OK, Search engines

There are two methods to say a command.

• Along with newer Android devices, simply say "OK Google, " then a question or job. For example, if I needed to know the climate, I could say "OK Search engines, what's the weather such as today? " and a couple of seconds later Google Now would supply the forecast.
