What is it?

DSH-Android packages the DeepSeek Harness (dsh) agent engine into a single APK for Android 10 and later on arm64 devices. You type or speak a task such as listing the largest files in Downloads, and the agent carries it out on the phone. Device abilities cover file search and organization, reading text from PDF, Word, Excel and PowerPoint files, screen reading and tapping through the accessibility service, toggling Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Do Not Disturb and other settings, and reading or replying to notifications.

The engine runs inside the app process as a native Node 24 library started from a foreground service, so no proot, Termux or root access is required. Optional Shizuku integration unlocks additional system switches. Scheduled and condition-based automations can trigger on events such as connecting to Wi-Fi, starting to charge, arriving at a location or receiving a notification.

Besides DeepSeek, the app can connect to OpenAI-compatible endpoints and several other model providers by entering an API key and choosing a model.
