“#Google Assistant Now Lets You Delay Actions Within Your Routines \u2013 Review Geek”<\/strong><\/p>\n

Google has spent the last year trying to improve its smart assistant Routines, the single-command shortcuts that trigger multiple changes across your home. Earlier this year, the company announced one-tap My Actions buttons that let you start Routines from the Google Home app<\/a>. And now, Google is quietly rolling out a Delay Start feature that lets you adjust when specific actions within your Routines start.<\/p>\n

First noticed by Reddit<\/a> user u\/Droppedthe_ball<\/a>, Delay Start allows you to set a timer for certain actions within Routines. You could program your robot vacuum to turn on 30 minutes after you start your \u201cmorning\u201d Routine, for example, so you don\u2019t need to hear its annoying motor until you\u2019ve had some coffee.<\/p>\n

With a lot of tweaking, you could use Delay Start to program elaborate single-command Routines. But the feature looks a bit half-baked, as it lacks the option to delay commands by seconds and doesn\u2019t work with pre-built Routines like Good Morning. Google Assistant is still the best smart assistant when it comes to voice commands, but it needs a lot more work to get on par with Alexa\u2019s routines.<\/p>\n

Google hasn\u2019t announced the Delay Start feature, but it appears to be rolling out in Google Home app v2.42.1.14 for select users in the UK. Unless this is a beta feature, which it doesn\u2019t seem to be, then it should reach all Google Home users in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n
