Google has redesigned the assistant to be able to perform tasks beyond basic commands. Instead of simple requests like timer or call, you can ask the assistant to summarize your last email, create a playlist for a run, or remember a parking spot.The assistant uses the same models found on smartphones, so it understands clarifying questions, interprets intent correctly, and relies on data from Gmail, Calendar, and other services. Gemini uses the same models found on smartphones, so it understands clarifying questions, interprets intent, and relies on data from Gmail, Calendar, and other services. Gemini reduces the number of steps needed to accomplish everyday tasks. During a run, you can dictate a message, set a reminder, or request a route. You can call the assistant by key phrase, tapping an icon or holding the side button. The Raise to Talk gesture works on some models.This takes the watch from being just a notification screen to a full-fledged tool for quick interaction without a smartphone. Assistant accesses account data: emails, calendar, correspondence, and places from messages. When upgrading to Wear OS 6, the functionality is enhanced by the App Functions API, which allows Gemini to interact with branded apps from different brands.On Samsung devices, this can enhance Samsung Health or calendar, while on Pixel it can improve access to Recorder or weather services. Gemini is capable of remembering short pieces of information – a locker number, a cafe order, or the location of items left behind. Reminders can take geolocation into account: when you leave work, the assistant will remind you to shop.Gemini can also launch compatible apps to track your heart rate or workouts and control Google Home devices, from lights to hands-free messaging.
