Finally, a male voice for Google Assistant
There's finally a male voice option for Google Assistant.
Still, the female voice we know and love retains her top spot. Google's male voice is referred to as "Voice II."
You can change to Voice II under Preferences > Assistant Voice in the Assistant or Google Home apps.
The update came as new products were revealed at a Google event on Wednesday, including the Google Home Mini, Google Home Max, and Pixel 2 phone.
You can probably expect more cool features to be added to Google Assistant as the company focuses on artificial intelligence, CEO Sundar Pichai said.
So get ready for the digital assistant to do even more for you -- in whatever voice you want it to.
