Google Assistant for PC

What is Google Assistant? An Artificial Intelligence Voice App

As Apple/iOS phones have Siri and Amazon has Alexa, so is Google Assistant to Android Phones. Just as the name implies, Google Assistant is a Google product which basically assists Google in carrying out activities using voice commands, voice searches and activated device control.
The way Google assistant is designed, it can carry on conversation-like interactions with a smart device user. Note however that Google Assistant isn't only limited to voice but text entries, and weill follow whatever form of conversation it is engaged in.

Google Now or Google Assistant?

You must realize that before the launch of Google Assistant, there was an extension of Google called Google Now which was made to be personal to a user. Google Now was at that time responsible for pulling out relevant information for you.
Now, Google Assistant is a fusion of Google Now but with more voice control features in addition to texts entries.
The way it functions is important because now you don't have to perform tasks manually. You can use Google Assistant unless you choose to perform said tasks manually. Simple voice commands get the jobs done for you. All you need to begin is state wake words like "Okay Google" or "Hey Google".

What went wrong.

By cavila55 (Pcmac user)

I had an iPhone 6s and I used this app with my fossil watch and it worked great. I got my text messages and phones calls and reminders and all. But then something went wrong with this app. I did an update and then it stopped working. I was no longer getting my text messages. Everything else was working fine. So I removed the app and then downloaded it again hoping it would work and it did not not. So then I thought maybe it was my phone because it was an older iPhone and the app was updated maybe there were some changes and my phone just was not getting it due to being old. So I upgraded my I phone to an iPhone XS Max hoping it would work. Excited to get the app downloaded and updated and set up my watch to my new phone and nothing. Still no text messages. I was very disappointed. I just don’t understand what went wrong if it was working fine before. Please go back and check to see what you did a few updates ago that changed to not receiving text messages any more. With every update I have hope that I will get my text messages again and still nothing no text messages coming in. That is the only thing that is missing from this app update and I don’t know why or what happened to stop receiving text messages. Please bring back the text messages so I can use this app again with my I phone.
I love it so much more than Siri

For the user that wants it to tell your daily reminders or your whole week at once you can easily add it in your routines. It’s as easy as saying “good morning” and it tells your events for the day. It will send texts and play music and read you the news and tell you if there’s traffic on your normal commute all with one command “I’m up or Good morning”. You can even tell the app that you are on your way home and it will text whomever you have it set up to and or broadcast to the speakers in your house to let everyone know that you you are indeed leaving work. It is so much easier than telling Siri to text each person and telling her 4-5 times just to get “one task done”. Even dinner is ready and it broadcasts to the kids rooms or phones just set it up. This is A+++
Has Potential but Falls Short for iPhone 6 Plus

By KrogerCouponer (Pcmac user)

Does not have the ability to wake from sleep when plugged into my car which means that I have to wake Siri to open the this app App while driving my car. Does not have the ability to silence my phone or take it off of silence because it is an iPhone. The only time it is useful is in the morning when I click on the microphone and say, “Good morning the app.” At that time it follows the routine. I have gone over every setting and it does not provide the hands free usage which makes it useless. When I ask for it to tell me the weather or traffic, it pulls up the websites. It is no better than Siri in any way and is actually deficient because I can use Siri hands free while driving. I can wake Siri with, “Hey Siri,” while it is plugged in and can tell it to send text messages, read text messages, open apps like music, notepad, etc. Because I use the app for most things, I was looking forward to the this app but rarely use it and am likely to delete it.
Siri who?

By bullyingiswrong (Pcmac user)

seriously, this app is way batter than Siri and Alexa. shes so helpful and has so much personality which is kinda ironic for a bot. shes fun and i love her use of emojis and sound effects. the only thing i would suggest is that the app gives her a name or nickname, like how Siri and Alexa have. when you ask “whats your name?” or “what can i call you?” she simply says that her name is this app. i have tried asking if i could change it or give her one but its not something they allow you to do. i feel like she should have an actual name (because saying “this app” is a bit inconvenient and i'm sure everyone else would agree) otherwise we should have the option to give her a nickname just like we’re given the option to tell her to “call me ___” or “my name is ___”
