Abstract
A wireless communication device may include logic configured to receive a voice request via a microphone; convert the received voice request into a text request; and send the text request to a results processing system. The logic may receive information corresponding to one or more cards from the results processing system, wherein a particular one of the one or more cards is associated with a category associated with the voice request and display a card or series of cards, wherein the cards includes a list of items associated with a category or wherein the cards are identified as relevant by the user while making the selection.

A method, performed by a wireless communication device, the method comprising:
- receiving, by the wireless communication device, a voice request via a microphone;
- converting, by the wireless communication device, the received voice request into a text request;
- sending, by the wireless communication device, the text request to a results processing system;
- receiving, by the wireless communication device, information corresponding to one or more cards from the results processing system in response to the text request, wherein each of the one or more cards is associated with a category associated with the voice request;
- displaying, by the wireless communication device, a first card of the one or more cards as a rectangular visual object manipulable by a user to change at least any two of a size, position, orientation, or order of the rectangular visual object, wherein the first card includes a list of items associated with a first category, wherein each one of the list of items includes a link to at least one of another one of the one or more cards or a link to an application installed on the wireless communication device;
- receiving, by the wireless communication device, a selection of an item from the list of items included in the first card;
- determining, by the wireless communication device, that the selected item corresponds to a link to another of the one or more cards;
- and
- displaying, by the wireless communication device, the other one of the one or more cards, in response to determining that the selected item corresponds to the link to the other one of the one or more cards.
