Ya wanna laugh at this but I think it's actually true!

Disappointed!
It is kind of dificult, but try again, this time, when going through the training phrases, use a normal conversational tone as if you're chatting with a family member in your vehicle next to you. Apparently this thing has an awfully sensitive microphone and if you are too loud or too stern or too robotic, it will not like you lol.
The manual says this thing can decipher "natural language speech"-IE: instead of "I need a route to a street address" it wants "give me a street". That is a very sensitive processor in there-ok.
But in doing so, it rejects the clearest most intelligible speech I could throw at it at first. Weird. They should have stayed with the right tech that's in your Camry IMO.

You would think that they could install a good voice recognition in a car that cost over $60,000. ????????

Default More On The Bad Voice Command Thing

I know I already posted about this, but this really annoys me. It's a "sponsored" link under the guise of being independent. But watch this, then try it with your 2016 RX and tell me I'm crazy that this is fiction:
