Using Android Voice Control launch my Activity

Question

I have read this post on SO and I have tried the code to launch my own speech recognition activity. It worked!. So my question is that how can I customize the action of the built in voice command button(hardware) to launch the activity which I have written instead of the built in voice search? I have thoroughly searched the net including this website. But I could not find a solution. I know that someone on SO has it!!!

Answer 1

You must use SpeechRecognizer instead of RecognizerIntent. It's a little harder to use, but you get full control.

For code see my response from here:

and my discussion of the differences between the two approaches here
