This program is great, but its very dificult to use when your contact list are full of names in spanish. Im from Venezuela, so it have been impossible to make voicethis to recognize any name.
It would be great to have a manual to edit phonetic entries. Does anyone knows if there´s a manual to edit phonetic entries.
Thanks

Hello Carlos,
VoiceThis Dialer (and all other voicethis products) allow for fully customizable editing of pronunciation of any contact name. This allows for voice activated dialing of names in any language whether it be Spanish, Chinese, Japanese, German, etc. We have currently not published a manual for this, but if you look through the FAQ section on how to recognize foreign names there are many step-by-step guides to do this.
The best rule of thumb is to simply break apart the name to individual sounds. If the sound is incorrect, just change it to something else. For example if in Spanish "e" is pronounced "eh" and the program picks it up as "iy", just type it as "eh" instead. There is essentially no sound that you cannot create with voicethis, which makes it very suitable for international usage.
Let me know if you need further help, or if you could provide examples I could walk you through each name.
