Requirements

  • Voice commands are currently supported for English only, with support for more languages coming soon. You can use different language settings on your DURA 2 SOLAR, but voice commands must be spoken in English. 
  • Voice Control requires an active connection to your phone with the COROS app running in the background. (No internet connection required.)

Example Voice Commands

Activities

  • Start an activity: Say "Start Road Bike" or "Open Indoor Bike," and your device will open that activity mode start screen.
  • Set heart rate alerts: Say "Alert me if my heart rate goes above one hundred sixty"
  • Set nutrition alerts: Say "Set a thirty minute nutrition alert" or "Set a nutrition alert once every sixty minutes"
  • Start a workout mid-ride: Say "Open Workouts" to browse and select from your saved workouts, and start tracking during your ride.

Navigation

  • Use navigation: Say "Open Navigation," "End Navigation," or "Navigate Back to Start" to control navigation features.
  • Navigate to a place: Say "Navigate to the park" or a specific destination, and DURA will search for nearby results.

Sensors and Accessories

  • Control smart trainer: Say “Lower trainer resistance to 10%” or “Set target power to 180 watts”
  • Manage accessories: Say "Open accessories" to view and manage your connected sensors.

Others

  • Media Control: Say "Play music," "Pause music," "Next track," "Volume down," "Shuffle," and more to control the playback when using Media Control.
  • View notifications: Say "Open Notifications" to see your recent messages.

Troubleshoot

Voice Control doesn't recognize my command.

If DURA 2 SOLAR does not recognize your request, it will prompt you with an on-screen message to try again. Please keep the following best practices in mind:

  • Only English voice commands are supported at this time. If your watch and COROS app are set to a different language, you can still use Voice Control, but any voice commands that you give must be spoken in English.
  • After opening Voice Control, make sure to speak loudly, slowly and clearly.
  • Loud background noise such as wind or auto traffic can make it harder for the microphone to pick up your voice. Try again in a quieter area or speak closer to DURA's microphone.
  • Speak simple phrases rather than long sentences.

Please note that not all features or functions can be controlled with your voice. Reference the examples above for what types of commands are supported.
