3. How to Launch Google Voice Assistance?

Who needs Iphone’s Siri when Google Voice Assistance is there to perform all kinds of phone-related tasks for you? That’s right. You can launch Google Voice Assistance by long-pressing or double-tapping the Home Button. If you are using the new Galaxy A series then long-press it and if you’re using any older model then double-tap it.
