The Verge reports that Google plans to remove access to Google Assistant from Android phones and tablets starting September 4th, according to an email apparently sent to some users. The change is also expected to affect paired devices such as smartwatches and headphones. Google has not yet confirmed the email publicly. The shutdown follows Google’s broader shift toward Gemini, which is positioned to replace Assistant as the primary conversational and device-control experience.
