Samosa-AI released Gotcha, an on-device AI copilot for Android distributed as an APK through GitHub Releases with in-app updates thereafter. It exposes more than 100 device tools and runs in two modes: Monitor, restricted to 40+ read-only tools for screen reading and device inspection, and Operator, which can send messages, place calls, control media and drive screen automation. Actions are gated across four permission tiers, from everyday battery and app-launch access up to Tier 4 root shell actions that fail closed on unrooted devices, with an append-only audit log and encrypted on-device credentials. A floating Assistive Ball triggers push-to-talk voice sessions via long-press or "Hey Gotcha". Users can sign in with Samosa AI for free starter credits or connect their own local or cloud LLM.
