Evi to Siri

Siri a voice-recognition capabilities on your phone just became a possibility to Android and iPhone users. Evi is a $.99 app for iPhones and it totally free for Android users. Evi is a less expense version of Siri.
Siri can schedule meetings on your phone and dictate text messages, while Evi can not. Evi is quiet helpful at finding restaurants, local shops, and general information. Evi is slower than Siri and is not synced to other apps like Siri but it looks like in the future True Knowledge, the company behind Evi, might upgrade it to do some of this.
Evi voice is said to be similar to Siri. Some even say it annoying. Sometimes it says there no response from the severs, but then, your answer appears.
Siri is use by many to schedule appointments and calls. But also many like it for its depth of knowledge and wit Siri contains. Kate Freeman said, “Ask Siri to tell me about the Civil War and it directs me to a related link.” While ask Evi and you get a limited response that includes the data and a small picture.
Siri has built-in cleverness, and so, to find out if Evi has built-in cleverness. Freeman ask Evi, “What’s my name?” It responded with, “Who are you? Surely you know the answer.”
