If you want to use this voice search feature regularly then you may consider upgrading your microphone for better gain and quick answers.

After several months in development “ Voice Search” feature finally arrives in Google Chrome web browser.īy default this feature is turned off and you have to enable it from settings to make google chrome listen to your voice and respond. I first tried it on my Macbook Pro and impressed with its quick response time but some time it asked me to “Try Again” because of noise in the surrounding. They brought it to web via Google chrome web browser last year and its quite useful for people who use google search regularly.
