Wang Zan (@wangzan101): Mika is officially open source: a true Phone Agent that runs right on your Android phone.

Just tell it what you need, and it will get things done on your phone.

It uses your existing login sessions, with no additional authorization, no Root, and no computer required.

Keep using your phone while it works in the background, without getting in each other’s way. It notifies you when it’s done, and you can give it more tasks anytime, anywhere.
