Hey iPhone folks, gather ’round! 🎧 There’s this new voice assistant making waves, and guess what? It’s all about getting things done, not just yapping. Perplexity, that slick AI conversational search engine, has just hit the iOS scene, and boy, does it bring the heat. 🔥
Why’s this a big deal? Well, imagine asking it to book you a table at that fancy new restaurant, and it just… does it. No kidding. It jumps into OpenTable, plugs in your deets, and all you gotta do is tap ‘confirm.’ 🍽️ Or say you’re trying to find that one epic scene in a YouTube video—describe it vaguely, and Perplexity nails it. Just like that. 🎬
Now, let’s not get carried away—Perplexity’s got its quirks. You still need to open the app and hit the mic to start the convo. And yeah, it won’t set your alarms or shush your notifications (for now). But here’s the kicker: it gets your lazy, rambly requests and actually moves on them. Like, ask about event sign-ups, and it might just fill in the blanks for you. 📅
Meanwhile, Siri’s over there playing ‘I found this on the web’ like it’s 2010. 🙄 Sure, Apple’s playing catch-up, but Perplexity? It’s already in the game, making moves. With hooks into OpenTable, YouTube, and more, it’s the assistant that rolls up its sleeves and gets to work.
So if Siri’s leaving you hanging and you crave an assistant that’s more doer, less talker, Perplexity’s your go-to. Just don’t ask it to snap pics for you—yet. 📸
