• Voice tags are sensitive to background noise. Record
voice tags and use them in a quiet environment.
• Very short names are not accepted. Use long names,
and avoid similar names for different numbers.
Note: Using voice tags may be difficult in a noisy
environment or during an emergency, so you
should not rely solely upon voice dialling in all
circumstances.
