Google Assistant Now Available In Hindi Language

Google on Thursday (15 March) launched the Google Assistant in Hindi language. As of now, the assistant is rolling out for Android 6.0+ devices (Marshmallow and above). The Hindi assistant will soon be coming to Android 5.0 Lollipop, iPhones as well as Android Oreo (Go edition) devices.

The Google Assistant lets you have a conversation with Google to help you get things done in your world from telling you about your day, to finding the fastest route to work, or just setting an alarm for the next day all in Hindi.

To activate Google Assistant in Hindi, just touch and hold the Home button or say “Ok Google” on your Android smartphones. Users can also send text messages, set reminders, or get directions with the Google Assistant.

You can now ask questions in Hindi like Sabse kareeb Punjabi restaurant kahaan hain? Or Cricket ka score kya hain? You can also give instructions like Kal subah mujhe saat baje jagaao Or Daddy ko SMS bhejo "5 minutes mein pahunchenge"

“The Google Assistant is truly Indian, it’s your helpful dost that speaks our language and understands the things you care about, from finding biryani recipes, to pulling up the latest cricket score, or finding directions to the nearest ATM, said Purvi Shah, Technical Program Manager, Assistant.

She also added, “In order to make it even more useful to Indians over time, developers and businesses can now build Actions for the Hindi Assistant through the developer platform Actions on Google. Once an action is built, you can just say “Ok Google, talk to” and access the service or content straight through your Google Assistant.”
