Google Assistant to the masses

According to the representatives of the company, Google Assistant will appear on the tablets running Android 6.0 Nougat next week. True, the assistant will appear so far only in the US, on tablets with English.

Google Assistant will be available for smartphones with Android 5.0 Lollipop. The output of the application will not be limited to the territory of North America and will first be released in Australia, Canada, Singapore, Britain, India, Mexico, Spain, Italy, South Korea, Japan, Germany and Brazil. Gradually the list of countries will expand and perhaps very soon the voice assistant will get to smartphones on Android Lollipop and in Ukraine, Russia and CIS countries.
