Hi all!!!
This is my first post!! i would like to show you my new app, its called Whatsapp Voice Commander, you can imagine what it does xD.
Work this way:
open app, you have three buttons, first one will send a message, second will open whatsapp and will read new messages, third one will finish the app and stops listening for whatsapp events.
IMPORTANT: when started to listen, screen will NOT turn off until you finish with third button.
To activate this app, go to settings->Accessibility and activate whatsapp voice commander. Then open app, check the first checkbox and now you can press the button you want!
Only works on Android 4.1 or higher (at least should work with 4.2)
Any feedback is greatly appreciated, also i am opened to new ideas or new functions. It shouls understand all languages but coded sentences are in english right now (just asking for a name and a message when sending messages).

Me and some friends mostly use twitters "direct message" function to send SMS-like short messages.
Now I had an idea if it's possible to write an app which allows you to write direct messages through a shortcut in the contacts app.
Just like I open the contact app, select the contact who should get my message, tap on "Send DM" (or something like this" and a little window opens in which I can write my message.
I don't know anything about writing apps myself so I just want to know if it's possible, of course if someone writes this app there have to be some other features, like notifications and display the characters count.
/push
I'm sorry for posting again without responses, but I think this idea is too good to be not noticed.
The good things about this app:
-messaging about data connection, no sms costs
-messaging to everyone who has twitter and follows you
-no need that your chat partner has got this app, cause it works trough all twitter clients
-no need to sign up for another service, which only one half of your friends use
-comfortable direct messaging through a nice UI
The bad:
-only 140 characters
-no pictures, files or anything like this due to twitter limitations
I hope now someone will notice this thread
I think it already exists and is available for free in the market. The name of the app is AndroChat.

Oh, you're right and I thouht this would be a great new idea..
Androchat works, but the UI is not very comfortable, are there any alternatives?
Just trying some basic things on Google Voice commands on my HTC One (had since launch) and i keep getting weird errors.
If i say "send text to Adam test" it does it as i want.
However if i say send text to Karla, it searches for contacts called Carla.
Same for Rachael, searches for Rachel.
However if i switch from English UK to English US they both work fine.
Also "send text to mum" just does not work on any language. She's in the phone as Mum, but it just refuses to do it. If i say to do anything with mum it just does a google search every single time.
There must be a way to change this without changing the system language or the contacts names? Saying "send text to phil" loads up a contact called Philip so it's smart enough....

I've heard that adding a pause before the name helps in this situation. In other words say, "send text to" pause for a moment, then say the name.
Doesn't make a difference. It knows im saying "send text to mum" because it does a google search for it instead.
I leave here the link of the application if you want to try some, it's an application to send whatsapp using voice. Converts voice into text and sends the contact for whatsapp tell you beforehand. You also have the option to play incoming messages whatsapp. This is ideal to be able to listen while driving. The Pro version that I have to finish also has an option to start the voice recognition without touching the phone, now you have to press a button.
Requirements! You must be ROOT and have installed the plugin Whats Tasker (Free to Play Store), if you have not installed, when you open your first application you will be sent directly to the link to download.

When I use Google assistant to send a message it randomly doesn't record the message in the text app. The recipient receives it ok but it doesn't show up.
I've tried about 10 other SMS apps they're the same.
Is there a problem with Huaweis app that Google assistant can't access? Any help please?

Not sure.. but with all Google apps I give them full control/permission and allow secondary launch etc.
Give that a try

Permissions are all granted. What do you mean secondary launch? You mean try a different launcher?
Hello
do you mean that during recording the text doesn't show up , but once you leave the record button it goes to the recipient instantly without the ability to check it or what ? a pic might help as i didn't understand much

