Sorry to hear you are having issues with Voice Actions for Chrome! If you right-click the toolbar button and open “Options”, does it display any more specific warnings? Also, are you able to use your microphone in other apps without issue?

Why no Microsoft Edge support?

As the name “Voice Actions for Chrome” and the extension being in the Chrome Web Store suggest, this extension is only thoroughly tested to work in Google Chrome. You are welcome to install it in other browsers, including Microsoft Edge, however because they (Microsoft and the developers of other Chrome-extension-compatible browsers) have made changes in the past that prevented Voice Actions for Chrome working, I can't guarantee it will work or will continue to after future Edge updates.

Very good, but the 'go to website' command gives me a redirect notice.

I agree, it is frustrating when that happens. Unfortunately, that is a limitation Google enforces of its “I'm Feeling Lucky” service. You can optionally change it in the extension options to use sites you have “installed” as Chrome apps. Additionally, the next version, coming later this year, will add DuckDuckGo's “I'm Feeling Ducky” service as another alternative.

Well, it just did not work at all. When clicking the mic, it says: An error occurred! I'm using Chromium browser of course, because the Google Chrome browser already has voice search function built-in so no need to add such a feature to it. So I must uninstall it for now. Hope you can get it working.

I see you updated your review to mention you are using an unofficial distribution of Chromium. Unfortunately, not all versions of Chromium include support for web speech recognition, so there is not a good way for this extension to support them (hence it being titled “Voice Actions for Chrome”).

Has potential, but on for me it would not work unless I clicked the extension mic to see the message 'now speak.'

Update on this: Voice activation is rolling out later this week, but to respect privacy concerns it is a separate add-on: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/gclpfolambnbjfeglhbjojolplnlpolg
