Martian Watches Add New Features and Functions to its Voice Command Line to Improve Customer Experience
Award-winning Voice Command Smartwatch for Fashion-conscious Consumers On-the-Go Makes Your Life Even Easier; Now Available at Retailers Worldwide
LAS VEGAS, Jan. 7, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- CES 2014 - Martian Watches(TM), a California-based developer of fashionable wireless technologies, including the world's first Bluetooth® voice-command smartwatch, today announces several new features to give its Voice Command line of Martian Passport, Victory and G2G series watches even more functionality, further enhancing the user's smartphone experience.
The timeless analog Martian Voice Command line delivers notifications to your wrist and uses the mobile phone's familiar, integrated voice-command functions with hands-free convenience and compatibility. Wearers can make and receive calls, send and receive emails and text messages, control music, check weather or a sports score, get directions, search the web, create a reminder or appointment, keep up on Facebook and Twitter and much more.
New features and functions that make the Martian Voice Command watches more user-friendly and a stylish "life manager from your wrist," include:
-- "Tap Glass" feature which uses the Martian accelerometer to repeat a
notification for up to one minute after it came in.
-- The Martian App now supports notifications from any IMAP or POP email
account, giving more notification options to more email account users.
-- The Martian App and Watch menus support English, Spanish, French,
German, Japanese, Chinese and Korean. Texts and emails will appear on
the watch in almost any language in which they are sent (Western
languages and most Asian languages).
-- "Find Phone" upgrade: Martian was launched with a "Find Phone" feature
that helped locate a misplaced phone if it is within BT range. Since
that time, Martian improved this by overriding the phone's mute feature,
in case the misplaced phone has the volume set to "off."
-- "Find Watch" feature: Martian also added the opposite feature of "Find
Phone" - just tap a button in the Martian Watch Alerts App on your
phone, and your Martian will play a tone to help you locate your watch.
-- "Local Time" has been added to the Martian Watch Alerts App, so you have
the option to quickly choose your phone's local zone instead of choosing
a nearby city.
See the complete line of Martian Watches at Pepcom's Digital Experience!® on Monday, Jan. 6th at the Mirage, a must-attend media event prior to the start of the International Consumer Electronics Show®.

Voice Feedback for Your Apps:
Martian Watches provide voice feedback from a variety of apps. Here are just a few examples of cool apps that work well with Martian Watches:
-- MapMy Run: If A2DP is turned on, you get voice "call-outs" at intervals
and it provides distance of run, average pace and speed, and more that
you pre-set before your run.
-- Navigation: Via Google and iPhone Maps on iOS and Android Navigation,
turn A2DP on and have the directions spoken to you directly through your
Martian Watch.
-- Music: On iOS devices and Android devices with S-Voice, turn on A2DP and
use voice commands to "Play music <artist or playlist>", and the music
will come through your Martian.
Availability
Martian Watches range from $249 to $299 and are available at select AT&T retail stores, ATT.com, Amazon.com, Bestbuy.com, Hammacher.com, TigerDirect.com, NewEgg.com and more.
"We listen very carefully to our consumers to make sure we are delivering products that address needs and wants in the marketplace," said Stan Kinsey, President of Martian Watches. "We are very happy with the overwhelming consumer response and positive feedback received for our line of unique voice command smartwatches to date and look forward to continuing to incorporate cool features that our customers want."
In addition to the new functions now available, there are now protectors available for the Martian Passport and G2G series. Both available at Amazon.com, the iLLumiShield Protector and Skinomi® TechSkin will protect your watch face from the scratches, nicks and dings that life brings.
