Choose the name you want to call it, say it and give the command: write and send messages, call, navigate, play music or hear your new messages — all without touching the screen or taking your eyes off the road.

You talk, it does.

WHAT YOU CAN DO BY VOICE

WhatsApp

• Hear your new messages read out loud.
• Read a specific contact's messages.
• Write and send a message by dictating it.
• Reply to the last message you received.
• Send voice notes and open any chat.

Calls

• Call any contact just by saying their name.

Email (Gmail)

• Hear your latest email or your unread ones.
• Dictate and prepare a new email (recipient, subject and message).

Maps and navigation

• Start navigation to a destination.
• Find a nearby place (gas station, pharmacy, restaurant…).
• Share your location with anyone.

Music

• Search and play a song or artist on Spotify.
• Control playback: play, pause, next, previous.
• Turn the volume up or down, set an exact level, or mute.

Apps and screen

• Open or close any app by name.
• Switch back to the previous app.
• Scroll the screen by voice (“down”, “up”).

Calendar

• Hear what's on today.
• Create events and reminders by dictating them.

TRY SAYING

Say your assistant's name, then:

• “Text Sandra that I'm five minutes away”
• “Call mom”
• “Read my new messages”
• “Take me to the nearest gas station”
• “Play Coldplay on Spotify”
• “What's on today?”

UNDERSTANDS HOW YOU TALK

No exact phrasing needed. Say “I need to call my brother”, “take me home” or “turn up the volume”. Works in English and Spanish.

BUILT FOR SAFE DRIVING

Turn it on and it answers with the screen off. One sentence and you control your phone without letting go of the wheel.

YOUR PRIVACY

Voice Drive processes commands on your own device. It does not sell your data, shows no ads, and does not upload your conversations or contacts to our servers. Messages it reads to you are kept only in a local encrypted store.

PERMISSIONS

For hands-free use, the app uses the microphone (to hear the name and your commands), notification access (to read and reply to messages), the Accessibility service (to tap “Send”, scroll and close apps you ask for), contacts and phone (to call/message), and location (only when you share it). Android will request each permission.

Download it free and keep your hands on the wheel. ## Rankings - #2,935,317 — Overall ## Permissions and access ### Permissions - `android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION` - `android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION` - `android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE` - `android.permission.CALL_PHONE` - `android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE` - `android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE_MICROPHONE` - `android.permission.POST_NOTIFICATIONS` - `android.permission.READ_CALENDAR` - `android.permission.READ_CONTACTS` - `android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO` - `android.permission.VIBRATE` - `android.permission.WRITE_CALENDAR` - `com.android.vending.CHECK_LICENSE` - `com.voicedrive.app.DYNAMIC_RECEIVER_NOT_EXPORTED_PERMISSION` ## Similar extensions and apps - [DriveDash: Car Mode Dashboard](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.drivedash) — 218 users - [DriveMate – AI Voice Assistant](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.tradelinksolution.drivemate1) — 96 users - [Voice Assistant](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.suj.voiceassistant) — 1,289 users - [AI Voice Commands - Assistant](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.aivoice.smartassistant) — 95,599 users - [Android Auto](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.google.android.projection.gearhead) — 12,584,396,188 users, 4.14 / 5 - [Bip it Voice Commands](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.pzlapps.bipit) — 474,729 users, 4.10 / 5 - [Voice Commands Assistant App](https://chrome-stats.com/d/alexapp.echodot.echoplus.tap.com) — 5,151,852 users, 4.03 / 5 - [AI Voice Commands Assistant](https://chrome-stats.com/d/alexa.voiceassistant.aialexavoice) — 1,031,839 users, 4.47 / 5 - [AutoMate - Car Dashboard](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.bitspice.automate) — 3,272,485 users, 3.85 / 5 - [Voice Command: Smart Assistant](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.alexa.voiceassistant.voicecommand) — 26,338 users, 5.00 / 5 - [Cara Vehicle Assistant](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.cloudmade.android.cbuddy) — 2,727 users - [Miri: Voice Assistant AI](https://chrome-stats.com/d/dominapp.number) — 967,078 users, 4.10 / 5 --- Source: [Chrome-Stats](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.voicedrive.app)
