Full description
Transform old Tablets, Phones, or Wall Panels into a dedicated Home Assistant Voice satellite. Give old devices a new purpose: HAwake is ideal for wall-mounted panels or repurposing older hardware. It allows you to control your smart home entirely hands-free using custom wake words. Designed with privacy and performance in mind, it integrates directly with Home Assistant's Assist pipeline or API. Key Features: ◉ Always-Listening Wake Word: Uses efficient, on-device ONNX models to detect your wake word (e.g., "Hey Mycroft"). Perfect for continuous operation. ◉ Private & Secure: Audio never leaves your network unless you choose cloud services. ◉ Multiple Recognition Modes: HA Assist: Streams audio directly to your Home Assistant server for processing. Vosk (Offline): Fully local speech-to-text running entirely on your device. Google STT: Uses Android's native speech recognition for high accuracy. ◉ Resource Efficient: Intelligent "Voice Activity Detection" reduces CPU usage by ignoring silence — ideal for older hardware. ◉ Smart Restrictions: Optionally restrict listening to your home Wi-Fi to prevent accidental triggers while away. Requirements: ◉ A running Home Assistant instance. ◉ Android 8.0 or higher. ◉ (Optional) A Long-Lived Access Token from your HA profile. Setup Instructions: 1. Open HAwake and complete the Setup Wizard. 2. Grant the necessary Permissions. 3. Enter your Home Assistant URL, Login or use a Token. √ Start speaking! Note: This app is an independent project and is not affiliated with Nabu Casa or the official Home Assistant app.
