Anyone know if Google assistant can wake up phone if the screen is off??

This feature has been exclusive to the pixel phones which I am jealous of... From what I understand the lg g6 has the google assistant baked in like the pixel. Anyone know if you can use the Google assistant to wake up the g6 like you can on the pixel?

Yes you can

Yep. Google Assistant also got rolled out to a bunch of various Android phones as well.

You can do it with the G6. For some reason, it just randomly quits for me sometimes. And when it does then none of the Google Assistant stuff works. Only way I've found to fix it is a reboot. Never had that problem with the pixel. Hopefully that gets fixed.

Works fine on my V20, haven't tried it on my wife's G6 but I would assume it's the same.

Yes I have it on my gs7 edge and it's great! Just wish I didn't have to have the screen on first to use it
