On the official Google... Google+ page,
Google announced today that the newest version of Search for Android
will now allow you to call or text contacts merely by uttering their
relationship to you.
For example, saying "call Mom" will now begin a telephone call to
whichever contact you've marked as having that relationship to you. If
you've merely put in "Mom" as a contact, Google will just call that.
However, if you don't yet have a contact marked, an interface allowing
you to select the person you want to associate with that relationship
will then appear. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem there's any kind of
interface for managing these relationships just yet.
So far, the feature supports the standard extended family
designations (at least in English, it seems the feature is limited in
geographic scope at launch) and relationships - father / dad, mother /
mom, brother, sister, cousin, niece, nephew, aunt, uncle, grandmother /
grandma, grandfather / grandpa, wife, husband, girlfriend, and
boyfriend. There may be more, of course. For those relationships with
more than one possible designation, saying either form will complete the
action. In-laws and step-relatives don't yet appear to be supported, or
cousins three-times removed.
The feature shouldn't require any update to the version of Search on
your phone - this has been enabled on the backend by Google.
