You can now give your Google Assistant a British or Australian accent
Now you can get your Google Assistant device to say “g’day.”
The voice assistant features two new voices for English speakers in the U.S., with the introduction of being able to choose an Australian or British accent.
You can access these accent in your Google Assistant settings, by selecting “Assistant Voice” in the menu.
From there, select either “Sydney Harbour Blue” for the Australian voice, or “British Racing Green” for the British iteration.
