iris - siri for android

[rsk11584]

Iris, a Siri lookalike, was put together in just eight hours and is now available in the Android App store. It raises a lot of questions, only some of which as easy to answer.


Siri, the natural languages understanding app that answers your questions, is supposed to be the advantage that the iPhone 4S has, not only over other models of the iPhone, but every other mobile device on the planet.

I bet someone will come out and say "Only a rocket scientist can use it"

The name should have been unique, instead of just reversing SIRI! (S-I-R-I => I-R-I-S)
Anyway, IRIS sounds better..

[ejvyas]

Its useless. Does not do anything. I just tried the latest version

[doomgiver]

a kick in apples' apples. good job, guys

It's still in alpha stage

[max_snyper]

Its still is in alpha stage...but it does calling,search anything,tells weather of any place,answers silly question...!!!!
Its a clever programming...putting together at least 25% what SIRI does is some serious stuff..that too in 8 hours of programming.
For those who don't understand programming...its not as easy as pulling a rabbit out of the hat...there's a whole load of complex algorithms working there...so stop bashing and applause the effort of the programmers...
when this "IRIS" goes stable its gonna rock...!

Well, checked it out, it's nice..!! But I guess it needs more modifications, specially on voice recognitions. Otherwise it's not going to work on Indian Pronunciations

[ejvyas]

It's still in alpha stage

So we cant compare it with Siri as of now
Many things are in alpha or dev phase but we cant talk about such things unless they are released

[Vyom]

Well, if IRIS isn't the aap, Majel might be it!
Majel, contender of SIRI is being developed by Google itself, and I have a hunch, it's really going to beat the crap our of SIRI very soon!
