Google Assistant Custom Commands | Hey Google, Open My App's page


I want to open my android app's specific page with voice control in google assistant.

I read some article "app actions" can help when it released.

But Vodafone has already doing this feature.

In google assistant I can tell:

For example:

++ Hey Google, Open Vodafone my invoice

-- Vodafone's mobile app is opened and direct related pages.

I want to do it for my custom application . Hey Google, Open My Wonderful app and Book a hotel reservation and it will open my wonderful app's hotel reservation page

Is that restricted for us? Or can we do it programatically or non-programatically ..

I saw it just indicated commands is avaible. For example set alarm I will say to assistant and Mobile app will suggest me to related app. I don't want to do this. I want to create custom commands for my mobile application.


Solution

  • At Google I/O 2019, some updates were posted about App Actions:

    This kind of integration will be possible using these updates via the "Open app feature" action. For example "Hey Google, open history on my app" could let you open the history screen in "my app". That said, for specific use-cases, like travel booking, it's best to wait for the built-in Assistant intents to be supported for the travel vertical which will allow more powerful integrations such as "Hey Google, book a hotel in Paris on May 8 with my hotel app".

    Note that as of Google I/O 2019, App Actions is available for developers to start building but not available to end-users yet.
