Google Assistant

Google assistant is Google’s own, voice controlled, AI-powered assistant for Android devices. Much like Siri for Apple, Bixby for Samsung and Cortana for Microsoft. The Google assistant can carry out a lot of actions for you like send text messages, make google searches, call phone numbers saved on your phone and a whole lot more. The Google assistant learns over time and gives the best answer as time goes on. With each update, the Google assistant gets even Smarter and better at carrying out your requests.

The latest update brought about 8 different voices to the google assistant and you can choose anyone you like. To access the google assistant, you’ll have to press and hold the home button till it pops up. If it is your first time Accessing it then you will be prompted to say “Ok Google” about 3 three times so the Google assistant would recognize your voice and come up when next you say it. Instead of pressing the home button.

If your Android device doesn’t have the Google assistant installed then you can install it from the Google Play Store before we begin. Also if you have it before you might also want to head to the Google play store to get it updated to the latest version.
