Robin - the Siri Challenger is Android's answer to Apple's Siri app. Like Siri, Robin is an intelligent personal assistant that responds to spoken queries with natural language. And, like Siri, Robin is best on the go: giving directions, finding restaurants and movie showings, and opening and closing apps. Robin by Robin Labs is free for Android 2.1 and up.

Pros

Wave hello: Waving "hello" twice or brushing the top of your device activates Robin. There's also a Floating button widget for quick access.

Quick response: Robin searched and responded quickly. Robin launched apps smoothly, too. The app's female voice simulation is pleasant.

Travel: Excellent 3D navigation, map views, and quick access menus for Traffic, Weather, Parking and Gas, and other common objectives (including Fun) make Robin a boon traveling companion.

Cons

Google it: For Web searches, it's sometimes faster to speak directly into Google than have Robin open your browser. If Robin's already open, it's about as quick either way.

Smart, but: Robin is a better navigator than research librarian. The app didn't always grasp requests accurately, such as when we asked for a website of Winston Churchill quotations, and we got a single quote instead.

Bottom Line

Robin -- The Siri Challenger responded quickly, calmly, and accurately to most of our requests, especially those related to travel or navigation. That's when you need an intelligent assistant the most. Use Google for nerdier knowledge (like famous quotes). But ask Robin for directions.

Developer’s Description

By Robin Labs
Use a personal assistant that can be both useful and fun.

** CNET: "... Siri has breadth, but Robin has depth" ! **

Robin, by Audioburst, is your voice assistant on the go.

Keep your eyes on the road while Robin plays your favorite audio content from top podcasts and radio stations.

Whatever your interests - NBA, celebs, history, politics, design, gourmet food - just tell Robin and she'll build you a playlist.

And when you need to make a quick call or get directions Robin can do that too.

Hands-free features including:

* Personalized playlist including traffic, weather and local news reports. Just say "play my personal playlist"

* Topical playlists - Ask for news on any of these popular categories: Sports, Entertainment, News, World News, Health, Science, Business or Tech

* Send a text by voice, set reminders & alarms

* Get directions, locate parking lots and gas stations around you.

* Post, view and share from Facebook

Robin is a personal assistant that can be both useful and fun, constantly learning and adapting to you. Just tap the microphone button and Robin will be all ears.

Notes

----------------------------

- Robin is currently in Beta - she's still a student. That means you can watch her intelligence evolve daily and even get to contribute a little. Come be a part of the experience!

* Permissions:

Robin will never email your contacts without your knowledge!

To set reminders she'll need permission to access your calendar, and to Gmail for email narration - that's all!

- Having trouble with a particular location? Missing a point of interest? Any other issue?

For best results, give your feedback to Robin from right within the app - just say 'feedback'.
