Talking voice command work well for anyone?

I use Siri on my iPhone.. the recognition level is amazing.. I would say >90%..

The voice command in my car is probably at 20% success rate. I literally stopped using all commands except "Go Home"

Anyone have a success rate of over 50% on the car recognizing numerous, different commands on the first try?

The only things I use it for are making calls and occasionally selecting an album to play from my iPhone. I would say it is successful 95% of the time. I speak slowly and deliberately when I use it.

If the system is having difficulty recognizing your voice commands, you can go into settings and train it to understand you. This may improve it a bit for you.

Works great for me in the car. I use it for playing music and setting navigation all the time.

Siri sucks. Google Now is so much better at speech recognition, searches and commands.

I've had very good success with the voice recognition in the car. However, I have never been successful in getting Siri to work. I need to spend some time to figure out why it won't work for me.

I'll have to try this soon as my experience with the VR in the GS has been horrible when using for Navi. I would say the success rate has been frustratingly 90% success

I have found that slowing down and trying to speak as clear as possible works great. If I get in a hurry and speak quickly the success rate is not as good.

If you have a 14+ model you can use Siri Eyes Free mode.
