My Google assistant is crazy, it doesn't allow me to set my default music and video player always showing *play music with YouTube* .

Seriously? Well, I don't use it like that. But I thought it is only useful for online search purposes

you can use it to do almost everything on ur phone, like launch apps/games , play music/videos, open photos in gallery, set alarm/reminder ,initiate phone calls and text message and lot more, all with voice commands

I command it to open any apps in my phone, type text, command it to play songs and it can play by artist if you mention the singer name e.g Play billionaire by Teni.

Okay. But I can only use it from the search platform on my phone, it doesn't have a dedicated shortcut or a standalone App of itself. Thanks for your time

no, just tap the assistant app, or button(if your phone has one) and say any command
E.g " open camera"
It will launch the camera app

Alright. Thank you

I don't know if this is possible, but try searching for the Google assistant app on playstore, and see it can be downloaded

Google assistant is smarter.

Press and hold the home button on your android, and since it's the first time, you'll have to set some preferences.
Try it already!

Is there any way to set default apps to play music and videos on the Google assistant? it's always opening with YouTube

just go to settings,search for Google assistant,set up your voice so that any time you need it you should just say "ok Google" or "hey Google".

Alright. Thanks

Both has it’s own pros n cons
Google voice picks up my voice at times when I’m talking randomly at home.
Siri will never do this


Google voice understands my Nigerian accent well, more than Siri

Siri has an advantage over Google voice because iOS has a better App support than android, for instance when u need to play a music, set alarm/reminder

Most Google voice activities are restricted cos android performs few activities unless you unlock the phone.
