Google Assistant will receive a “Memory” function for storing everything in general
Google is reportedly working on a new feature for Google Assistant called Memory. It is a combination of a to-do list, a note-taking app, a reading list, and a Pinterest-style data board. This feature is currently undergoing internal testing at Google.
According to 9to5Google, Memory can store a wide variety of content types, including articles, books, contacts, events, flights, hotels, images, movies, music, notes, photos, places, playlists, foods, recipes, reminders, restaurants, screenshots, TV shows, videos, and websites.
Although Google Assistant already has a similar feature, it is only suitable for storing simple data. Memory is a much more powerful tool. Its idea is to provide the user with a single storage space for any important and not-so-important data to sort. An interesting feature of “Memory” will be providing contextual information: for saved recipes, the function will show the cooking time, and a link to the trailer will be attached to the movie. Quick preview cards will be available for documents. To save data in the “Memory,” you can use a voice command or a special shortcut.
The Memory feature is still in early testing, and Google is not ready to announce any plans for its public debut.
