Voice Assist Chairman and CEO, commented,
“Working with mobile developers like TapFactory to voice enable
their existing apps fits squarely with our business model and our
strategic plan. Our cloud-based speech platform can be used from
any phone to voice enable any app.”
Mr. Metcalf continued, “Although Apple introduced SIRI, its
voice-activated assistant, it only works on the iPhone 4S model.
This left 30 + million iPhones without a voice activated assistant.
Also, SIRI requires internet access. TapFactory chose to
partner with Voice Assist because we work on all phones immediately
and speed to market is important for them. Also, TapFactory chose
Voice Assist because with the press of one button, consumers can
call, email, text or post to Twitter all without pressing
additional buttons.” Click here to watch a demo.
Mark Peterson, CTO of TapFactory commented, “It’s all about
having a really simple and elegant solution so users can get more
done faster. TapFactory is among the earliest iOS development teams
with over four million downloads: Contact for one touch dialing,
TweetyPop for the 3D Twitter world and Sticky Notes to remember
everything. We’re excited to work with Voice Assist to voice enable
all of these apps over the coming months.”
