Everything you need on one screen: Alice voice assistant, detailed weather forecast, top news, transit map, and TV listings. Find information even faster with the smart search bar and voice search.

Smart camera. Point it at anything! It identifies items, tells you what it sees, and suggests where to buy the same thing. It also scans documents and translates text.

Caller ID. Turn on caller ID in the settings menu to see who’s calling, even if they’re not in your contacts. It relies on a database of more than 5 million organizations and user feedback to save you time and help avoid unwanted calls. Available on Android 6.0 and higher.

Convenient keyboard. Smart and accurate auto-correct, support for swipe and voice input, emoticons, GIFs and stickers, plus a built-in translator.

Russian-speaking voice assistant. Navigate your day with Alice — she can give you the weather or traffic info, suggest where to eat out or pick up groceries, set alarms and reminders, look something up online, or even tell you a story or chat about whatever’s on your mind. Alice is continually adapting with deep learning-based AI. To set Alice as your default assistant, open the Settings menu on your device, go to Assist & Voice Input and choose Yandex.

Smart devices. You can activate Yandex.Station in the Yandex app and control it with voice commands to dim the lights, turn on the TV, or make the music louder. Yandex Smart Home works with dozens of smart devices. To connect devices, select Devices in the settings menu.
