Last May, we were able to discover a first version of Google Assistant, the new Google assistant with which we can control our smartphone through voice commands.
But it is now that its Spanish version has begun to reach our Android phones, in a staggered launch that will last several weeks by Google.
Google Assistant is now available in Spanish, for everyone
Google Assistant Requirements
If you haven't updated your phone to the latest version available, maybe it's time to do it. And it is that Google Assistant will only work with phones that have Android 6 or higher. If you have bought your mobile in the last year you should not have problems, but if it is older, it is easy for it to not go well at all.
It is also important that you have the Google application updated. And it is that the voice assistant will only work with the version 6.13 or higher, so you should run to update it, if you haven't already.
Finally, in terms of technical requirements, for the assistant to work normally, it is necessary to have 1,5GB of space. This can also be a problem for those who have a low-end mobile with little storage space.
The evolution of voice search
Until now, Google had a voice search option, which allowed us to carry out any type of search, without having to use the keyboard at all. But what Google Assistant proposes is an evolution of this service, so that it looks much more like Apple's Siri or Microsoft's Cortana.
Thus, not only will we be able to carry out slightly more "typical" searches, but we will also be able to chat with assistant to get to know him better or ask him to tell us jokes or read us poems, to have an entertaining time.
In the event that we have a Chromecast, we can also control playback through our voice, something that will undoubtedly be very comfortable when we want to stop or play a movie again. And in the event that we have home automation devices at home, we can also control them simply by giving voice actions.
Things you can try in Google Assistant Spanish
We can ask Google Assistant the traffic conditions when we want to reach some point of our city. We can also ask where to find restaurants, hotels or ice cream parlors in the vicinity of the place where we are.
If you have any plans for the weekend, you can also ask what the weather is going to be like and plan accordingly.
And if you're a fan of football or any other sport, you will also have the possibility to ask your smartphone what the result of your favorite team's last match was or who is first in the League. For this purpose, my bookmarks is one of the most recommended android apps.
If you are bored, you have the option to ask him to find you a game on google play, with which you can entertain yourself for a while. And if you are a user of Google Calendar, You will also have the option to ask him to inform you of upcoming events.
In addition, you will be able to carry out all the usual tasks that can be asked of a voice assistant, such as asking them to make a call, send a message or open an application without touching the screen.
