[GUIDE] How to activate Google Assistant?

We've been talking for a long time about Google Assistant, the "new" virtual assistant of Google which will replace the now obsolete Google Now.

I speak of "new" because Google Assistant it made its appearance as early as October 2016 and unfortunately has not yet reached the Italian market. Yes, because this virtual assistant is currently only available in English, Spanish and French.


What is Google Assistant for?

Google Assistant is Google's virtual assistant (its archenemy is called Siri) and it is a service based on machine learning. The things you can ask him are really a lot and range from simple requests to very complex requests.



Google Assistant will also be able to understand even indirect questions. An example? If before with Google Now you had to ask "Ok, Google. Is it raining tomorrow?", Now thanks to Google Assistant you can ask "Ok, Google. Do I need an umbrella tomorrow?". The "conversation" will thus be more natural and you will almost feel like you are talking to a person who can fully understand what you are saying.

Which smartphones support Google Assistant?

If until recently the services of Google Assistant were available to a select few (such as the owners of Google Pixel), but from 2 March 2017 they have been extended to all smartphone owners Android 7.0 Nougat e Android 6.0 Marshmallow.

But how to activate Google Assistant?

Of course you can find out by going to our video on YouTube.
In any case it is not difficult: just set the language of your phone to English and that's it. Once this is done you can say "OK, Google" and start a loving chat - in English - with Miss Google Assistant.




Google Assistant in Italian?

For now, Google Assistant it is not available in the Italian language. You will have to wait until the end of 2017. However, if you prefer Spanish and French, you can avail yourself of the help of Google Assistant through the messaging app Google Allo (available for Android and iOS).
