Сломал руку, купил Pixel 10, возненавидел Gboard и написал свой офлайн-голосовой ввод для Android на GigaAM v3

Написал полностью офлайновый голосовой ввод на русском для Android. Никаких серверов, подписок и привязок к аккаунтам. За распознавание отвечает открытая нейросеть GigaAM v3 от Сбера: модель зашита прямо в APK, работает без интернета и отлично расставляет знаки препинания.Главная фишка — не нужно отказываться от любимой клавиатуры со свайпом. Это не замена Gboard, а просто плавающая кнопка, которая появляется поверх любого поля ввода. Работает элементарно: тапнул — говоришь. Как только делаешь... Read more

We rarely come across two phones that are so similar. The newly launched Google Pixel 10a is unapologetically more or less the same phone as its predecessor, the Pixel 9a. This leaves those looking for an affordable Pixel this year in a quandary. Should you go for the newer model, or should you just save some money and get last year's.
