voice search
Talk to find
Voice search is the use of spoken commands rather than typed text to query a search engine or digital assistant: I found the restaurant through voice search.
The technology relies on speech recognition to interpret queries and return results.
Voice search has become common with the rise of smartphones and smart speakers.
