I am a big fan of Vlingo and have had great success using it up until the last 1-2 months (I don't know exactly when the problem started getting more pronounced). As of late, the accuracy of the voice-to-text recognition and following command prompts has diminished greatly.
I use it mostly to make calls (e.g. "Call John Smith cell") and occasionally to send text messages (e.g. "message John Smith subject I am running 5 minutes late").
Early on, Vlingo would be spot on with the voice-to-text recognition. Lately, I am lucky if my standard "Call John Smith" even gets me to someone in my contacts named John; more often than not, I get a web search for something close to 'John' and a link to a possible match in contacts (which defeats the purpose of using Vlingo to call while driving if I have to click through a couple of screens to get the right contact).
Is anyone else having this problem? Does anyone know if I can fix/tweak my system to improve the results?
Demographics: using latest version (Vlingo 2.5.6.1) on Froyo on a DINC.
