6.On-Screen Google Assistant

One of the greatest issues with activating Google Assistant in the “old days” was that your whole screen would be taken over. That’s no longer the case, as you can quickly activate Assistant just by swiping from either the bottom left or right corners. Swipe in from one of the corners, hold for a second, and the new Google Assistant interface will appear. Then, you could either ask your question, tap the keyboard icon in the bottom right corner to type your request.
