Introduction

Perplexity, known for its AI-powered “answer engine,” has unveiled a new mobile assistant for Android. This cutting-edge assistant goes beyond answering questions by performing tasks like writing emails, booking rides, setting reminders, and more.

Key Features

Multimodal Capability

The assistant can interact with your screen, providing insights on visible content or objects identified through the camera. For example, it can recognize items like promotional Pokémon cards or initiate tasks based on screen content.

Task Automation

Users can leverage the assistant to open apps like Spotify, YouTube, or Uber and perform functions such as playing podcasts or booking rides. While the assistant supports popular apps, its current integration scope is limited, with more features in development.

Functionality Highlights

  • Replace your phone’s default assistant with Perplexity.

  • Access it via gestures or by holding the home button.

  • Use it for cross-app tasks like messaging, email, and clock functions.

Availability

The assistant is exclusively available for Android users. Perplexity hopes to bring the feature to iPhones if Apple grants the necessary permissions.

Conclusion

Perplexity’s new assistant represents a significant step forward in AI integration for smartphones, offering convenience and innovation. As its functionality expands, it could become a game-changer in the digital assistant space. For the latest updates, follow Kushal Bharat Tech News!
