I'm about to try some custom wake words, I can think of these so far:

  • Hey Assistant
  • Hey GlaDOS
  • Hey Skynet
  • Hey Tardis
  • R2-D2
  • CPU
  • Computer
  • Operator

I'll use them for a while and see which one I like best.

What wake word are you using? Do you have some other cool ideas?

When I had a Moto X way back when, I used "Would you kindly" as the wake word.

I miss that phone, and specifically the custom wake word functionality. Well, that and the wooden back.

I miss the Moto X. I've been known to nerdily use "prepare for voice command".
