To use Voice Control with Milo, follow the steps below:
- With Milo’s mic unmuted, say the wake word “OK Milo“
- A short tone and a circling pattern on the LED ring informs you that Milo is listening for your spoken request
- Say your request. For example, “turn up the volume”
- Milo stops listening, interprets what it heard, and fulfills your request
