About this app

Download the beta version of the Yandex with Alice app and be the first to learn about and test its new features, give feedback, and have a hand in the development. If you already have the Yandex with Alice app installed, you don't have to delete it: the beta version can run side-by-side with the standard one.
The Yandex with Alice app makes life easier. The home screen has everything you need: the weather, traffic, and quick search. To find information even faster, install the app widget.

Quick search with smart hints and Alice, who will answer any question. Search in Yandex however you prefer: by typing your query in the search bar, by asking Alice out loud, or by taking photos with the Smart camera. The app can also tell you who's calling when it's an unknown number, help save on expensive purchases, explain complex problems, and perform everyday tasks.

Text and voice search. Search however you prefer: with the usual text queries, quick suggestions, and instant results, or by voice if you don't feel like typing.

Voice assistant. Alice is always there for you and ready to lend a hand. She'll tell you the traffic and whether you should take an umbrella, recommend the nearest supermarket or a restaurant for dinner, set an alarm or reminder, and find anything you need on the internet. You can chat with Alice as if she were a real person: she tells stories, makes jokes, and can hold a conversation on any topic. To make Alice your default assistant in the smartphone and call her with one button, go to settings, tap Assistant and voice input, and choose Yandex.

Free caller ID. See who's calling even if the number isn't on your contact list. Configure it to automatically block spam and you'll never even know there was a call. Caller ID is available for smartphones running Android 10.0 and later.

The beta version is a platform for testing the app's new features. It is intended for experienced users who are ready to report bugs and problems. Send your feedback directly through the app menu or to support@mobyandex.yandex.ru. Together, we'll make the app even better!
