Google Now has become a big part of the Android experience and will probably be even more prominent in future updates. For that reason, it's about time to get familiar with all the possibilities Google Now has to offer.

Before we get into all the possible commands, you should know that you can access all your recorded 'Okay Google” voice commands in your Google account's audio history. While you're playing around with new voice commands, your audio history will show the new voice snippets seconds after your phone's Google Now gave you an answer.

How to get the Okay Google commands working

Obviously, your phone can't perform any of the commands below as long as Google Now. To turn on the 'Okay Google' voice detection, go to your Settings > Google > Search & Now > Voice > “Okay Google detection”. You can also access those settings from your Google Now interface. Just swipe from the left side to bring in the menu and select Settings.

Now, make sure “From the Google app” is enabled. This enables you to use voice commands from your home screen. Note that you need to use the Google Now launcher. You can also enable “Always on”, which allows you to use “Okay Google…” even when your phone screen is off. This will use more battery juice, though. So if you're already worried about battery life, better leave that off.


Now, let's move on to all the awesome voice commands

To give you a good overview, we took the most important and funniest Google Now voice commands and put them in a “Google Now style”- infographic.

So, go ahead, say the magic words or tap the hell out of that microphone button and try them out yourself!
