Extension summary

Analyze keywords

Voice Search uses the power of speech recognition to search the web! Instead of typing use voice input to quickly and easily search for the things you care about.

Dictate your essays on Google Docs in record time and comment on social media with ease -- using just your voice!

Search by speaking: just click on the microphone and say "kittens" to search for kittens. If you specifically want pictures of kittens, say "google images kittens". Want to learn more about World War II? Say "wikipedia world war two".

Voice Search comes pre-loaded with the following default services: Google, Wikipedia, YouTube, Bing, Yahoo, DuckDuckGo and Wolfram|Alpha. You can also add your own user-defined search engines.

Please remember: this extension requires a microphone!

Features:

  • Voice input to Google, DuckDuckGo, Wikipedia, Google Maps, YouTube just to name a few!
  • Dictation for writing essays and comments on many websites
  • Speech recognition and voice commands let you quickly search with just one click.
