Did Google Assistant respond poorly? – Google has fixed the problem

There’s a good chance that the Google Assistant hasn’t been doing what you asked for lately. The smart assistant hasn’t been nearly as smart as it should be lately. Google says it’s aware of the issue, but it should be fixed now.

Google Assistant smart again

In recent weeks, if you shouted the command ‘OK Google, close the curtains’, or ‘OK Google, turn on the lights’, chances are that this was not done by the assistant of the search engine giant. You regularly received the answer ‘I don’t understand’. Inconvenient if you want to have the lights on while you walk into a dark room. The problem affects both the Assistant on the smartphone and the Nest Hub and other Nest devices.

It seems that Google has now solved the problem. Instead of an error saying she doesn’t understand, the Google Assistant now neatly turns on the light. The problem was specifically with voice commands around smart devices. Its cause is unknown. Did you also have problems? We’d love to hear it, leave a comment below this post.
