I built an Android assistant that can actually use your apps

Reddit r/AI_Agents Products

Summary

A developer built Marvis, an Android app that acts as a voice-controlled agent capable of operating other apps on the phone—tapping, typing, scrolling, and switching between apps—with interruptible task execution and safety confirmations. It is distributed outside Google Play due to restrictions on smartphone-use agents.

I built an app called Marvis. It’s basically a computer-use agent for smartphones, but much faster and actually usable day to day. You can tell it things like “order an iced latte from Starbucks” or “find the address in my messages and navigate there,” and it will operate the actual apps on your phone by tapping, typing, scrolling, and switching between apps. You can also interrupt it while it is working by saying “Marvis” and redirect the task. For example, “Marvis, change that to an iced coffee.” Touching the screen pauses it, and it asks for confirmation before sending messages, making payments, deleting things, or doing anything else that is difficult to undo. If you are into automation or assistant agents, check it out. I honestly think it is the best Android assistant available right now, including what Google is doing with Gemini. A lot of engineering and research went into making it fast, accurate, and natural enough to actually use every day. If you are interested, visit our product hunt (link in the comment). You can watch our demo video here. p.s. Google Play would not allow it on their store because they apparently do not allow smartphone-use agents, so I ended up publishing it through a few third-party Android markets instead. Which is pretty frustrating because Google is clearly building the same kind of thing with Gemini Intelligence, while third-party developers are not allowed to distribute it through Google Play.
