It sounds like the company is now blocking access from "bootleg" APKs.

I still don't know what this thing is supposed to do

Their idea was to replace a smartphone with a device that just connects to an LLM to do all your smartphone stuff via voice control.

If that sounds like a bad idea, congrats. Youre right.

It's an interesting futuristic concept, but LLMs, while pretty amazing in their current iteration, are nowhere near ready for that kind of work.

It's not an interesting concept. It's a terrible idea. I don't want to have to say everything I want my device to do. What about privacy? What about using your device in loud places? Everything this device claims to do, my phone can do significantly better and more conveniently. It's a cash grab exploiting people who need to buy the next device tech bros thrust on them just like all ai products.
