You can ask this intelligent device about the weather and news, and even use it for random Google searches.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Want to know who the actor was in the movie you watched last night? Simply ask. Want to play some music while you\u2019re relaxing or create a shopping list? Request that, too. Best of all, it\u2019s completely hands-free. Google Assistant is built into Android phones and in a number of standalone products like smart speakers and smart displays.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Helpful tips and tricks for Google Assistant<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To get Google Assistant\u2019s attention you need to say the \u201cwake word.\u201d Google Assistant is listening for that word, or in this case phrase, to know you\u2019re talking to it. You can\u2019t just say \u201cwhat time is it?\u201d You\u2019ll need to say \u201cOK Google, what time is it?\u201d You can also say the \u201cHey, Google\u201d voice command to get its attention.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While some other voice assistants let you change the wake words\u2014like Apple\u2019s Siri, Microsoft\u2019s Cortana, and Amazon\u2019s Alexa\u2014Google Assistant only has those two. However, on many devices you can change the voice of Google Assistant itself, with a variety of male and female voices to choose from. You can also change what it calls you. The default is the name on your Google account, but you can change that to another name or nickname.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can also use Google Assistant with a compatible messaging app on your preferred device, whether it\u2019s a smartwatch or Google Pixel phone. That way, if you\u2019re driving or simply have your hands full, you can still enjoy messaging functionality by utilizing this helpful feature. Your virtual personal assistant can read you messages that you\u2019ve received or send one for you.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Connectivity and apps<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can connect the Google Assistant app to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/l\/Home-Electronics\/Smart-Home\/Smart-Lighting\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">smart lights<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, locks, and other devices in your home. Once set up you can say, for instance, \u201cHey Google, turn off the living room,\u201d and whatever lights you\u2019ve chosen will shut off. This can be very handy for rooms or areas with hard-to-reach light switches.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most apps on your phone or tablet will also work with Google Assistant. For instance, try saying, \u201cOK Google, play Julia Nunes on Spotify.\u201d This is especially handy when using a smart speaker in a kitchen. You can tell it to play some music or say, \u201cHey, Google, set a two-minute timer\u201d so you don\u2019t forget to flip the steak. Google Assistant will even set alarms if you ask: \u201cOK Google, set alarm for 7 a.m.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Where can you find Google Assistant?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can access and use Google Assistant on Android devices with a swipe, squeeze, or tap, depending on the model. Alternatively, many smart-home devices and speakers have Google Assistant built in, particularly those in the Google Home series.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here are some of the available devices with integrated Google Assistant.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Google Nest Mini<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/ga00638us.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Google Nest Mini<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is a tiny, 3.85-inch diameter smart speaker that can fit anywhere. The fabric top and much of its body are made from recycled plastics. A single 40mm driver provides the sound, while three far-field microphones help pick up your voice and instructions from all directions. Both WiFi and Bluetooth allow for connections to your phone, home network, and the internet. The Nest Mini is available in three colors and comes with a one-year limited warranty through Google.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_68499\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-68499\" style=\"width: 445px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-68499\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Google-Nest-Mini-2nd-Generation-Chalk-1024x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"Google Nest Mini, 2nd Generation, Chalk\" width=\"445\" height=\"445\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Google-Nest-Mini-2nd-Generation-Chalk-1024x1024.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Google-Nest-Mini-2nd-Generation-Chalk-150x150.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Google-Nest-Mini-2nd-Generation-Chalk-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Google-Nest-Mini-2nd-Generation-Chalk-256x256.jpeg 256w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Google-Nest-Mini-2nd-Generation-Chalk-50x50.jpeg 50w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Google-Nest-Mini-2nd-Generation-Chalk.jpeg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 445px) 100vw, 445px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-68499\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Google Nest Mini, 2nd Generation, Chalk<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Google Nest Audio Smart Speaker<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/ga01586us.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Google Nest Audio Smart Speaker<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is a seven-inch-tall Google Assistant-enabled speaker that can play music and help you control lights and other smart devices throughout your home.
