<div dir="ltr">My iPhone scoring app reads the maneuvers to you and moves to next or previous with a swipe of the screen, but I think to be truly useful as a virtual caller it needs a way for you to SAY next or previous -- I'll look at that after I get done with a little project for Mark A.<div>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1f497d">It displays the maneuver name and plays the audio file. Pressing anywhere on the screen goes on to the next maneuver. I always intended to have the left side of the screen move to the previous maneuver and the right side move to the next maneuver, but I didn’t get around to that. The voice commands would a terrific idea! I also hoped to allow users to see the entire maneuver description (scroll through all of them when not using it as a caller), but I didn’t get to that either. The main display has a timer across most of the screen, since the placement of my iPaq obscures the timer on my transmitter. If you were using voice commands, you wouldn’t need to have the device where you could touch it to change maneuvers, and you wouldn’t need the timer.<u></u><u></u></span></p>

I know Java, and this would be easy enough to rewrite in any OO language, but I know nothing about writing apps for Android. Adding the ability for voice commands could be easy or difficult depending on what open source exists and how good it is.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
