To bad I cannot use the ok Google voice actions in my own language at the moment.. Even English is not supported that well at the moment as far as I know. "navigate to London" does work but cannot navigate to Amsterdam [emoji15]
I have set the Google now settings (on my phone) to English and second language to Dutch. This doesn't help understanding voice actions at all, it only makes it worse.
Is German good supported at the moment?
There isn't even Dutch language menu support on wear... Come on Google..
Does anybody have any tips to make it better?

On my phone, navigation commands are understood but not on my watch.
For example... When I say "ok Google", "navigate to Amsterdam" (on my phone with Google now) it starts the maps navigation.
When I try the same on the watch it only start some websites found...
Can someone try what happens on your watch?

Same with italian language.. as far as i keep english as first language it works but italian as second language as well is not working almost at all!
on the phone everything works fine... when i get back on the watch italian even if selected doesn't work well.. and after yesterday update the blue circle spin much longer than before.. before was istantaneous !
i hope they work on a better release!
Hopefully google will sort this out sooner than later. I even cannot choose the interface language in Dutch. There is German, French, Spanish, Chinese etc but no Dutch. Not even after the Aw5.0.1 update...
Shame on you Google!
One other question, when initially installing the watch, I can select a few languages. I have set it to English, no problem, but there was no Dutch(Netherlands) available. I hope this is normal and Android Wear is not yet in Dutch? Or am I missing something?

Hi,
Today Goggle has enabled the vocal dictation and search for Italian, Spanish and French people.
I have a Desire with Froyo (DeFrost 0.7b) and I can confirm it works very well, but only for Maps and SMS/Email dictation.
It doesn't work for internet search and voice commands.
In addition for Sense users, the HTC keyboard at the moment seems to be not enabled. It works only from Android Google Keyboard.
Is there some developers available to help us having a complete search function on HTC Keyboard and voice searc/command (if possible to link to the new google language server) ?
Thanks in advance
Sorry for my english, as usual

Can you be more specific? Where is this setting? In HTC_IME settings or phone settings? I don't find anything like that :/
There's more to it:
http://googlemobile.blogspot.com/2010/06/fun-on-autobahn-google-maps-navigation.html
My text-to-voice language is set to UK english and I have also enabled the 'force programs to use this choice' option yet the navigation app still uses the american english voice.
Anyone else seeing this on the desire?
Maybe the uk choice is not installed?
Swyped from Oxygen with Transparent XDA App
Both UK and US English packs seem to be installed and are available as language selections. The 'listen to an example option' indeed correctly uses the UK english voice, but google navigation refuses to honour that choice... Does anyone know where maps stores its language choice as it seems to ignore the 'voice input and output' settings?
(this is on close-to-stock gingerbread ROM with maps v5.8.0)
I had the same problem - it's annoying having a robot tell you what to do, even worse to have an American robot bossing you around.
After a lot of tinkering, the problem seems to be that Navigation gets confused if your global language and your text-to-speech language aren't the same. So you need to change your global language to English (UK) in Menu / Language and Keyboard / Select Language. The trouble is, the stripped down Gingerbread for HTC Desire doesn't have English (UK) as an option - only English (US). So you also need to run a little app called "Any Locale, a switching widget" (by leohoo) available free on the market, to let you select English (UK).
Once you have selected English (UK) as your global language, you can actually delete the "Any Locale" app to save storage space.
And ta-da! Annoying English robot is back.
Thanks, it does look like a Google Maps bug, but this works....
UK language
@ SolentUK
THANKS a bunch for that app info! Finally got rid of that American [email protected]%.
It's ok. I can say that. I'm American.
I love the British accent. It sounds just like Ferb from Phineas and Ferb.
Yeah, I like to watch cartoons.... still.
Speech in Navigation is stuck
OKay. Here's the scenario.
Got tired of U.S. female robot very quickly.
Selected English UK whch sounds like Ferb from Phineas and Ferb, if you watch Disney...
Had to use Any Locale to switch to the English UK
Work for a few days, then intermittently went back to U.S. Female robot.
Downloaded SVOX and the voice Oliver UK. He worked for weeks.
All of a sudden now, when I start Navigation(Google) the only things Oliver says is "50 feet". Tthen in about 20 seconds or so, he repeats "50 feet. 50 feet."
Reset all of the language inputs and even tried using different languages. Still Oliver comes on and says "50 feet."
Uninstalled SVOX and Oliver. rebooted phone, but still Oliver comes on saying, yep. you guessed it, "50 feet".
Tried resetting languages ifor the default and langauge inputs and text to speech...again and used Any Locale. Nope!
I know that Google Nav can be buggy a little, but c'mon!
Any help is welcome. I'm excellent at navigating and reading maps. Don't need a GPS, but damn it! It's supposed to be a feature that works, therefore I want to use it. It makes a fun toy.
I'm trying to figure out how to get Google Now to work with both English and Spanish recognition in my Moto 360. Google now works perfectly on my phone (Samsung GN2 ) and recognize my voice with my hispanic accent on both languages, but my Watch doesn't.
Have someone figure this out already?

I'm interested in this, too. Nobody knows?
Hey, just discovered that Google has integrated WhatsApp and other messaging services into "Ok Google" - see here
https://plus.google.com/+google/posts/Lak3Pep2Yjd
Yep, I've been using this extensively and it's actually really good.
All you need to do after you say 'Ok, google' is say 'Send whatsapp message to <ContactName>' and then dictate the message.
The voice recognition that google has is really good.
