MAIN COURSE

Better call Arc 📲 🙊

On Thursday, Arc Search introduced Call Arc. It’s a new voice search feature for your iPhone.

What is it?

It’s a feature in the Arc Search app from The Browser Company. It allows you to ask questions and receive answers in a way that’s designed to mimic a phone call.

How does it work?

Just open the Arc Search app, hold your phone to your ear, and ask a question. The app plays hold music while searching, then delivers verbal answers. You can program it to come up when pressing the action button on new iPhones.

So, it’s like SIRI?

Call Arc is designed to outperform Siri with a more seamless interaction. It’s updated frequently for an enhanced user experience and offers a more intuitive way to access information.
