Developing for Assistant across devices

on YouTube ↗15m

" summary

App Actions brings voice control to Android, Wear and Android for Cars by mapping user intents to app features using over 60 Built-In Intents, inline inventories and a shortcuts.xml capability list. Development uses Android Studio with the Google system plugin and the App Actions test tool to create previews (no APK reupload required), deep links for Cars, and intent extras for fulfillment. Dynamic and Assistant shortcuts enable brandless queries and Play Store install suggestions.
