Transform old Tablets, Phones, or Wall Panels into a dedicated Home Assistant Voice satellite.

Give old devices a new purpose: HAwake is ideal for wall-mounted panels or repurposing older hardware. It allows you to control your smart home entirely hands-free using custom wake words. Designed with privacy and performance in mind, it integrates directly with Home Assistant's Assist pipeline or API.

Key Features:

◉ Always-Listening Wake Word: Uses efficient, on-device ONNX models to detect your wake word (e.g., "Hey Mycroft"). Perfect for continuous operation.
◉ Private & Secure: Audio never leaves your network unless you choose cloud services.
◉ Multiple Recognition Modes:
HA Assist: Streams audio directly to your Home Assistant server for processing.
Vosk (Offline): Fully local speech-to-text running entirely on your device.
Google STT: Uses Android's native speech recognition for high accuracy.
◉ Resource Efficient: Intelligent "Voice Activity Detection" reduces CPU usage by ignoring silence — ideal for older hardware.
◉ Smart Restrictions: Optionally restrict listening to your home Wi-Fi to prevent accidental triggers while away.

Requirements:

◉ A running Home Assistant instance.
◉ Android 8.0 or higher.
◉ (Optional) A Long-Lived Access Token from your HA profile.

Setup Instructions:

1. Open HAwake and complete the Setup Wizard.
2. Grant the necessary Permissions.
3. Enter your Home Assistant URL, Login or use a Token.
