Perplexity Android app will come pre-installed on all new Motorola devices. And, we've worked together with @moto to optimize Perplexity Assistant for the Moto Razr, so that you can invoke it with the fold screen shut. New purchases will come with 3 months of Perplexity Pro.

Battling Google's dominance and stronghold of what apps go into Android is a massive challenge. We had to do this through building a much better native Assistant than Gemini, and finiding an agile partner in Motorola to give consumers a great end user experience.

@Moto You're just a fucking legend! No matter what happens in the future, you will forever be a favorite in this AI world! Would love to meet you somwday soon, @AravSrinivas

@Moto Wow, that's amazing! Finally, a built-in, true AI assistant. This will open more opportunities which were restricted as an app.

@Moto Very interesting that you choose to release the iOS version of the app before this full integration into this phone.

@Moto That’s a great move, to bring it in the dominant path. I hope to see this in other phones too!

@Moto google sold motorola to lenovo in 2014, but the right partnerships still lead to cool outcomes.

@Moto Perplexity on a flip phone feels like 2030 and 2005 shook hands.

@Moto A great strategy to introduce people to perplexity, also to dilute the monopoly. Excited to see how this approach turns out.

@Moto Lovely and all the very best!

@Moto Good 👍

@Moto awesome! however, @perplexity_ai still cannot control devices by voice like @GeminiApp currently does. Do you have any solution for that?

@Moto Excited to see how users respond to this.

@Moto So it's just an additional app? I would think sales will slow down if they remove the Google ecosystem.

@Moto how hard would it be for them to add voice activation?

@Moto Great news
