the Google Assistant also announced on the first day of I / O 2021 some of the new features that will affect users throughout this year, and some of them will happen to improve their integration with the third-party apps.
To improve this integration with the Assistant, Google is launching new tools development so that applications improve their voice commands and can be integrate into the assistant’s own interface
This will be the integration of applications in the Google Assistant
To improve the new shortcuts, of which we perform certain actions with our voice, we see how with Android 12 the detection of shortcuts is improved. Starting with the new version of the operating system, it will be easier to find all the voice commands compatible with the applications.
The new Android 12 Shortcuts API will automatically add these shortcuts to the Google Assistant so you can run it by voice, as well as customize your voice command. In addition, they will add the command “Ok Google, shortcuts” to access the settings.
But the most important novelty is the new widgets
This means that in the near future we will be able to ask the Google Assistant “how many kilometers have we driven with Strava?” and have the assistant show us a widget with Strava info and graphics, or to cite another example, ask the assistant to place a food delivery order and ask us directly in the widget what we want to order .
