Cant get Google assistant working

[AC Question]

Hi,
I'm from the UK and was surprised when i woke up this morning to find my Samsung S7 edge telling me that the Nougat update is ready to install - yay! So i installed it expecting it to bring Google assistant, but it hasn't and "Ok Google" does this work like it used to. Does Nougat automatically bring Google assistant or am i doing something wrong?

Welcome to Android Central! Open the Google app, tap Menu>Settings, and see if there's an option there for Assistant. Make sure it's enabled there.
