Hey all,

Just for fun I asked BlackBerry Assistant on my Passport if it was better than Siri, and the answer was quite funny I thought.

Just wanted to share.

"Yes but I might be biased"

[Prem WatsApp]

Yep, heard (about) that one...
Try it!

That would make you an extremely lonely individual.

Nope just let my four year old daughter ask the pa some random questions to keep her entertained for a short while.

I find BB Assistant quite good compare to Google now or Siri. Yes it could use some improvement like speed but other then that I'm quite happy with it. I barely use Siri on my iPad and with my last Samsung Galaxy phone, I hated using Google now because when I speak out loud in public the results where never accurate so I have to repeat myself and yell into my phone. Frustrating and embarrassing when you're in public. With BB Assistant I can quietly type my search in public places now. Hehe.

BlackBerry assistant has improved in the speed in which it returns results. I guess this happened in the last few OS updates. Prior to reading this thread I had not used BlackBerry assistant for quite a while due to the fact I found it really slow.
But pleasantly surprised that it works much faster.

Siri is still better than BlackBerry assistant. Assistant may have a larger functionality than Siri, but Siri is much more fluid.

I use siri more than I use BlackBerry PA, I like the hands free while it is charging. Just say hey siri then get her to do what I want. I haven't even thought if the BlackBerry PA can do that, maybe I will try after. Having a name really is a good idea.

I don't see the point in shouting at my phone I just open the app I want and do what I want!
Mind you I found a random app the other day on my passport, you press a load of numbers and people actually talk to you Through it? Ugh what's that all about?

Swiped on my beautiful Passport!

[fattyacid]

I heard about that app, seems interesting.

You can type on Google now too.

LOL... yep.

[thymaster]

Not the same experience. BlackBerry is far bar. That's just my opinion.

My BlackBerry assistant is asking for a raise, and maternity leave entitlement!

I just set-up a cheap Windows 'phone for my wife, and Cortana is really very good. Blackberry Assistant is utterly useless, however. It almost never works for me. Is there a magic fix? I have 10.3.1.1565, but Assistant now seems even worse than the previous iteration!

While driving, I tap my phone on my Smart tag, and then ask the Assistant to Play Music. Works like a charm. I have used it for many other things and been happy. My husband yells at his Google Now. We just ask him to type, lol.

I can't get the NFC to launch the Assistant. It's the only thing that I don't see in the write to NFC programing options to launch certain apps...

Sing me a song -

Assistant - you don't want to hear me sing

I'm finding the assistant has improved immensely.
