Google Assistant: Your Hands-Free Helper.

Get instant help with everyday tasks using just your voice. Google Assistant makes it easy to:

- Control your phone: Open apps, adjust settings, turn on the flashlight, and more.
- Stay connected: Make calls, send texts, and manage emails without lifting a finger.
- Get things done: Set reminders, create lists, ask questions, and find directions.
- Manage your smart home: Control lights, thermostats, and other devices from anywhere.*

New! Now you can also opt in to Gemini (formerly Bard) from Google Assistant and have it act as your primary assistant from Google on your phone.

Gemini is an experimental AI assistant that gives you direct access to Google’s best family of AI models unlocking new ways to assist you, while still incorporating many of the actions you love in Google Assistant today.

While some of the actions won’t work right away, we are working to support more coming soon. You will be able to switch back to Google Assistant in app settings.

Gemini opt in is rolling out to select devices and countries - opt in to Gemini from your Google Assistant or by downloading the Gemini app.

Rarely works anymore. Some days it does and others it doesn't. Pressing the microphone always gets results. Saying "Hey Google" randomly works or doesn't work. WORTHLESS! UPDATE: Wiped phone back to factory settings. After trying all suggestions posted on youtube, the web and this site, I finally bit the bullet and did the factory reset. Reinstalled my backup and updated all apps - Assistant is working again.

Edit:"hey Google" now does searches instead of executing commands. I'll say "hey Google what's 500 divided by 47?" And I'll get back "here's what i found.." - with links to how to solve math problems. Same thing with playing music or doing a whole bunch of things that worked up until recently. Also the search results themselves are getting less helpful, less accurate, and more repetitive. How does something so awesome become so bad SO FAST!!! I just don't understand, unless it's intentional.

January update broke the functionality of "Hey Google" voice assistance on Motorola and Samsung flip phones. Doesn't work any more when phones are closed, which defeats the whole point. Rolling back to previous version provides temporary relief, until it automatically updates again which is becoming very annoying. Lenovo/Motorola can't provide any indication of when or how this might be fixed, says it's a Google problem. Which I do believe because it is plaguing Samsung flips as well.
