By the way, this is an open source project and if you're curious about the code, you can check it here.

I would go on mock up a design in Figma of the app, setup speech recognition using this package, list out all the features I wanted and setup android permissions for making calls, sending messages and so on... But I was met with a great hurdle again. Setting a conversation system like the one google assistant has was difficult. It took over a week and many re-writes to finally decide and implement an architecture for the conversation system. Again I don't wont to go into details of its workings but you can check out this folder on the repository to get a feel. Be warned the code is not pretty. After the base was laid down, I could add any feature I wanted to the app, and I went wild and totally ignored the target demographic. I added jokes, quotes, memes, games and other silly things. But most importantly the core things work like making a call, sending a text message, sending an email, sending a WhatsApp message and opening apps. I would say I was somewhat successful in simulating an AI system as one Data Scientist was convinced I was using some sort of machine learning and AI after seeing a demo of the app. Of course the app is not perfect so if you have some time to burn you can make a pull request to improve, fix or add features to the app, you know, just for fun. You can get it on playstore here or on github here

The app is open source. https://github.com/Patrick-web/gabby. And as stated below, I guess there is no better alternative to playstore so I'll just use Intent as suggested by someone else.
