Any future plan for Google Assistant Voice Control like Alexa

My last Dot cost me $10 bundled with a FireTV. I think come Black Friday we will see just how far Amazon is willing to go with Dot pricing to battle the Google Home Mini.

I have 4 chromecasts (2 audio, 2 video) and a bunch of sonos (Play1, amps, connects). All Sonos except the Play1 are hardwired into a hub in my basement. When I use Google Music and go to cast I can see my available chromecasts of course but also all my Sonos that are on the same network including the Play1 which is not hardwired in. So I cast first to a certain room (cast to a Sonos) then I can use Google Assistant to voice control the music. Its not ideal like "OK Google, play this song IN THIS ROOM" but I can "OK Google, play this song by this artist" once I've already chosen the room.

If you have google assistant on your android phone and spotify premium account linked to google assistant, you can use voice commands right now via your phone to play anything you like. e.g. " ok google play some swing music...." . You just have to have chosen the Sonos speaker as your device for playing music in the spotify app at the start of your session. I tried it today for the first time. No echo or google home device required. Its awesome...!!! well done SONOS Spotify and Google. Great teamwork.

Hi. Awesome. Can you clarify? Use google play music app then cast? I see my chromecasts but I don't see my Sonos inside the cast menu of google play music app. Where do you see the sonos? And do you cast to a sonos? Thanks

Could it be possible to use the Google Assistant via your Android phone, e.g. "Hey Google. Play Tiësto on Sonos"?

Any assistant should refuse to play Tiësto . /s

We are working with Google Assistant to bring their voice control to Sonos. No specifics to share today on when. All existing Sonos players will be controllable from Alexa, and other voice services as they come, but you will need something with a microphone array, such as the Sonos One.

Is there any updates on the Google Assistant coming to the Sonos One and for Sonos to support Google home devices and commands, since the above from October 4th?

In a word No. All you will get is that they are working on it. It is rare for Sonos, or any similar sized company to give out exact dates. My guess, and it is just a guess would be no sooner than spring.
