Microsoft pivoted from having you say "Xbox" to "Hey Cortana". I wonder if that change was a result of people preferring to interact with a personality, or just to make everything the same cross-platform. (Xbox, desktop, mobile).
Earlier quoted context omitted.
It does. Long press on the home button, or press and swipe up.
I might be doing it wrong but it might also be that I'm on a Nexus 4. When I do that it brings me to Google search but the voice prompt still needs to be activated via tapping the mic button or using the voice command. Is there a way to change that to just immediately activate it? And what about from when the screen is off? I have a software home button so can't use it until the screen is turned on unfortunately.

I turned on the new Cortana voice integration and a day later I switched back to the built in Xbox voice control. Cortana might be a great digital assistant but when it comes to controlling an Xbox it's pretty terrible, the number of times I told it to do something and got the snap interface with something close to what I'd said as a web search...
How about the Japanese katakana-ization: ok googuru
Also means 'accomplice' which is pretty neat.
Who in the earth would like Google in they homes ? Haha, NSA hotline in livingroom!!
It seems to me that anyone using it, should be able to pick their own alias, as they see fit. "hey butthead, what's on my schedule for today"
