I have already done this before ....
Not a practical solution for me. The idea of voice control is excellent but android as a platform the way things are set up is not so good here is why:
If you need to use your phone manually you take away the benefit of what voice control is supposed to offer hands free interfacing the most natural form of interface with a device is to speak to it and have it do work.
I can tap my screen 1 more time then you have to at current and preform any function so at this point why speak as I can more quickly press a button and not have to working about mistranslated text etc.
So unless we can modify android to make it always scan for voice maybe a magic word like Jarvis or home or whatever and get rid of the lock screen so this service is running at all times and does not require swiping or tapping I don't see it as a useful OS to develop any voice controlled software because it is nothing than a fancy feature lacking any real benefit unless your software is too complex which is the fault of your software design in the first place in most cases.
Do you or anyone know how to make android useful in this manner would be nice to see some old phones put to good use I currently have two tablets one on each couch that are able to control everything with charging cable right there.
