Contact List Best Practices
1) Do not store single-name entries (e.g., “Bob”, “Mom”, “Kim”, etc.).
Instead, always use full names
(including first and last names) for
all contacts (e.g., use “Jacob
Stevenson” instead of “Dad”).
2) Do not use abbreviations (i.e., use “Lieutenant” instead of “Lt.” or
“Sergeant” instead of “Sgt.”).
3) Do not use acronyms (i.e., use “County Finance Department”
instead of “CFD”). 4) Do not use special characters
(e.g., “@”, “hyphen -“, “asterisk *”,
ampersand &”).
5) If a name is not recognized from the contact list, change it to a
more descriptive name (e.g., use
“Grandpa Joseph” instead of “Pa
Joe”).

When using Voice Recognition to
place a call, speak in a moderate
tone, with clear pronunciation To
maximize the use of Voice
Recognition, consider these guide-
lines when storing contacts:
(e.g., “Bob”, “Mom”, etc.). Instead,
always use full names (including first
and last names) for these contacts
'@', '-', '*', '&', etc.)
"Lieutenant" instead of "Lt.") or
