Hands-Free Control: Siri and voice control without pressing the Home button (Cydia)

Hands-Free Control lets you activate Siri without pressing the Home button, just by saying Siri (or whatever word you set). You can configure the precision with which you have to say the word, to prevent it from being mistakenly detected.

It is designed for Siri, but while the jailbreak arrives to the iPhone 4S we can also use it with voice control on iOS 4 and iOS 5.

You can download it by $ 1,99 on Cydia.

You will find it in the BigBoss repo.

You need to have done the jailbreak.

    With Ipod touch 4g IT DOES NOT WORK.

  2.   Ruben said

    And this will not use a lot of battery? Because voice recognition will have to be continuously activated for it to work ...

    I'm with ruben, won't that be a blow to the drums?

    But this without having Siri, what does it work for?

    1.    olive42 said

      I say the same… I have an iphone4, so why have that if I don't have SIRI?

  5.   olive42 said

    One question… to use SIRI is it necessary to be connected to the internet?

    1.    Mich090 said

      Yes

  6.   jeickson said

    It works perfectly, and it's a delight if you use voice control
    I haven't noticed anything special about the drums and "listens" very precisely.

    What is not configurable is its activation. SIRI is the only thing that activates it.

    Installed on a 4 with iOS5

    Exactly. It is the ideal complement for Voiceactivator for those of us who do not have 4s

  8.   jmolivaj said

    And how can you use it if you have the 4 and it is only supposed to work with the 4S?

    1.    gnzl said

      I quote «we can also use it with voice control»

      1.    jmolivaj said

        @Gnzl Forgive my ignorance, but what do you mean we can use it with voice control? Without having SIRI or connecting to the INTERNET, can we use them to, for example, open an application?

        1.    Javier said

          It refers to the fact that you can use the native voice control of the iphone, also if you install voiceActivartor in cydia, you can do what you say, open applications, or execute actions such as turning on Wi-Fi, location, etc. with the commands that you choose, if you combine these two things, what do you need siri for? heh

          1.    gnzl said

            exact

          2.    jmolivaj said

            Thank you very much for your clarification Javier.

    In an iPhone 4 it goes without problems but only as voice control, after messing with it all day everything is perfect but like all these things it has a but and that is that with the car's hands-free the ipod does not work (come on, you can't listen to music )
    And if it is the ideal complement to the Voiceactivator at least in my case since now I can open any application with my voice (in my case change podcast) while I cook ...

    regards

    It does not work for me. I have an iphone 4 with ios 5, I have it activated, I say siri and nothing happens ... any advice?

  11.   jmolivaj said

    I'm getting it ...... It happens to me that the sounds of locking and unlocking do not sound to me and I do not have it with the tab in silent mode. Someone else?

    1.    jmolivaj said

      I answer myself. The iphone 4 has lost all sounds. Let me explain, it does not sound when blocking, it does not sound when unlocking, it does not sound when an e-mail arrives, etc. and I don't see it very precise either, so I don't know, I'll put up with it for the weekend and if not ……. game over.

    I have to say that it works very well for me. I have Iphone 4 with IOs 4.0.2

    With the phone locked and switched off and saying "SIRI" or equivalents such as "PIRI", "MIRI", Voice Control is activated. Then it's a matter of having VoiceActivator installed to run applications or do other things.

    Regarding the battery consumption, I will comment on whether the consumption is noticeable or not.

    PS: for jmolivaj: I have no problems with the rest of the sound, for now.

      News:

      Regarding the sounds: the sound of locking and unlocking has changed, and the sound of the "Tics" of the keyboard disappeared. I went to settings and turned off the switch to turn it on again and the keyboard sound came back.

      I decided to reboot and the app has stopped working even though Cydia says the package is installed.

    The same thing happens to me as to Clasa, now when I put the mobile with sound, a strange click sounds to me, and the keyboard clicks stopped ringing ... even having the mobile with sound .... If I deactivate the app in the switch, the sounds come back as before ... it's weird

  14.   Christian Solis said

    With my Iphone 4 IOS 5.0.1 it does not work, I installed VoiceActivator and it does not start with HandsFree either, I think the application does not work.

    With the issue of sounds, the same thing also happens on my Iphone.

    This application is excellent to give orders to the iphone and activate VoiceActivator with just saying a word, it is very useful for when you are on the car driving.

    If anyone has any answer or solution to the problem please send a message to rapido@live.cl

    Thank you.
