Things I wish Google Assistant could do

This is a running list of the use cases that come up in my everyday life that I wish Google Assistant (either on my phone or on a Google Home device) could handle.

repeated/scheduled routines

"Hey Google, run routine Cleaning Time every Sunday at 11am"

location-triggered routines

"Hey Google, run routine [something] every time I get home"

data-dependent conditional logic

location

"Hey Google, run routine Cleaning Time every Sunday at 11am if I'm at home"

input from other connected devices/services

"Hey Google, set a timer for 20 minutes when [smart oven device] is preheated"

more complicated combinations

  • "Hey Google, remind me to go for a run every Sunday morning at 10am if I'm home and it's not raining and it's above 15º outside"
  • "Hey Google, remind me ten minutes before a new episode of Desus and Mero airs on Showtime if I'm at home"

aide de memoire

"Hey Google, I'm watering the big plant"

"Ok"

[2 days later]

"Hey Google, when's the last time I watered the big plant?"

"Two days ago at HH:MM"
