Bing Torque 3.4 [free]

Torque, a Microsoft Garage project, complements existing mobile web search or voice command without interrupting the flow of your application. Powered by Microsoft's Artificial Intelligence technologies, you can quickly shake your Android phone to voice search the web, to make a phone call, to text your friends, to launch an app, or to take notes with dictation. You can also flick your Android Wear watch without saying "OK Google" each time to do the same thing. It is like to raise your hand to ask any question and get your answer - what else could be more natural?

You can continue to activate microphone by pressing the "b" button. To see more answers, you can swipe left or right inside it. You can also swipe up or down to see more web search results. To close the virtual watch window on your android phone, simply tap anywhere outside. To move it, just touch and hold the frame. Touch the title of each web answer to see the detail in the full browser. If you shake your phone and don't see the Torque pop-up window, you may need to add Torque to your "protected apps" in your phone's security and privacy settings.