Ah ok no it's simpler than that. Speech to text etc works fine.
The outgoing message does not appear in the messages or text app. For some reason Google assistant understands the speech and sends the text, but doesn't communicate with the SMS app to say "this is what I just sent so stick it in the convo list". Seems to bypass the SMS app and I've tried about10 of them now. Same problem each time.
I think it's confirmijg what I always thought i.e. android is a perpetually buggy unfinished system!
Hello again
-not sure - maybe these command may work
“Show me my messages”
also why not trying to check the messages with Hangouts that may help
Appreciate you trying to help.
The issue is that the outgoing messages don't show up at all when done from GA. In any app. Show me my messages whilst it might work is not an adequate solution as I shouldn't have to speak that into GA to see my full convos. That's what the apps are for.
BUT your suggestion was brilliant because I tried that and it shows received messages only (which isn't the issue).
So then I tried to say "show me my SENT messages" and surprisingly it did manage to show just the messages I'd sent BUT BIZARRELY IT MISSES OUT ANY MESSAGES SENT BY G.A.. !!????
So in summary it looks as though it sends messages fine but doesn't record it anywhere. When asked to tell me what it has sent it then seems to search the stock apps (that it doesn't communicate TO) and gives me that info only. So even GA doesn't know what it's sent ! Wtf??
(Hangouts doesn't seem to do SMS)
"The Assistant only uses Messenger as the outgoing source for SMS when Hangouts is the default. If you look in messenger you will see the text that you sent through the assistant. It is a bit defeatest from the standpoint of the Fi Hangouts integration and the team is aware."
this is from google forums and yes Hangouts show outgoing msgs
By messenger they mean what? Many apps seem to think they're called messenger.
As for hangouts it does nothing. Showing up only 4 convos and none of them are SMS convos. I've looked and looked and there is no option to integrate SMS into hangouts. I've given it all permissions too.
Are we on the same version of Mate 9 ? Am I missing something?
Open the Hangouts app .
At the top, tap Menu Menu.
Tap Settings and thenSMS and then SMS enabled.
Select the text messaging app you want as the default.
try this
I suspect we have different versions of hangouts. No such options in mine anywhere
``Show me my hangouts sms messages`` may help out a bit
i think also facebook messenger can help as it can read sms check it

nope my hangouts does nothing. doesnt support sms at all
fb messenger is evil, doesn't it drain masses of battery?
please change the message app to what you want to use and try again steps:
in your settings search for Default app settings then, change sms app, i think the default would be hangouts.

Thanks but despite having hangouts installed the only messaging app that comes up as an option is the stock Huawei message app. Hangouts isn't listed. There is also no setting anywhere within hangouts to use SMS. Our versions must be different. I have the latest version.
My bad, hangouts lost the integration long time ago :/
However did you but I want your to check the fb it it can detect the assistant out going messages, or else, if you didn't try Android Messages app please check it might help.

I thought the android messenger ap which is the one they want us to use now might work, but it sadly doesn't.
I'll trial it with facebook and let you know soon,
Thanks again for your efforts trying to help me out :good:
I'll try my best
Nope FB messenger doesn't record the outgoing text either. Huge flaw in Google assistant!!
I think they fixed it in latest update
Dear all,
This application was inspired by the fact that there are great demand on editing and sending quick SMS, without much action from your hands (no keyboard typing, minimum screen touches). Unfortunately, current applications on the market do not provide an adequate handsfree experience, as they still require many clicks on the screen (search for contacts, select contacts, switch to message text box, etc.). Besides, most of them do not allow multiple sentences to be inputted at one go, as you might need to click to the listen button again and again to add new sentences. Furthermore, punctuation marks and capitalization between sentences are not well managed.
Given the aforementioned reasons, we have created this application, which provides:
Handsfree contact searching
Handsfree contact select and unselect
Handsfree message editing
Support multi-sentence message. You just need to speak sentence by sentence
Support punctuation marks. You can speak "Hello comma how are you doing question mark", the result will be "Hello, how are you doing?". You can also add punctuation marks at the end of your sentence just by saying it.
Auto capitalization at the beginning of sentence
Support sentence or message deletion with voice command
Send message to SMS application with voice command
Adding emoticon with voice commands
Let us make the SMS editing by voice a real handsfree process.

If you see that this application can potentially interesting to you, please don't hesitate to take a look and try it. Your feedbacks will be strongly appreciated and valuable for the evolution of our application.
Best regards

This is a good variant. I think it's better to use apps that have templates or ready-made phrases, of course you need to touch the screen, but a minimum of touches. I'm comfortable with this. You should always aim at a large number of people. I have an example of such an application for images with text like sms https://www.maxaboutsms.com/love_sms.aspx . I use them because they are cute, they can be quickly and conveniently searched for and used. It is also very easy to install. I wish you good luck, I like your approach. People like you do mobile and unique things.
Dear, thank you for your feedback . Definitely, that is also a potential approach. For our application, we target the minimization of screen touch. For now, with our application, users can search for contacts, select/unselect targeting contacts, edit message (add sentences and delete sentences), and forward the message to the default SMS application, with only ONE single touch (to start the voice recognition). With this approach, we believe that it fits various use cases in which users prefer to minimize the number of touches on screen. And last but not least, your messages will not be limited by a finite number of ready-made phrases :-D
UPDATE: Version 1.0.1
We have just released an update which:
Fixes the issue on voice recognition library visibility on Android 11 (for those who have experience with Android 11, this library visibility is no stranger to them)
Improves the flow between searching contacts and editing message. For example, if the application is currently focusing on the message editing, and you say "Drop all contacts", the application will unselect all selected targeting contacts for you, and also switch the focus to contact autocomplete box.
Allows users to re-enable the tutorial. It will be useful if you forgot how the application works and want to see the showcases again.
