Google Voice Search on Android now supports Russian, Polish, Czech and Turkish

Filed under: Android

This is just a quick heads-up for all our Eastern European and Anatolian readers: you can now use Android's Voice Search in four new and crazy languages! Russian is the first Cyrillic language, and Turkish, Polish and Czech mean that a lot of Europe now has access to Voice Search.

The only real problem is that you have to change your phone's global language setting to use Voice Search in another language. So, while this might sound like an ideal app for bilingual speakers, in reality it's a bit too clumsy. Hopefully future versions will include a simple on-screen toggle for different languages.

If your phone doesn't have Google Voice Search installed, simply search for "Voice Search" on the Android Market -- and it's only for Android 2.1+, alas.
