Google Assistant in Sonos speakers
What's Google Assistant?
Google Assistant is a virtual assistant that's built into speakers. This Assistant designed by Google answers your questions and follows commands. You could ask what the weather will be like, check your calendar, or ask it to play a different song, and the assistant will take care of it for you. If you connect your Google account to a Google Assistant speaker, you can get answers to personal questions. 'At what time is my barber's appointment?' or 'How's the traffic on my way to work?'
How and when will my Sonos speakers change?
The Sonos Beam soundbar, Sonos One, Sonos Era 300, and Sonos Move 2 WiFi speakers have a built-in microphone. So for now, the Google Assistant only works with these speakers. What's going to change about the Sonos speakers? From now on, you can control your music and movies with voice commands. And you can ask for information about your calendar, the weather, or the latest news.
What about my other Sonos speakers?
Do you have a different Sonos speaker? You won't be able to control it with your voice. You can only use voice commands with these speakers by linking them to a Beam, One, Era, Move, Google Home, or Google Home Mini. Do you have a Play:5 in the bedroom and a One in the living room? Then you can tell your One speaker to play a song in the bedroom, and it'll play on the Play:5.
