    The timer is useful. The weather is too. Maybe a few other functions. My Cortana only works about half the time by saying hey cortana. The translator would be nice if it could take my speech and translate it, not make me type it in. My Mexican friend says the name Jeremy is said as Hair -a-me-es. Cortana says it sounds the same in Spanish as in English.

      Vangeliko Schostakovich Cortana is built into Windows 8.1 and 10. You need a Microsoft account to store settings (the "notebook").
      Cortana is also now available in the Google, Apple (iPhone and iPad), and Samsung Galaxy app stores. (I don't know about the Amazon app store for their Fire tablets.)

    Came here looking to see if the music commands were still part of the set. Whenever I try to get Cortana to "play music" or "play {insert artist/album/song here}" she just searches my command in Bing. She's not even trying. Nothing concrete such as "couldn't play music" or "can't find music" , she just denies the existence of the play music commands! >:O

    I am not the most technologically advanced person only found out about this recently. I'm looking to find out is this program available with Windows 10. Upon purchase, or is it something you buy separately? Please don't make fun of what I'm going to say next! I've been looking at those little air freshener assistant gizmos and assume this would be the same thing. Every place I asked about getting one of those home assistant devices. The staff were completely useless. Despite the fact the couple questions I have were extremely basic. I wanted to know if I needed a smart phone or up-to-date computer in order to use one of those home assistance. None of the stores could answer that question, which I figured was pretty straightforward. I'm guessing this program can be used for reading text which is one of the jobs I was interested in using something like this. I do a lot of stuff using DragonDictate and admittedly, this looks like it might be just as handy. I'm still using windows XP on a ruggedized military laptop Erie it admittedly, I've got much newer machines that run Windows 10 and never got around to learning the operating system. I keep getting fairly new machines where people throw them out because of spyware issues and frankly been too busy to reinstall an operating system other problem I've been having is trying to get a physical copy of Windows 10 because I'm a do-it-yourself kind of person. I keep being told you downloaded from the Internet which I don't exactly like I would rather have it on a physical disk like with Windows XP.

      @@mandalafoodiboo8428 frankly, I haven't used anything other than Windows XP and a few prior operating systems. Most of the equipment I use isn't very happy if you try to run anything beyond Windows XP on it. I've literally got several gaming computers that were extremely expensive bills. At the time that I don't think would run Windows 7 or Windows 10 despite their multicore systems. I'm kicking around the idea of setting at least one computer running Windows 10 in order to use the Cortana digital assistant. It seems kind of redundant to have one of those home units. If you Already got a digital assistant on your computer. It's ridiculous how many stores. I've tried to get Basic information on one of those home units and nobody seems to know anything.logically I would think they require being paired with a smart phone or a computer Because the device is so tiny I can't imagine it functioning on its own with strictly a wireless Internet interface. Leaning to words Cortana also because I always liked the voice.

    Just tried many of the proposed commands in German. Turns out, Cortana is as dumb as Siri. You can ask for date, time, weather and it does recognize some hardcoded questions. But anything else - including many of the questions that work in English - just open a Bing search. But at least the (non-contextual) speech recognition is mature; Most bing searches are written correct. As of today, Cortana and Siri are little more than fancy alternative keyboards :(
