Google Assistant app for iOS starts rolling out in Europe

According to reports, users were unable to assign Google Assistant to the Home button in order to replace Siri. However, they could add Google Assistant widget. 

Assistant utilises Google’s search smarts, so it can help you find what you want faster, said reports. 

The company says the app is designed to operate on devices running iOS 9.1 and above which is likely to cover the majority of iPhone and iPad users. 

The tech giant offers an Assistant widget that can be accessed from the widget panel of Apple’s notification centre. It works as a next best option for having Assistant available from anywhere in iOS. 

Earlier this year, Google said its voice-powered digital assistant is available on more than 100 million devices.
