Telekom Slovenije has further improved the user experience of its NEO platform, which supports Slovenian voice commands for management of content and smart home devices.
It launched the completely revamped neo.io website and the new NEO mobile app, which bring the same line-up of TV channels that is available to the user on their NEO Smartbox set-top boxes. The new mobile app is available in the Google Play and App Store.
Telekom Slovenije has also introduced numerous other new features that are making the multiple international award-winning NEO platform even more popular. Over the past two and a half years NEO has already won over more than 100,000 subscribers, becoming their central hub of home entertainment.
The design of the NEO platform is comprehensive, yet intuitive enough for users to quickly get used to the new features and approaches. Watching TV over the NEO Smartbox brings a new and even more simplified user interface, with faster access to TV channels, as well as new themes that support different colour backgrounds and (optionally) also focus on specific content, topics, etc.
NEO now also features an improved electronic programme guide, as well as video stores, and the search engine now also supports sorting films and TV shows by IMDb and Rotten Tomatoes scores, year of release, etc. It displays both original film and TV series titles, as well as their Slovenian translations.
The new and improved universal search engine already processes nearly 9 million voice commands per month
NEO’s advanced search engine now also supports searching for content on YouTube and the Voyo SVOD service, with plans to include several more libraries and services that users will be able to search using voice commands. Excellent voice recognition of the Slovenian language supports advanced features and user scenarios for TV content viewing and smart home device management. NEO voice recognition processes nearly 9 million voice commands per month, and the number of differently pronounced words has exceeded 200,000. If a voice command is not correctly recognised on the screen, users can now correct it easily using a virtual keyboard.
Voice search is most used for cartoons
Users of the NEO platform most frequently utilise voice search to find cartoons. More than a half of voice commands are about changing channels (by saying the channel name), and more than a third are actual content searches, for example looking for films, shows, actors, video on demand services, apps, and similar. The rest are so-called technical commands that allow users to record a show, change their profile, change the volume, manage their smart home or say the number of the channel they want to watch.
