You can literally just talk to your PC - no need to click or type!

Copilot combines GPT-powered reasoning with voice — so instead of just giving commands, you can have an actual conversation.

How to enable “Hey Copilot” on your PC

  1. Open the Copilot app.
  2. Click/tap your avatar or account icon (bottom left or sidebar) → go to Settings.
  3. In Settings look for Voice mode (or similar) → toggle “Listen for ‘Hey, Copilot’ to start a conversation” option ON.
  4. Ensure your microphone is active and Windows shows the Copilot app may use it. The feature uses an on-device wake-word spotter (audio buffer) for “Hey, Copilot”.
  5. Test it out → “Hey Copilot, what’s the weather today?”
    and the Copilot voice UI should appear, indicating it’s listening.
