Software start-up Magnifis has announced the release of Robin, a voice-activated mobile assistant for Android devices.
“Robin is like a mashup of Siri and Waze. It’s a voice-controlled mobile app designed for drivers to use in their cars. Like Waze, it’s motion-activated rather than button-activated, which is easier for complying with distracted driving laws and using on the road, and it can proactively warn you about upcoming traffic or speed traps,” details CNET.
However, the post suggests that Robin is not a Siri-killer just yet, as Siri has the ability to send “text messages and play music, making it a true voice-activated mobile assistant,” while Robin focuses mostly on driving-related tasks such as learning the driving schedules and habits of the user.
Robin is still in beta, and available for free at the Google Play store.
