Tool insights
Andee carries out tasks inside Android apps on the phone itself, using the accessibility tree and screenshots to see what is on screen. The app is free, and the model it talks to is your choice.
Most phone assistants only work with apps that offer a built-in integration. Andee aims to cover apps that have no integration by operating them the way a person would.
Worth a look for developers and tinkerers with a spare Android 11+ phone who want an open-source, model-agnostic phone agent. Not suited to people who need a polished, supported product or who cannot accept the security caveats of experimental software.

Good to know
- It needs Android 11 or newer.
- It needs the accessibility service and display overlay permissions.
- It requires a real device. An emulator is not meaningful for it.
- Results depend on the app, the permissions granted and the device.
- It is experimental software with no warranty.
- The debug WebSocket server binds to 0.0.0.0:9008 without client authentication. Anyone on the same network could reach it, so treat this as a security risk and avoid untrusted networks.
- Because model calls go to the service you choose, the screen content it sends depends on that setup. Check the provider's data terms.
