Voice Invocations (Android)

Voice Invocations lets Meta AI launch or foreground an app when the wearer says “Hey Meta, start {app name}.” It is a Wearables-level stream, not a DeviceSession capability, and does not require a running device session.

Configure the app

Register the package name, request Voice Invocation approval, and configure the spoken app name in Wearables Developer Center. Do not declare invocation phrases in the manifest. Voice Invocations does not require camera or microphone permission.

Detect cold and warm launches

Use the SDK validator in both entry points. Do not inspect intent extras yourself.

override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
    if (isVoiceInvocationsIntent(intent)) startYourExperience()
}
