Today we are sort of tired to cover all news regarding Google I/O 2017, but there’s so much stuff even now. & One of them is this, Google Home. Google has added some new features to Google Home which will make this even more functional. Also Google Home is making it’s way to more regions as well. The main three new features in Google Home are Scheduling Appointments & Setting Reminders, Proactive Assistant, and Hands-free calling. So let’s have a brief look one by one.
1. Scheduling Appointments & Setting Reminders:
While Google Assistant can do many more exciting this on Google Home, but don’t know why it can’t do this one. But now Google has implemented this feature in Google Home as well. Now you can set reminders as well as calendar schedules with your voice. Though scheduling appointments is ready in Google Home, setting reminders will come to Google Home soon.
2. Hands-free Calling:
Now you can even call to anyone without picking up your phone. You can do this just with your voice & Google Home. This will come very handy when you are either cooking or you are busy playing PlayStation. For the users in USA and Canada, calling is completely free. Interestingly this calling will be absolutely free. Google will use their own call service instead of any other carriers. Your phone number will work as your Caller ID, just like WhatsApp calling.
3. Proactive Assistant:
With this new feature, Google Home will give you important notifications like traffic alert, completion of to-do list, flight alerts, etc. But it will not give you notification on it’s own. Some lights will glow up & when you ask ‘What’s up’ then it will tell you the notification. As of now this feature is in very early stage, because Google wanted to keep it more smart by just not pushing all the notification but just give the important notifications.
There are two more features, Favourite Entertainment and Visual response. But they only do some non-handy things i.e. support for more entertainment service like Netflix and display what you asked on big screens like television etc, respectively. Also talking about the availability of Google Home, now to will be available in 6 more countries. Those countries are : Canada, UK, France, Japan, Germany and Australia.
So that’s all the information we have as of now. Some more content from Google I/O is on it’s way. So stay tuned with us for more information.
