With the new Android 13 update, the google voice assistant has gone haywire and it no longer prompts with a voice response, instead it's now asking you to type in your request or click on the microphone button.
This quick and easy fix will show you how to get your Google Voice assistant working again like it was before!
Recorded and solved on a Google Pixel 6. Should also work for Samsung and other Android devices.

Hi Marty - I do not see where there is an "Assistant App" in the settings - I have to go into the "Google Services" in my settings. Samsung did have me download the Google Assistant App from the Google Playstore, which I thought was odd, but I am a bit "techno challenged". This app has only been on my phone for a few days. I am definitely going to clear my data to see if that helps, but the Samsung rep may have done that - he was going thru a lot (90 minutes) before saying I had a software issue.@@MartyZaluski

The only way to get non verbal responses is. Custom routines (silence) Have the control device and the appliance in the same room (ding). The ding is used when the GH you are talking to is in the same room as the light or fan.

I have spent hours trying to get this fixed - Samsung spent an hour and half trying to figure things out and finally said it was most likely a software problem - fortunately, my phone is still under warranty so I am going to attempt to exchange it!! It has been working fine until several days ago. I had high hopes for this fix. Your instructions were so clear and were so easy to follow - just did not do the trick :( Thank you!!

When I clicked on this, I was looking for ways to make the mic button work for assistant again. I don' t like to have to say "Hey Google" whenever I need something. I much preferred clicking the mic button and then telling it what to do. Now, in 2024 February, they've removed that functionality from the mic button, so that anything you say simply turns into a google search instead of the assistant taking over. The assistant still works, mind you. But now it's only voice activated, which sucks donkey balls.
