Xbox One and Google Assistant

Don't think this has been posted but as of about 4 weeks ago this is finally a thing! (Albeit in beta form)

I found the Google link only worked on desktop, not mobile.

Enjoy!

    Friggin sweet!

  • You mean that they are giving up on Cortana?

    And I remember the old Xbox voice assistant (I think that it came with the kinect) that would randomly open up webpages or a help screen, shut down the console or open a random game all because it “thought” it heard you say something while you were in party chat. But, when you wanted to use it, it never worked…

  • Yeah it's working well (surprising, I use my 4G phone as the wireless network the console is connected to & the assistant device). Haven't tried Launch Youtube, but Hey Google Turn On Xbox, Turn Off Xbox, Play Elder Scrolls Online On Xbox, Play No Man's Sky On Xbox all work (sometimes GA confuses the x part for send text, but still does the job). Newest game needs Hey Google Play The Fisherman Fishing Planet On Xbox - is a bit long to say, third world problems.
