When iOS’s awe-inspiring Siri app debuted, it felt something straight out of sci-fi movies and instantly took the world by storm. The concept of your phone literally becoming an intelligent virtual companion was absolutely ingenious and became the hottest choice of conversation in the tech market. It did almost everything and was a perfect substitute for a friend. Well not quite a friend, but a technological genius that’ll accompany you wherever you go and tell you what to do in a way you would like it. So we can fairly say it is a revolution all the others have envied, especially Android users who had everything else and more to compete with iPhones.

After a string of poorly executed campy Siri knock-offs, the Android platform was introduced to Robin – a real contender to Siri. Robin is the ultimate voice assistant for your Android phone that will tell you almost everything you want to know.

Need to navigate through traffic? Robin will use its GPS tracking system and tell you the best route to get out of it.

Want to know the coolest restaurants and places to grab a bite in the vicinity? Not a problem, Robin looks into the net and analyzes your location to give you the best results.

One of the coolest features is gesture activation. All you got to do is swipe your hand over the screen twice and Robin comes up. Developers suggest the “Double brush” gesture which makes you brush your hands over the screen slightly for best result. Robin never even accesses your personal data without your permission.

You can do this even when you are on any other application.
