About this app

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.

Smart camera. Point the camera at anything and see what happens. The smart camera recognizes objects, tells you about them, suggests where you can buy them, translates text, opens QR codes, and even works as a scanner.

Alice. The Yandex voice assistant can answer any question and help you with everyday tasks: set a timer and remind you of things to do, tell you about the weather and traffic, play with children, tell them a fairy tale, or sing them a song. Alice can also control smart home devices or just chat with you, almost like a regular person.

Free caller ID. Turn on caller ID in the settings menu or say: "Alice, turn on the caller ID." This way, you can see who's calling even if the number isn't in your contacts list. It relies on a database of more than 5 million organizations and user feedback to save you time and help avoid unwanted calls.

Product search. Ask: "Alice, where's it cheaper?" And say what you want to buy. Alice will search for the product in dozens of thousands of marketplaces, supermarkets, and small local stores, compare prices, and show you the best offer. All you'll have to do is go to the store and buy it, and you won't spend too much.

Accurate weather forecast. Detailed hourly forecast for today with a dynamic map that shows precipitation, wind, temperature, and atmospheric pressure. Daily and weekly forecasts with detailed information about wind speed, atmospheric pressure, and humidity. Special modes with useful weather information for fishermen, gardeners, and more.

Ratings and reviews

I like yandex. I have the yandex with protect also. Why don't you let me use as guard like your other app? The adblocker you have needs work. Please let the people use adguard with this app. Other than that its a great app. But you can make it better with adguard. That's the only thing I don't like about this app. Other than that I live it.

So glad I came back to using Yandex. Had so much trouble with MS and Google when logging into any of my sites. This makes it easier. Emails are organised for you, junk and spam mail are unnoticed as they are instantly placed in the Spam folder and you only realise they're there when 'Empty' appears next to Spam folder. Highly recommend as the browser crashes less, updates frequently and extensions are available.

Yandex already has a good translator app, so it would be nice if Alice was available for English speakers. She should speak with Russian accent & have multiple voice options available, like the Screaming Russian Garden Gnome Assistant voice from funny videos. I know I could just use American assistant apps, but I don't trust them & I feel more comfortable with Russian tech companies. America lies. 🤷

What's new

Subtle but important changes: fixed internal bugs in the app. Now it works even better and faster.
