voice prompts
Audible system guidance
Voice prompts are recorded or synthesized spoken instructions that guide users through automated systems—phone menus, GPS navigation, software tutorials.
They tell you to press 1 for billing, turn left in 500 feet, or say your account number.
Follow the voice prompts to complete your registration.
The term also applies to spoken commands given to AI systems that generate audio or other content.
