  1. Maybe someone can answer my question – How to make google assistant process commands from the first device which caught my voice? For example, I have google assistance on two devices – google home and google assistance on my Pixel4xl. And the problem is that if they both are in the same room and I need to ask something for assistance (I say Ok, Google) and two of my devices trying to answer me. Is it possible to set up that only the first device will answer me and not both of them in parallel?

  2. Hey Josh, great video. I’ve been using it for some time, using exactly the hints you gave on my iPhone 11 and it works 100%. Hugs from Portugal 🇵🇹

  3. Don't see the back tap on my 6s. Guess it must be for newer phones. And another way to use Google on an iPhone is for home control. I can ask Siri to ask Google to run anything in my smart home and it doesn't need to be a homekit device. Phone has to be unlocked but it works. Great video.
