How to Get Music to Play With Voice Command on Android - wikiHow

If your hands are tied doing something else, like driving, then you really shouldn't use them to fiddle with your phone's music. Fortunately, you can use voice command to get music to play with built-in Android controls.
STEPS

1

CLICK ON THE MICROPHONE ICON IN THE GOOGLE SEARCH BAR AT THE TOP OF YOUR ANDROID SCREEN.

2

SAY "LISTEN TO" AND THEN THE NAME OF THE SONG YOU WANT WHEN THE SCREEN SAYS "SPEAK NOW."

3

SELECT THE PROGRAM YOU WANT TO USE TO PLAY THE SONG (SUCH AS "PLAY MUSIC"). Click the "use by default" box to avoid having to click this in the future.

4

LISTEN TO THE SONG THAT BEGINS PLAYING TO MAKE SURE IT\'S THE RIGHT ONE. You can click the pause button to stop playback.
TIPS
You can download music programs that integrate well with voice, such as Play Music, from the app store.
A headset device like bluetooth will make it so you don't have to touch your Android at all.
WARNINGS
Don't take your eyes off the road at all if you can avoid it. It's best to make the whole process completely voice operated.
