What does it mean that my product is Bose AR-enabled?
Motion sensors are embedded inside Bose AR-enabled products. The sensors can detect and/or
track head orientation and body movement to manage standby power behaviour for Bose Noise
Cancelling Headphones 700. Use of these sensors varies by product.
What kinds of things can I ask the Google Assistant to do?
Once you've set it up, to access the Google Assistant, simply press and hold the voice assistant
button to talk, and release it when you're done. The Google Assistant will read you your
notifications, like an audio lock screen. The Google Assistant also provides you with proactive
notifications, such as an incoming text message, a meeting reminder and many others. You can
get the Google Assistant to expand on these notifications with a single press, or you can reject
them with a double press. You can ask for things like:
"Tell me the latest news."
"Call Thomas."
"Set a timer for 35 minutes."
"Add olive oil to my shopping list."
What kinds of things can I ask Alexa to do?
Once you've set it up, just press and release the voice assistant button and start talking. Alexa
can help you manage your music and get things done—like start a playlist, play a favourite song,
order products from Amazon and control Alexa-enabled devices in your home. It can help you
get notifications from Alexa about when your Amazon order has been dispatched. You can ask
things like:
"Alexa, play '90s pop."
"Alexa, read a book from Audible."
"Alexa, add milk to my shopping list."
What happens if I'm in a country where the Google Assistant or Alexa is not yet
supported?
The Bose Music app will guide you to select from a given region's available features. For
regions where only one is available, the app will automatically display the one you can select. In
regions where neither is available, the voice assistant button will default to the native voice
assistant available on your mobile device.
How do I set up the Google Assistant or Amazon Alexa as my preferred voice
assistant*?
