Is there a way to issue a voice command something like:

OK GOOGLE ASK XXX Some App Specific Question or Command

And have it launch "APP" with the recognized text: "Some App Specific Question or Command"

My app has speech recognition as a service ... but when using my APP I can't ask questions that OK Google can handle ...

Through the Voice Actions API, your app can register for system actions, one of which is 'search' (so you could do 'search for Some Question or command on APP').

In the past, some developers were able to submit a custom voice action request. Upon approval, users could do a specific action with your app via voice. This is no longer an option.
