Many of you have probably tried all the Siri clones out there. Iris Vlingo, Speaktoit Assistant, the list just goes on and on. To me it just seems like a Siri clone is not going to cut it in the Android world. We have had this voice recognition technology since the beginning and now we are all looking for that technology to talk back to us.
So in comes Evi. She is the new dirty talker on the block. Evi not only works on the Android OS, but also works on iOS as well. So she isn’t picky. Always a good sign I guess. Evi comes from a company called True Knowledge, and taps into the true knowledge search engine when asked questions.
According to Tech Crunch, Evi seems to be a little better at putting information together than Siri. Mike Butcher put both ladies to the test by asking them to make an apple pie. Siri pulled some web info and Evi actually pulled some apple pie recipes. A voice recognition app that can cook? Dream come true! Evi also is more international based, unlike Siri who mainly sticks with US based search results. Only features Evi lacks though, is all those personal assistant features such as creating reminders, checking calendars or adding events to calendars. Butcher said though that Evi is coming along and will be getting those features and that it is still in its beta phase. Check out the video below for more information on what she does. So you going to give the new girl a try? Or are you over the whole Siri clones out there?

Nit-picking I know, but vlingo was around long before siri. It is not a clone by any stretch of the imagination.
