Siri in Android - SpeakToIt Assistant! Worth a try


Well how many of you Android Users are jealous about IPhone's SIRI? Not any more!!!
Android developers are working on numerous applications to replicate "Siri like" features. I have tried many, in fact all of them and choose SpeakToIt Assistant for Review.


Why did I choose this? Applications like Skyvi, Iris etc are having more features, but something makes this app stand out of the crowd, ever out-dates Siri. Most applications works only on Voice input and hardly google Voice helps Indian accent, while Speak To It can even get text to perform operations. 
"Alarm 7" sets the alarm to go at 7 A.M
"Call Sam" directs a call to the contact
"Read SMS" just starts reading the new messages
"Find Coffee Shop" takes me to the Map and lists all near by coffee shops
and many more. its not just for fun. But acts as a shortcut to most essential needs. Most important, its ad free and FREE!!


Plus
* Text Input via keyboard
*Understands all basic features
*Ad Free
*Free and easy to use


Minus
*Uses Google voice which sucks
*Database is still weak. Need to add a lot more.


Verdict
If you are jealous about iPhone Siri, this is the best in the market at least today!
