Hi @Brian_Larry thanks for reaching out!

Mycroft for Raspberry Pi is called Picroft, and you can find more information here;

> **[Picroft - Mycroft](https://mycroft.ai/documentation/picroft/)**
>
> Learn about Mycroft for Raspberry Pi - Picroft. Build your own open source natural language processing based voice assistant.

The Android project for Mycroft isn’t as mature but you can find more info here:

> **[Mycroft for Android - Mycroft](https://mycroft.ai/documentation/android/)**
>
> Learn how to to build Mycroft for Android, using Android Studio, then sideloading this on to your Android device. Requires mycroft-core to connect to.

We haven’t seen anything yet that merges the two.

Kind regards,  
Kathy
