Move Over Siri - Android's Personal Assistant

Siri for iPhone is not the only personal digital assistant. Android users have one for them as well.

Speaktoit Assistant offers most, if not all of the same features. There are over 54 thousand reviews to help you decide if this is right for you. Download the app and place a widget toolbar on your home screen.  You will have  a digital assistant shown on your screen when you press the button.  Options include changing sex, voice sound (Usa or UK accents) and even change the look of your assistant. I choose a female with the UK voice.

Once you get your assistant set up the way you want it, try different commands.
Commands include calender commands like setting and checking, you can make calls and text, you can open apps, search the web and so much more. More commands are shown in the screenshots and they are constantly adding more with every update. Your assistant can even learn from you by picking up on your needs and habits.

Personally, I enjoy the android better due to more personal customizability. So next time an iPhone user uses Siri, you no longer have to wish you had that feature. I hope you enjoy your personal assistant as much as I do.
