Has Google Assistant been added ? Otherwise I need to return this soundbar.

In fact I might just decide to switch to a different ecosystem. 

This appears to be the main thread you may want to read:

 


Just read that, I’m reselling all my sonos speakers.

 

Bad move from SONOS CEO, they are going to go bankrput. It’s a shame, such a great company with lots of talented developers ruined by the ego of a CEO.


From what I understand, it’s a decision made by Google, not Sonos, by changing the ground rules on ‘newer’ devices having the option. But that’s from the outside, looking in, I certainly wasn’t part of the decision. 


Yeah I read about it. It’s to include Gemini which should be a better experience for everyone. Bose, Philipps and other speaker companies are adapting to it but not Sonos?

Anyways, returned half of my system today.


@akhan, GA has never been available on the Arc Ultra.

 

The Google Assistant is available on Sonos Arc, Beam (Gen 1 and 2), Move, One, and Roam.
