Voice Command questions on MY2010

LR3 owner, myself. But my dad was so impressed with mine, he decided to ditch his Merc S430 and get a 2010 FFRR. Since he's not very tech inclined, I'm here asking questions on his behalf!

He can't seem to be able to do these by voice, but my 2007 LR3 can:

All other SatNav and Phone functions seem to operate by voice exactly as my LR3 does. So have these two features been removed? Seems strange that I can do these on my 2007 LR3 but he can't do them on a brand new Range Rover.

Thanks for any help.

I think the Radio ones went walkies.....I'll check tomorrow

In fact they seem to have improved it by removing lots

At least when you say "Navigation Go Home" it doesn't show you the nearest train station!?! Land Rover Addict

On the 2010 it gives you some idea....then says RTFM

Having said that .... being an uber geek I didn't ever use the voice commands to *tune* the radio even on my 2006.... and the 2010 has USB/iPod/DAB....why oh why would you use analogue

God, trying to get it to PLAY CD 6 Track 4 was bad enough, never mind tune to 96.6 ROFL Land Rover Addict

I use voice commands mainly for phoning which works fine.

Are we saying that its possible to tell the satnav to set a destination by name? i.e. "Navigation, go to work" Discovery 4 HSE

You could on the 2006, you voicetagged the memory points. Not tried it on the 2010 yet, mainly because I only used it one on the 2006! Navigation go home is a standard one that takes you to the "home" which you have set.

Navigation I'm hungry is a good one, although 50% of the time it showed Leisure centres on my 2006!?! I think it was trying to tell me something! Land Rover Addict

Yeah. As Thrasher pointed out, you used to be able to voicetag memory points that way. (i can do this on my 07 LR3). But my dad had stored all of us kids as memory points and wanted to voicetag them so he could just say "go to (kid's name here)" But the option to store a voicetag to existing memory points is missing.

You can say "navigation, store name" and you can store your current position with a voicetag. I thought maybe I could go back and then edit the address of the voicetag you just stored, but you can only change the name...address isn't editable.

Same here. Total tech-geek and still only use the voice command for tuning just as a novelty. Then again, my LR3 has hard-buttons that will let me type in a station # directly

But see, I was thinking the voice tuning and audio switching would actually be hugely helpful for my dad who seems to be getting lost/frustrated with all the touchscreen menus you have to tap through. So I assured him he could just switch from iPod to Satellite radio by voice, but alas...no more!

The best way to do it, is to configure a navigation Personal point, Business, Entertainment. Then, when you edit that point, you can change icons, sounds, etc...and also add a voice tag. Then all you have to do is say, navigation, go to ''...''

But, that is all explained in the manual...

The steps you've outlined is how I do it on my LR3 (and presumably older Range Rovers) but when I went through the steps to edit his existing memory points, I didn't see an option for voicetag. Did I miss something?
