Using the Google assistant to interact with our mobile is something very interesting, although the most "rough" part of this is that we need to unlock our mobile all the timeThis is for security reasons, obviously, but it's clearly not the best for voice interaction. Now Google has begun to experiment with certain functions without unlocking the mobile and one of them is to send messages.
All this would be avoidable if Google's voice recognition was really safe to unlock the mobile but that, today, is not the case.In fact, Google recently restricted many of the functions of its assistant when it is used on the mobile lock screen. On this occasion it seems that the season is reopening.
The Google assistant allows you to send messages with your mobile phone locked, but for now only on some phones
As we can read in 9to5Google this change originates in the latest versions of the Google application through its servers. Allows you to send messages without unlocking your mobile. The command to send messages this way is: Ok Google, send a text message to (person) (text message) The assistant will first hear the name of the recipient of the message and just after that the content of the message. Once this is done, Google allows you to take a visual review and by means of a new command proceeds to send it.
When trying, the device will tell us that the phone is locked and show us how the message is being sent All these functions may be They are designed so that Google's RCS messaging client can take advantage of its competitors with features like this. We do not have any information on when this feature will be available to all users.
All we know is that this feature can be tested on some Google Pixel 3 using Android 9 Pie. However, on some devices running Android Q Beta it is not possible to use this Google Assistant feature. This change is not linked to any specific version of the Google application. All users who have been able to try this function have seen this possibility activated without doing anything on their mobile phone. Google is in charge of selecting these people at random.
