You might soon be saying goobye to ‘Hey Google’ and hello to ‘Hey Gemini’

  • Google’s Android XR announcements strongly indicate that the company is looking to retire its popular “Hey Google” voice command.
  • Android XR devices will likely be the first to adopt the new “Hey Gemini” hotword.
  • The way things are going, “Hey Gemini” could eventually replace “Hey Google” on all of Google’s devices and services.

Google’s Android XR announcement is an exciting one for sure. The platform is a brand new operating system for AR/VR devices, including Samsung’s Project Moohan headset and upcoming smart glasses. Hidden in plain sight within these latest reveals from Google is another big change that will alter the way you interact with your Android and smart home devices.
