Go back to the Google Assistant settings and select Hey Google & Voice Match. Tap the Hey Google toggle to enable voice activation.
Once activated, it allows the assistant to recognize your voice and respond to your commands even when your phone is locked. Select the I Agree option to give permission to access Google Assistant with Hey Google, as well as teach the Assistant to train your voice.
Follow the prompts to train Google Assistant to recognize your voice by repeating a number of phrases starting with Hey Google. Once you’re done, tap on Next in the Hey Google Is Ready page.
You can choose to save voice audio or not, so make your selection and you should be good to go. Simply select Start Saving Audio or Not Now to do it later.
Now that Google Assistant is set up, you can start using it right away. Simply say OK Google or Hey Google followed by your command. For example, you can say OK Google, what’s the weather like today? to get the current weather forecast.
Experiment with as many commands as possible, then confirm that those commands have been completed.
