Everytime I receive a notification my Moto X wants to read it aloud to me. I am sitting at my house so its not the driving assist feature.
I also sitting at my desk at work and I received a phone call and it announces to everyone in my office that I have a call incoming from a phone number.
How do I get rid of this?
unfortunately this is a known bug in Moto Assist. You will have to disable the Assist app to solve it.

In some cases the newest update to the app has resolved the issue.

I've experienced a couple of problems recently and I'm not sure if it's a bug or something they changed with the last update. I'm on 4.4.2 with Sprint.
Previously, when I tried to call a business (i.e. "Call Pizza Hut"), it would find it via Google Now and make the call. Recently, I've noticed that if the business is not listed in my contacts, it will try to call one of my contacts.
Also, if there's a contact with more than one phone number, it used to give you a prompt to confirm whichever number you're trying to call. Now, it just calls the default number.
Has anyone else noticed this and do you know of a fix?

Unfortunately, I have the same exact issue on Republic Wireless (Sprint MVNO) 4.4.2 and haven't found a solution....
Strangely, the issue seems to come and go. Additionally, the voice recognition is WAYYY off....it will try to call a contact that doesn't even sound like who I'm trying to call.
My solution is to instead, turn the screen on, then hit the microphone icon (top right corner). From there if you say "Call Pizza Hut", it seems to work 100% of the time.
I agree that the issue is quite irritating. Hopefully a future update to Touchless Controls fixes this.
It will be interesting to see if those on later android versions also experience the same issue...
Are you also experiencing the 2nd problem?
Voice recognition doesn't seem to be an issue for me.

Nope, just confirmed -- tried to call a contact with 2 numbers in phonebook (cell & home) and the phone responded:
"I found two matches. Say the name after you hear the one you want to call. 'Person' home. 'Person' cell."

Yea, that's what mine used to do. Now it just calls the top number.
Hello,
wife's Moto X is connected to older VW bluetooth which only let's you dial through the phone or pick up incoming calls. That was the reason I got her the Moto x, so the drive assist would announce calls and she could place calls hands free. However, when a call comes in, it just rings, no announcement. When the call is not picked up, the phone then says "missed call from xxx". So drive is working somehow but not all the way. And when the "missed call from xxx" announcement is being spoken (and the screen goes black with the red microphone circle), the phone doesnt react to any voice input.
I upgrade and downgraded the assist app, didnt make any changes. I'm using the "having issues with bluetooth - other audio" option.
Any idea? Thanks a lot!
Have you been into the settings of assist and checked the boxes of the actions you want when you are driving? Also, is your GPS in high accuracy?

yes and yes. Drive assist shows up as symbol in the notification bar. And it runs because missed calls are being announced, just not incoming one's. Wife has replace the stock dialer, not sure if that makes a difference, because when I disabled it it was doing the same.

Thanks. I forgot to mention that I tried to clear cache etc. But reading through the comments from the link above, there are a lot of people having the same issue. I think I'll wait and see if the coming L update will fix things. Sounds like 4.4.4 update broke it for some. And I don't have much time fussing with the phone and car at the same time since it's not mine. But as of now, Assist seems useless and I could just use Google Now for the same functionality.
Can anyone verify if the latest OTA 22.21.11 update resolved phone calls going directly to voicemail issue?
I'm on Pure Edition new Moto X 2014 running on AT&T.
Well, so far I haven't gotten any phantom voicemail notifications or people saying that I didn't answer and it went to voicemail. I always have my phone within arms reach.

That's very good news. Thank you.
Anyone else having problems with Moto Voice crashing whenever a text message arrives? My Moto Voice app just updated to 2.1.09 recently and then the problem started happening...
Strange, my version Nr is 6.2.10.1, updated 11.12.14 on problems so far.
Maybe it's because it's a German version.
Same issue here.
Mine won't work either. I am in the US just got an update yesterday and it won't make calls or receive texts. Just says stopped and let's me report it.

They seem to have fixed the update, because now it works fine!
I rooted a few months back and just noticed I haven't been receiving voicemail notifications. Anyone else having this problem and/or have a fix?
I'm waiting for a simple way to root to 5.1, but in the meantime, would love to find a fix.
Thanks in advance

You may have Visual Voicemail enabled on your account (or if you had an iPhone in the past that uses a different voicemail.) Use the Verizon self serve website and make sure Visual Voice Mail is turned off. Or call Verizon customer service and tell them you aren't getting voicemail notifications without mentioning anything about mofo, root, etc.

Ok. I've never had an iPhone - I upgraded from a 1st gen Moto X. I went to the Verizon website and it doesn't look like I have visual voice mail turned on. I already called Verizon and all they do is recommend I take the latest OTA update..
