Highlights Assistant Quick Phrases now supported on Pixel Buds Pro. Feature includes commands like “Answer,” “Decline,” “Stop,” and “Snooze.” Compatibility extends to Pixel Buds A-Series as well. Voice commands recognized directly by Pixel Buds, not just via phone. Google's Assistant Quick Phrases feature, initially introduced with the Pixel 6, has expanded its compatibility to include the Pixel Buds Pro. This enhancement allows users to interact with voice commands on their Pixel Buds Pro seamlessly, without the need to activate the assistant with the usual “Hey Google” prompt. The feature, which supports commands like “Answer” and “Decline” for calls, as well as “Stop” and “Snooze” for alarms and timers, has shown impressive functionality in testing. It's noteworthy that the voice commands are recognized directly by the Pixel Buds Pro, and not just via a nearby phone. This was confirmed through tests where the connected phone was placed in a different room. Google Expands Assistant Quick Phrases to Pixel Buds Pro Despite the official settings page only referencing Pixel Buds Pro, testing has revealed that these Quick Phrases also work effectively with the A-Series models. This extension of functionality to the A-Series was not initially mentioned in Google's support documentation for Quick Phrases, nor in the Pixel Buds guidance, which mainly focuses on tap gestures for answering or declining calls. An interesting aspect of the Quick Phrases feature is its limited expansion beyond its original set of commands. While there's potential for a wider range of customizable phrases, as hinted by developments spotted on the Nest Hub Max, currently, the feature remains confined to a preset list that includes basic commands for alarms, timers, lights, time, and weather.
