Friday allows to you navigate, control, and experience your typical browser session almost entirely by voice.
With Friday's help, start controlling the browser with just your voice. You'll be able to navigate sites, google things, and control music & videos using natural speech.
Friday can tell the difference between making a request and when you're speaking to another human. Whenever you've spoken a phrase Friday recognizes, follow-up phrases no longer require the use of a trigger phrase.
For example, imagine you've just asked Friday to resume your music by saying "hey Friday, play music". You quickly decide you need something fresh, but this time Friday can anticipate that without being greeted. Simply saying "skip this song" is recognized as a command.
Once Friday has recognized a command, trigger phrases become optional until an unrecognized command is detected, i.e. you've just started talking to another person. Whenever you're ready to talk to Friday again, all it takes is invoking another trigger phrase.
You can tell whether or not you need to use a trigger phrase by the color of the icon in Chrome's toolbar. Blue means 'Hey Friday' is required, while pink means you can go ahead and make your request without a trigger.
A (mostly) comprehensive list of Friday's capabilities is outlined below. Please note italicized words are variable, meaning the result differs depending on what you say. Additionally, unless Friday is already listening, you will need to preface each of these commands with one of the greetings from the first section of the list.
