Is this voice assistant something I can install on Android? I didn't realize there was any alternative to Google or Siri (or Bixby).
Mycroft (afaik now called "ovos"), and the home assistant internal one come to mind
I believe you can! You don't need this product though. See https://www.home-assistant.io/voice_control/android/
If you use Home Assistant you can configure the voice assistant to be the default one for android yes. Mine only does control and statuses for my local devices, can't ask questions or anything but that's probably configurable.
