What do you need to use Google Assistant?

You can download the Google Assistant and the Google Home app in the Play Store or App Store. Next, you can link smart products in the Home app and give each device a name and coordinate them. With the Assistant app, you control the devices in Google Home remotely. On an Android phone, you have direct access to the Assistant if you hold down the home button. The Google Assistant can be used on an iOS device via the app or with Siri.

After downloading the Google Home app, you can easily add the smart products in your home. The individual apps of these products are all integrated into the Google Home app. Select all smart apps that are compatible with Google Assistant to control them centrally. You can then control them via the Google Assistant in the app or with your voice.

Google Assistant allows you to start your favorite playlist or ask about the latest news with your voice. Start your command with 'Hey Google' or 'Okay Google' and the Assistant will do what you ask right away. This works both via your smartphone and your Google Nest Hub or Sonos WiFi speaker.

The Google Home and Google Nest Hub are smart speakers that perform all your assignments. You can give voice-controlled commands, after which the speaker answers your questions or turns on smart devices. You only have to use your phone to connect devices in the app, after that you can do everything you need through the speaker. For example, ask it to set a timer while you're cooking or tell it to dim your smart lights.
