Hi everyone,
I built HAwake to give old tablets and phones a job: a dedicated voice satellite for Home Assistant, mounted on the wall or lying around.
What it does:
- Always-listening wake word with on-device ONNX models (for example "Hey Mycroft"). There is a public training tool for custom wake words at github.com/IT-BAER/hawake-wakeword
- Three recognition modes: HA Assist (audio streamed to your Home Assistant), Vosk (fully offline on the device) or Android's native speech recognition.
- Voice activity detection so silence does not burn CPU on old hardware.
- Optional restriction to your home Wi-Fi so it does not trigger while you are away.
Needs a running Home Assistant instance and Android 8 or newer. Paid app, 2.99 USD one time, no subscription. Not affiliated with Nabu Casa or the official Home Assistant app. Docs at hawake.net/docs
Feedback welcome.
