To further enhance the ease of solving mobile related issues, Dialog has introduced an Artificial Intelligence (AI) based voice assistant, exclusively for its mobile customers. The app can be accessed via any Amazon Alexa enabled devices, Google Home devices or mobile devices that supports Google Assistant.

If you are currently using Google Assistant on your mobile phone or a Google Home device, simply start by saying, “Okay Google, talk to Dialog”. You will then be asked to sign up with your mobile number. Upon verification, you may begin asking mobile connection related queries, mentioned under the 'Capability' list.

If you are using any Alexa enabled device, search and enable the skill name “Dialog” on the Alexa Skills page and follow the instructions on the skill description.
