Have you been trying to use Google Assistant by talking to your phone only to find it not able to control things on your phone? You might say “Hey, Google” or “OK, Google,” your phone responds by presenting the Google Assistant, and you ask to skip a song or perform some other function related to your phone or tablet, Assistant will either do nothing or act as if there’s nothing to control. I have recently been dealing with this and it’s unclear to me how widespread this issue is. I recently found the cause and solution.
