Abstract
Various embodiments provide activation of virtual control buttons through verbal commands. In some embodiments, a computing device receives audio input, and, upon receiving the audio input, analyzes the audio input to identify an input command. The analysis can sometimes include voice authentication associated with a user. Upon identifying the input command, the computing device visually displays a virtual control button on a touchscreen display. In some embodiments, the computing device displays the virtual control button at a location corresponding to a current grip in contact with the touchscreen display.
