Sara Introduced As Latest Siri Clone, Best Alternative Works On All iOS Devices [Jailbreak Tweak]
SPONSORED LINKS
Back in October, Apple launched the iPhone 4S running the highly anticipated iOS 5 firmware version. Ever since Siri was first introduced on the iPhone 4S, leaving the older iPhone versions, coders and developers were working hard to get Siri ported on the iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, iPad 1, iPad 2 and iPod touches 3rd and 4th Generation devices.
The developer teams made a great achievement by releasing the iOS 5.0.1 untethered jailbreak in December, and of course so the following month when the A5 Absinthe jailbreak was unveiled for the iPhone 4S and the iPad 2.
Still the Spire made its place as the best way to install Siri on an unsupported devices, also released in December after untether jailbreak 5.0.1 arrived. Which requires users to connect to a proxy server in order for various commands to be answered by Apple’s pocket share, when installing or using Spire Siri clone.
Still there wasn’t any application or a Cydia tweak available to install Siri on the older iOS devices. Now a Vietnamese developer came to the scene with a new jailbreak tweak called Sara. This free voice recognition utility takes it a little further than merely setting reminders or driving users crazy with nonsensical conversation, and appears to be much more versatile – allowing users to train it to accept new commands similar to the open virtual assistant Siri.
Sara (also called Siri clone) works on iPhone 4S, iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, iPhone 3G, iPad 1G, iPad 2, iPod touch 4G. The graphic and user interface of Sara is almost the same as Siri. The feature set remains impressive indeed, the clincher being its ability to scan barcodes and QR codes and indicating which businesses in a user’s locale sell that particular product or service.
The most interesting thing about Sara is that it works in a variety of countries outside from the States, and available in no fewer than 37 languages, which all happened only a month’s development.
Since Sara jailbreak tweak packs loads of advanced features such as controls your PC, launch applications, search for songs, et cetera, iPhone 4S users can also give it a shot.
For those who were unable to install Siri via Spire and Proxy server on their jailbroken iOS devices must consider installing this free Sara cydia app. Follow our complete step by step guide below waiting for you:
