Voice dispatch lets you talk to Numeo instead of typing — ask for loads, get answers, and keep your hands free while you're moving. It's a real conversation: you speak, Numeo listens and answers out loud, and you can watch every word land as live captions. You're always in charge; you can mute or end the session any time.
The voice session screen with live captions A product screenshot will be added here.
Start a voice session
Open the Dispatch tab and tap the mic. You'll see the hint "Tap here to speak with Numeo" — tap it and start talking once the session connects.
As it gets going and while you talk, the screen shows you which phase you're in:
- Connecting… then Starting voice session… — setting up the call.
- Listening — it's your turn; go ahead and speak.
- Thinking… — Numeo is working on your request.
- Speaking — Numeo is answering out loud.
- Reconnecting… — the connection dropped for a moment and is recovering.
- Muted — your mic is off.
Follow along with live captions
Everything said in the session shows up as a live transcript, word by word, so you can read along in a noisy cab or double-check a rate or city you heard. The captions track the conversation in real time — no need to scroll back.
Mute or stop
You stay in control of the mic and the call:
- Mute — silences your side without ending the session; the screen shows Muted until you unmute.
- Stop — ends the session. When it wraps, you'll see "Voice chat session ended" with how long it ran, and a quick good/poor rating so you can flag how it went.
Numeo also keeps your screen awake during a call, so it won't dim or lock while you're mid-conversation.
Foreground only (for now)
In this version, voice runs only while the app is open and in front of you. If you press home, lock your phone, or switch to another app, the session ends — it doesn't keep running in the background yet. Background and phone-call handling are planned for a later release.
If something interrupts the call
A few things can pause a session; each one tells you how to get back:
- "Couldn't connect — tap to retry" — the session couldn't start; tap to try again.
- "On a phone call — tap to retry" — a regular phone call took over the audio; retry once you're off it.
- "Enable microphone in Settings" — Numeo needs mic permission; turn it on in your phone's Settings.
