Almost every Android user now is looking to get his hands on the new Google Assistant, unfortunately, however, it is <strong>only available on phones running Android 6.0<\/strong> or above versions of Android.<\/p>\n<p>However, this doesn\u2019t mean there isn\u2019t any way to <strong>get it on your phone running Android Lollipop<\/strong>. As a matter of fact, you can easily get it without even rooting your device.<\/p>\n<p>In this post, I\u2019ll show you two ways to get Google Assistant on your Android Lollipop device.<\/p>\n<p class=\"recommended_top\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<strong>Read Also:<\/strong>\u00a0\n\t\t\t\t\t<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hongkiat.com\/blog\/locked-out-android-solutions\/\">Locked Out of Your Android Device? Here\u2019s What You Can Do<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<h2>Method 1: Install from Google Assistant APK file<\/h2>\n<p>You can install Google Assistant from its APK file and configure it to replace Google Now. To do so, you must <strong>enable downloads from unknown sources<\/strong> in your phone:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Go to phone <strong>Settings<\/strong> &gt; <strong>Security<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li>Scroll down and toggle on <strong>Unknown sources<\/strong>.\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/google-assistant-on-android-lollipop\/01-enable-unknown-sources.jpg\" alt=\"enable unknown sources\" width=\"800\" height=\"707\"><\/figure>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>This will allow you to <strong>install apps from other sources besides Google Play Store<\/strong>. Now <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/drive\/u\/0\/my-drive\/file\/d\/0B1qK2OaCNA1vc25nelhkeGRkUWc\/view\">download the Google Assistant APK file<\/a> on your Android phone and tap the <strong>Install<\/strong> button to install it.<\/p>\n<p>Now you need to <strong>enable it to recognize your voice<\/strong> and replace Google Now for assistance, here\u2019s how:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>In Google Assistant app, move to the <strong>Your Stuff<\/strong> section.<\/li>\n<li>Here tap on <strong>Add Reminder<\/strong>, and then <strong>Get Started<\/strong> to help Google Assistant recognize your voice. You\u2019ll have to say <strong>OK Google<\/strong> three times to do this.\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/google-assistant-on-android-lollipop\/02-add-reminder-in-assistant.jpg\" alt=\"add reminder in google assistant\" width=\"800\" height=\"473\"><\/figure>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Now you need to make sure your phone\u2019s Voice input is configured to accept hotwords and interact properly:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Go to phone <strong>Settings<\/strong> &gt; <strong>Language & input<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<li>Tap on <strong>Voice input<\/strong> and ensure <strong>Enhanced Google Services<\/strong> is selected.\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/google-assistant-on-android-lollipop\/03-use-enhance-input.jpg\" alt=\"enable enhanced google services\" width=\"800\" height=\"473\"><\/figure>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Now that\u2019s done, <strong>long press the home button or swipe upward<\/strong> from it (depends on your phone) and tap on <strong>Always<\/strong> when asked to set Google Assistant as default app. <strong>Google Assistant will open up<\/strong> and you are ready to play around with it.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/google-assistant-on-android-lollipop\/04-make-google-assistant_default.jpg\" alt=\"make google assistant default\" width=\"800\" height=\"707\"><\/figure>\n<h2>Method 2: Use Nova Launcher<\/h2>\n<p>Alternatively, you can use a good Android Launcher with <strong>add activity shortcut<\/strong> support to add a shortcut for Google Assistant on the Home screen. For this trick, <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/apps\/details?id=com.teslacoilsw.launcher&hl=en&rdid=com.teslacoilsw.launcher\">Nova Launcher<\/a> works fine. Although <strong>make sure Google App is updated<\/strong> to the latest version.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Install Nova Launcher and <strong>set it as default home screen<\/strong>. You can press the home button in the Nova Launcher app to set it as default.<\/li>\n<li>Now tap and hold on an empty space on the home screen and select <strong>Widgets<\/strong> .<\/li>\n<li>Tap and hold on <strong>Activities<\/strong> widget and drop it on the home screen.<\/li>\n<li>You\u2019ll be asked to select an activity from the list. Here scroll down and tap on <strong>Google App<\/strong> to open its activities.<\/li>\n<li>You need to select the <strong>Google Assistant<\/strong> option with the following text in the description: <code>google.android.apps.gsa.staticplugins.opa.hq.OpaHqActivity<\/code><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>This will <strong>add Google Assistant icon on the home screen<\/strong>. You can tap on it to open the Google Assistant and configure it like we did in the above method.<\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.hongkiat.com\/uploads\/google-assistant-on-android-lollipop\/05-nova-launcher-add-assistant-launcher.jpg\" alt=\"google assistant launcher\" width=\"800\" height=\"355\"><\/figure>\n<h2>Bonus<\/h2>\n<p>It isn\u2019t necessary to get Google Assistant app <strong>if you just want to see how it feels<\/strong>. Simply install <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/allo.google.com\">Google Allo<\/a> messaging app and you will find the Google Assistant right inside it. Google Assistant is well integrated in the Google Allo app, but it will not offer system wide services.<\/p>\n<h2>Round up<\/h2>\n<p>Google Assistant is probably the <strong>best virtual assistant available<\/strong> in the market right now. Being stuck in an older version of Android shouldn\u2019t stop you from tasting the best. The <strong>first method is still the best for installing Google Assistant<\/strong> on a Lollipop device. Although if it didn\u2019t work for you or you are already an avid user of Nova launcher or a similar one, then the second option may be better for you.<\/p>\n<p class=\"recommended_top\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<strong>Read Also:<\/strong>\u00a0\n\t\t\t\t\t<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.hongkiat.com\/blog\/best-android-email-clients-2017\/\">Top 3 Android Email Clients<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As highlighted in Google I\/O 2017, Google\u2019s new Assistant is smarter, always ahead, more personal, and plays well with other apps and gadgets.
