1. A method comprising:
recording, by a computing device associated with a user, audio data associated with a verbal request spoken by the user, the verbal request indicating a particular application to be launched on the computing device;
launching the particular application on the computing device;
receiving, at the computing device, from a remote service, a response to the verbal request, the response generated by the remote service by processing a symbolic representation of content of the verbal request; and
presenting, by the computing device, the response to the verbal request through an interface of the computing device as an output of the launched particular application.
 
11. A system comprising:
data processing hardware of a computing device associated with a user; and
memory hardware of the computing device, the memory hardware in communication with the data processing hardware and storing instructions that when executed by the data processing hardware cause the data processing hardware to perform operations comprising:
recording audio data associated with a verbal request spoken by the user, the verbal request indicating a particular application to be launched on the computing device;
launching the particular application on the computing device;
receiving, from a remote service, a response to the verbal request, the response generated by the remote service by processing a symbolic representation of content of the verbal request; and
