Voice Assist Partners with TapFactory to Integrate Voice Command Technology Capabilities

Voice Assist, Inc., (OTCBB:VSST), today announced that it has partnered with TapFactory to include a Voice Assist (News - Alert) button on its TapFactory app's software upgrade that will allow clients to use voice commands to dial, email, text, post to Twitter or even record reminders. TapFactory, an award-winning mobile app developer for the iPhone (News - Alert) platform, currently has 300,000 people using Contact (its speed dial program), 4,000,000 people using Sticky Notes (its reminder program) and 20,000 people using TweetyPop (its 3D world for Twitter (News - Alert)). Voice Assist will be available in Contact before Christmas with the additional apps to follow shortly thereafter.

Michael Metcalf, Voice Assist Chairman and CEO, commented, "Working with mobile developers like TapFactory to voice enable their existing apps fits squarely with our business model and our strategic plan. Our cloud-based speech platform can be used from any phone to voice enable any app."

Mr. Metcalf continued, "Although Apple (News - Alert) introduced SIRI, its voice-activated assistant, it only works on the iPhone 4S model. This left 30 + million iPhones without a voice activated assistant. Also, SIRI requires internet access. TapFactory chose to partner with Voice Assist because we work on all phones immediately and speed to market is important for them. Also, TapFactory chose Voice Assist because with the press of one button, consumers can call, email, text or post to Twitter all without pressing additional buttons." Click here to watch a demo.

Mark Peterson, CTO of TapFactory commented, "It's all about having a really simple and elegant solution so users can get more done faster. TapFactory is among the earliest iOS development teams with over four million downloads: Contact for one touch dialing, TweetyPop for the 3D Twitter world and Sticky Notes to remember everything. We're excited to work with Voice Assist to voice enable all of these apps over the coming months."
