Is anyone using the new Google Assistant?

[DWooderson]

Has anyone replaced Google Now ("OK Google") with Google Assistant on their N6 yet?

I'm trying to decide if it's worth the effort to install it (unsupoprted and requires root). I'm getting a Google Home device this week (which uses Google Assistant), and it would be cool to have the same assistant app on my phone.

Running it on my Nexus 6 and it works great

I don't want to root my Nexus, so no, but it's decent running it in Allo

I'm running it on my N6. It's so helpful for me. Say "Good Morning" and it gives you the weather, commute traffic and the news. I talk to my phone a lot more now.

I downloaded the APK just today on my rooted Nexus 6 running CM14.1 with the 7.1.1 version.
Working good for me so far.

Been resisting the temptation to root my Nexus. Guess, it's time to give in.
