Introducing Perplexity Assistant on iOS: the first time an AI app can answer questions and take basic actions on your iPhone: starting with playing media, drafting emails, moving meetings, booking rides, making reservations, setting reminders. Update your Perplexity app to try!

You can ask it to play anything: podcasts, hard to find videos, favorite songs. Even things like "play me the video of Katy Perry kissing the ground after landing from the rocket", or "baby shark donald trump version", or "podcast where andreessen discusses browsers with lex.

This one is still a bit janky and requires you to use Apple Mail and Apple Calendar, but it works well once you set it up. Reviewing your day, scheduling meetings, and sending emails just from your voice mode.

Research a place you want to go and directly call a ride there or navigate to the place.

Some things to keep in mind: 1. Apple Music is the default. Apple Mail is the default. We will add support for Gmail/G Calendar. 2. It will still take 3-4 seconds to connect when you turn on voice mode. We will try to shorten this. RTC issue.

You can customize your Action button on your iPhone to Perplexity Voice Mode to use this without having to open the app, just like how you use Siri.

🧠 Unified Search. Smarter Meetings. Effortless CRM. MightyBot is your AI agent platform for seamless workflows—record meetings, automate CRM updates, and find answers across apps in seconds. 🌟 Focus on what matters. We'll handle the grind.
