Voice User Interfaces have become an increasingly popular way for people to interact with technology.
Voice User Interface (VUI) are interfaces that allow interaction with products and services using voice commands in natural language. VUIs are an essential part of the voice enabled products like Siri, Google Home, and Amazon Alexa.

When designing for Voice User Interfaces many of the same Interaction Design principles apply. For example, feedback.
