hey guys this is Eric Franklin from cement I'm at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona Spain right now I'm looking at indigo from artificial solutions it's a personal voice assistant similar to Siri or Google now but the difference here is it works across different OSS that means Android Windows 8 and soon iOS what's the weather forecast in Barcelona this week this is indigo on Windows Phone 8 this your interface you can kind of scroll through and kind of see some of the anything you have set like these are some alarms notes some of your favorites like you know tell me a joke some of the things you say most commonly and then your reminders it's got a neat that each version of indigo is kind of tailored to the OS it's running on it kind of kind of looks like it looks like it looks appropriate on the OS is running on so you can change your gender so you can have a female voice talking to you or if you want you can have a male voice reacting to your questions you can change the color the backgrounds and stuff like that this thing's pretty customizable actually right now this version is optimized for English that's English English not necessarily American English so it may be having trouble hearing me and also it's very loud in here right now but you can change that you can change that easily through the settings you can go in and change it to US English and you can have the response have a US accent or an English accent as well kind of an example of its kind of cross-functionality is that you can ask it on android like tell me about restaurants in barcelona it'll give you a list of restaurants in barcelona sort it from yelp and they'll give you like the top eight you can pick one and then switch to your Windows Phone eight and just say give me directions there and it'll remember which restaurant you were interested in and give you directions to that restaurant it's pretty kind of pretty cool indigo is available now on Android Windows 8 and on your browser at hello - indigo comm look for it on iOS in the first quarter of twenty 13's Eric Franklin again reporting from the World Congress
