Summary | The SBB app should be updated so the users can just speak their destinations and they will verbally receive the transport information. The developers say that the voice recognition software should be able to understand most dialects of Swiss German despite never having been enhanced with a Swiss German vocabulary. Lots of it is similar enough to German so that the software can detect the connection or it otherwise reports words that it does not understand so that they can be manually entered. Users should be pleased because it is just nicer when one does not have to speak Standard German to one's smartphone.
