Business Wire
Voice Assist, Inc. (OTCBB: VSST), an award-winning provider of
mobile speech and handsfree solutions today announced that it
has released its new application for the Android operating
system.
Voice Assist for Android provides a safe driving application
that lets drivers use voice commands to call, email, text and post
to social networks like Twitter and Facebook. No typing
required.
The user interface was optimized for productive safe driving
with the ability to issue command after command without the need to
hold the phone or press buttons repeatedly.
“While you can use the Voice Assist service from any phone, our
new Android app makes the service even easier to use by integrating
with the Android address book and providing one tap access,” said
Michael Metcalf, CEO of Voice Assist. “There is no reason why
someone should be looking at their phone while driving,” said
Metcalf.
New customers who subscribe through the app can use Voice Assist
for free, through a new ad supported plan. Other paid versions of
the service with premium features and no advertising are available
through the web site. The premium features currently include
unlimited calling and Live Assist – a live 24 hour concierge
service.
“Drivers in the 21st century want to stay connected and
communicate by voice or data even while driving," said Metcalf.
"Voice Assist makes it possible to do both but helps drivers keep
their hands on the wheel and their eyes on the road and not their
Android phone.”
The new app is available for download from Google Play
today.
