More Information
Summary:Methods and devices for enabling and disabling applications using voice are described herein. In some embodiments, an individual speak an utterance to their electronic device, which may send audio data representing the utterance to a backend system. The backend system may generate text data representing the utterance, and may determine that an intent of the utterance was for an application to be enabled or disabled for their user account on the backend system. If, for instance, the intent was to enable the application, the backend system may receive one or more rules for performing functionalities of the application, as well as one or more sample templates of sample utterances and sample responses that future utterances may use when requesting the application. Furthermore, one or more invocation phrases that may be used within the future utterances to invoke the application may be received, along with slot values for the sample templates.
