- There are two ways to access the Google Assistant app, you can either open the Google Assistant app from the app drawer or tap and hold the Home button of your phone.
- A small panel will appear that will ask you to say your command by starting it with phrases like “Okay Google” or “Hey Google”.
- You can also let “Hey Google” unlock your device when the Google Assistant recognizes your voice. To do so, head over to Settings, tap Assistant, turn on “Unlock with Voice Match”
- The main screen of the Google Assistant app features 3 main icons that give you quick access to Google Lens, Voice Search, and the virtual Keypad.
- There is also a separate icon that gives you access to Snapshot. This feature allows you to see all the important things you need to get done in one place and see suggested next actions to accomplish them.
- The app is intelligently designed that gives you the ability to take full control of your smart home devices using simple voice commands. To do so, integrate the Google Assistant app with other devices or applications such as Chromecast, Google Play Music, Spotify, Google Home devices, and more.
