Hidden code reveals possible new features for Google Assistant

Another string of code hints at a new customization feature for Google Assistant. The string reads, “Hi, I’m your Google Assistant, here to help you throughout your day! I can be more helpful the better I know you. Which areas would you like some help with?” Based on this code, it appears that users will be able to specify certain topics that they could use Google Assistant’s help with during the course of a day.
Lastly, it seems that Google might replace the Routines feature. This allows Google Assistant to handle multiple actions by using a single phrase. There are six ready-made options including Good morning, Bedtime, Leaving home, I’m home, Commuting to work, and Commuting home. If you say “Good Morning,” Assistant will turn off silent mode; adjust lights, plugs, the thermostat and other smart devices; give you a weather update; run through your calendar for the day; read your reminders for the day; raise or lower the volume of any media; and play music, news, the radio, a podcast or an audiobook. The discovered code appears to be offering a shortcut for users to browse the more than one million different actions that Google Assistant can do. Google could allow users to create new routines by suggesting popular action macros.
There is no guarantee that any of these new features will show up in Google Assistant, but it does give us an idea of what Google has in mind for its virtual digital helper in the near future.
