Description

From the listing uploaded by “appupdater”.

S. - Self-hosted E. - Extendable P. - Personal I. - Intelligent A. - Assistant SEPIA is a personal, digital assistant and daily companion that helps you organize your everyday life, finds information, entertains you and can control your smart home. The SEPIA app is operated via a voice interface for natural language or conventionally via touch, text & swipe (in case you can't speak right now). Inside the app you can create your own, powerful voice commands and UI-buttons. In combination with many available 'skins' (look of the app) you can make SEPIA a truly individual experience. Another special feature of SEPIA is that it respects your privacy by storing all data on your own SEPIA home server. The server runs on all popular systems (Windows, Mac, Linux), is 100% open-source (free) and can be extended with smart services and applications by you or the community. The installation usually doesn't take longer than 5-10 minutes (see below). The SEPIA App is part of the open-source SEPIA Framework, which was created to connect all kinds of devices (mobile phones, PCs, web browsers, loudspeakers, Raspberry PIs, IoT devices, robots etc.) and to equip them with a voice interface. It is a powerful tool for programmers, makers and DIY enthusiasts that want to add new capabilities to their projects while staying in their own private network/ecosystem. Because all components can be individually adapted, there are no limits to your imagination. More information can be found here: https://sepia-framework.github.io/ Of course everyone has to decide for themselves, but when used correctly they make life easier and are fun at the same time! :-) Here are a few examples to inspire you: Hey SEPIA, ... ... good morning ... wake me up in 30 minutes ... set the lights in the bedroom to 50% ... start my wake-up radio ... show me tech news ... how long does it take to get to work by car? ... remind me at 2 p.m. to ask my colleague for his cocktail recipe ... put pills for my headache on my shopping-list ... create new project to-do list ... set write a blog article on my project list ... how's the weather today? ... what is Culebra? ... show me pictures of Culebra ... search the web for flights to Culebra NOTE: Currently SEPIA can speak German and English and services like news are optimized for German. Feel free to edit the news outlets list for your country and contribute to SEPIA via GitHub :-) - 100% free and open-source - No advertising! - All data stored by SEPIA is located on your own server. - Use SEPIA via browser, mobile app or DIY homemade device and access your data from anywhere. - SEPIA was created with love for detail and will be constantly improved by a small, motivated team. - The framework can be extended by everybody To be fully functional this app needs its own SEPIA Server! The server runs on every common operating system, is available as Docker container and can be installed quickly (5-10min, recommended: Raspberry Pi). A detailed description can be found here: https://github.com/SEPIA-Framework/sepia-docs Additional info: https://medium.com/sepia-framework/hosting-your-own-private-virtual-assistant-533b86553d63 Since SEPIA is still at the beginning of it's journey there might be missing descriptions here and there or you might encounter smaller bugs. Please don't be angry with SEPIA ^_^ but help to improve it and report it here: https://github.com/SEPIA-Framework/sepia-docs/issues Have fun and enjoy SEPIA :-)

S.E.P.I.A. - Open Assistant APK: questions and answers

Can I install this APK over the version I already have?

Only if it is signed with the same certificate as the copy on your phone and isn't an older version. If Android says “App not installed”, the certificates differ; uninstalling your copy first works but deletes its data unless it is backed up.

Is the S.E.P.I.A. - Open Assistant APK safe?

No one can promise that a file is safe, but some things can be checked. The source store rates this file Trusted. After downloading, check that the file's MD5 is dc5a679013dcf91a334d362667e4a994.
