In Android 8.0 (Oreo) and higher you can answer a call by saying "Answer Call" without inconveniences.
## IMPORTANT NOTE 2
If you have a device with Android 4.4 (KitKat) or higher, you must set Follow My Voice as your App for messages. To do so, you must go to Settings/Default applications/Messages and then select Follow My Voice from the list.
## IMPORTANT NOTE 3
You will need a TTS software installed in your device in order to this App to work. You can install, for example, Google TTS, that is available for free at Play Store.
