You can get wakewords from Kitt.AI or Sensory. Tried them both, sensory seemed more reliable.

@KushtrimPacaj Did you combine these two wakeword engins with AlexaAndroid? Can you describe what you did? Can you post an example of your code. It would be much appreciated.

@Ehsanta83 See this https://github.com/Kitt-AI/snowboy/tree/master/examples/Android for Kitt.Ai.

For Sensory, I'm afraid you'll have to contact them directly.

To combine them with this library, on the callback from wakeword lib, just "click" the alexa button.

@KushtrimPacaj Thank you. I did the same thing with another library. Another problem is end of speech detection. I want it to be complete handsfree. Do you have any idea about end of speach detection? I would like not to click the button at the end of speech.

@Ehsanta83 A simple way is included in this library ( check the method here ): https://github.com/willblaschko/AlexaAndroid/blob/35f259b9e1484b340498312ea0ba5bf6a2ddaca2/libs/speechutils-master/app/src/main/java/ee/ioc/phon/android/speechutils/AbstractAudioRecorder.java#L217

It's not optimal, so you might have to tinker with it to get the result you want
