r/androiddev – How do I Make Google Assistant Speak?

I intercept all “Okay Google …” instructions. If the command is just not dealt with by my code, then I want to ship the command to Google Assistant. Listed below are the steps tailored from this web page:

1. App Begin

   1. Package deal: com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox

   2. Exercise Class: com.google.android.apps.gsa.static.plugins.opa.hq.OpaHqActivity

2. Delay 1 second

3. Work together

   1. Motion: Click on

   2. Package deal: com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox

   3. UI Ingredient ID: opa_hq_content_footer_icon_keyboard

4. Delay 1 second

5. Work together

   1. Motion: Set textual content

   2. Package deal: com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox

   3. UI Ingredient Class: android.widget.EditText

   4. UI ELement ID: com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox:id/input_text

   5. Content material: **command**

6. Work together

   1. Motion: Click on

   2. Package deal: com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox

   3. UI Ingredient ID: com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox:id/send_button

Google Assistant executes **command** as if I had spoken it besides it doesn’t communicate out loud.

How do I get Google Assistant to talk out loud? I’ve seen others use text-to-speech to talk to Google Assistant. That’s type of bizarre to talk a command and have my cellphone communicate it again to me simply so Google Assistant can hear it.
