Hey Cortana!
Set Cortana to hear you anytime you say "Hey Cortana." Select the search
box on the taskbar to open Cortana home. Then
select
Notebook > Settings and turn on Let Cortana respond when you say
"Hey Cortana."
Note:
Cortana is only available in certain countries/regions, and some Cortana
features might not be available everywhere. If Cortana isn't available or is
turned off, you can still use search.
Try this: Set a reminder
One of the things Cortana can do for you is to give you reminders. For
example, type or say, "Remind me to call Alex at 2 PM." Make the meeting
recurring if you want to.
