I no longer have to say "Hey" before "Cortana"

[gtdad]

I can just say "Cortana" and it responds on my desktop pc. Is this something new?

I noticed mine does it too. I think it is because in the Cortana app she can learn to recognize your voice commands.

You have to have Cortana learn your voice in order for this to work, but I got it to work!! Much easier than saying hey Cortana

 

[HeyCori]

Gasp! I wish I used Cortana enough to do that.

It works on my Lumia 950, I'm going to try it on my Xbox one...

Noticed this on my Xbox already, didn't know if you train Cortana to you're voice it works on the phones too
