PrestaShop Voice Search module is compatible with the following browsers:

1. Google Chrome (Version 40 and above)
2. Microsoft Edge (Version 125 and above)
3. Opera Mobile (Version 83)

Following are the browsers that currently don’t support PrestaShop Voice Search.

1. Firefox browser
2. Brave
3. Chromium version 90
4. Opera desktop

Use the latest updated browser for a better experience.

• Firstly, go to the module manager in the back office and click on ‘upload a module’.
• After that, drag and drop the module file or select the file from the system.
• In this way, the module installation will be successful.

After the successful installation of the module, a voice search button start appearing alongside the search bar.

The customers can use this to search for the products they want to buy.

After clicking on the “voice search” button, a pop-up notification appears on the screen.

Now, allow access to use the microphone by the browser to start using the voice search feature.

Now a customer can speak on the microphone & it will automatically type in the search box. After that, search results will also appear based on the search text.

A customer can also select the language to use voice search in that particular language.

Say, if a customer is from “France” and he only speaks “French“.

Now, in this case, a customer needs to select the “French” language first & then speak in the voice search box to perform the voice search.

In case, if he selects the “English” language & speaks “French” then no search query will be performed.

A customer can also make use of the voice command button to fill in the details in the name field while creating an account.

This usually happens in the following manner.

• A customer first clicks on the voice command button.
• Then, he/she speaks into their microphone.
• On detecting the voice, the spoken test automatically fills into the field.

Note: There is a voice command button against each text field. Hence, the text fills in that box only whose voice button the customer clicked.

The automatic text filling functionality using the voice command button also works on other pages of the shop too.
