dicio-android

What it does

Answers spoken requests - the weather, a timer, a search - interpreting the request and generating the reply on the phone itself, so what you say is not sent anywhere. Results come back both spoken and on screen, and its capabilities can be extended with skills. Japanese is not among the fourteen supported languages as of August 2026, and the skill set is basic compared with the large commercial assistants. Android only.

Summary based on the project's own description. The Japanese page has a fuller beginner guide: setup difficulty, what to prepare, and a step-by-step start.
