Google improves Assistant's Voice Match capability

Google is making it easier for Assistant to identify your voice, primarily if you use smart devices in your home with other members of your household. When you setup Assistant now, Voice Match will ask you to say more than just "Ok Google" to help the system identify your voice more accurately. Now, you'll need to say a longer phrase like "Hey Google, play my workout playlist." Voice Match allows you to link up to six people to a single Google Assistant-powered device.

Google Assistant's responsiveness to the "Hey Google" keyboard will soon be tweakable, too. There will be a setting in the Google Home app where you can adjust how sensitive smart speakers and smart displays can be to the hotword. And these settings can be changed at any time and can be finetuned for each device. It'll be initially available in English with more languages to follow.
