The voice assistant Siri left no one indifferent after its presentation alongside the iPhone 4S Since then, many developers have tried to apply this formula to their applications so that users of other platforms could have this service. Evi is one of these assistants that has managed to gain a foothold, and it is that in addition to working on Android mobiles, also does it on iPhone, and also has an addition that sets it apart from the rest.
This is a tool relatively useful and easy to use However it is not very functional , at least still in Spain, since it only has local information in England and in United States With this limitation, Spanish users can use Evias a voice search engine, capable of presenting information, but above all, capable of directing the user to web pages related to the query raised
As soon as the application starts, Evi starts up to resolve user doubts. The good thing about this application is that it has two methods: oral and written In this way, it is possible to ask questions a through the keyboard of the terminal in case of being in an environment with too much noise, where it is not possible to issue the order orallyIn any case, when you ask a question, the application automatically searches for the solution and displays it on the screen, just below the question.
Being an application based on Internet, it is able to display the data found anywhere page through the application screen, thus avoiding having to leave it or use the browser. In addition, this allows us to adapt some content such as direct responses, schedules or even maps, in the answer screen. However, in most cases, it is common for Evi to respond with a address to a web pagewhere the information requested by the user can be found.
The point in favor of this application lies in its artificial intelligence And it is that Evi learns with the use and qualifications that the user can give the answers.With each of them, a hand is presented with positive sign (I like it) and another with a negative, being able to choose if the information presented is useful for the user . The more use is made of the application, the better its efficiency. So much so, that it is possible to talk with Evi, according to its developers.
The negative point of this application lies in its lack of functionality , at least for the Spanish market It is an application that is still a bit green when it comes to presenting the relevant information in a language that is not the English, so for Spanish works almost exclusively as a search engine The application Evi is developed for mobile phones Android and for iPhone However, it can only be downloaded completely free for the first ones through the Android MarketUsers of iPhone and iPod Touch need to shell out some less than 1 euro to be able to purchase this assistant through iTunes
