I found a few reviews comparing Google Now, Cortana, Siri and Alexa.

* http://www.t3.com/features/siri-vs-google-now-vs-cortana-vs-alexa

After reading these comparisons, Google Now seems to be the best at answering questions and anticipating your needs. Siri is the best at controling your device, and Cortana tries to do both.

If by better implementation you just mean controling functions on your device then you're right. If you're looking at a voice assistant to do more than that then Cortana may not be the best implementation. Again, I'd suggest people do their own research, give each a try themselves and then report back on the list so we can all benefit.

Hello Shawn,
That is what I meant. It appears Cortana has a better implementation for now.

Hey Chris, I'm kinda confused. What kind of restrictions are you talking about 
that Cortana has. She can make phone calls, send texts, make reminders, same 
thing as Siri can. If I remember correctly, Google Now can't do that stuff. So 
that's why I think he said it's either Siri or Cortana.

I wonder why you say it's Cortana and Siri for now. Cortana will have the same 
restrictions as Google Now, since these are restrictions placed on apps by 
Apple.

Also, the personal assistant from Google is not Google Voice. Google Voice is a 
VOIP offering from Google. Here's the URL for Google voice 
https://www.google.com/voice

Hello,
OK, thanks for that. Sounds like its Cortana and Siri for now. Thanks again.

You can do voice searches and configure the app to respond to "OK google", of course the app has to be open and in the foreground 
for this to work. You can also activate the voice search button manually and if you ask something like "Who was the 23rd president of 
the United States", "What is the population of China" or whatever is supported, you will get spoken replies as you do with 
SIRI. For many questions about popular culture Google Search gives much better answers than SIRI and often where SIRI may say "I found 
this on the web about..." Google Voice will come up with a spoken answer. Of course it does not allow you to control your iPhone as in 
"Set my alarm for 6 am" or "Text John, I'll be there in 10 minutes" etc.


Regards,
Sieghard

Hello,
Isn't this just a standard search app?

Hi All,

So, I heard that the android's google voice, or whatever you call it, is 
available for IOS? Well, can someone please send me a link? I tried searching, 
but can't find her, either. I got Cortana, but will have to change some 
settings because of countries. Would the android one be the same?
