Make sure that your phone and speech language match and are supported by Cortana. If the
Cortana language is not supported in your region, try changing the regional settings. For
example, if your phone and speech language is Italian, set Italy as the region.
Cortana can help you:
• Schedule a meeting
• Set a reminder for an important task
• Send automatic replies for callers when you don’t want to be disturbed
• Send mail
• Check your location
• Search the web and your cloud storage
• Get up-to-date traffic and weather info, and much more
You can do all this using your voice, with only a minimum of fiddling with the touch screen
to distract you from other activities.
