Voice dialer app

Is it just me or is the voice dialer app a waste of space on the bold? I can just about get it to dial when using a name, but never get any numbers to dial. Should it be able to dial just a number ie one not in the phonebook for example? Tried out on a storm...and that seems to work...well after a fasion, still takes a few tries sometimes.

I tried the adjust/calibrate voice thing...thinking it may not like the UK accent...even tried an american one to see if that helped - lol

Can anyone say just what and how this app is supposed to do...

Thanks

I haven't had an issue dialing numbers.

Is it just saying it cannot recognize what you're saying? How are you saying the number? Are you saying the number as you would in a conversation or in a basic monotone voice?

Kinda tried all ways...works fine on a storm, so just not sure :-(

Works fine for me - but remember that the command to begin the call is different: Call (a name in the phonebook) versus Dial (858 555 1234)
