This is because both apps provide similar functions: voice search, app opening, calling, messaging, entertainment, etc that make day-to-day activities easier for users. My Opinion: Google Assistant VS SiriĪs someone that has used both the Android and IOS devices, I find online debates on the comparison between Google Assistant and Siri very interesting. However, Siri has the advantage over Google Assistant in being more popular because of its long-term existence in the software market and the user perception of the IOS Brand. The average Android device is cheaper than the average IOS device of similar specification, so Google Assistant has an advantage over Siri in terms of offering a cheaper virtual assistant. Siri has dominated the American market since then, being used on iPhones, MacBooks, speakers, and cars. This was after a 7.3 million user loss between May 2017 and May 2018. Currently, Google Assistant is available on over 1 billion devices and over 100 languages in the world.Īccording to Apple, in 2018 there were 500 million users of Siri. Google Assistant then was available in up to 90 languages in 30 countries in the world. In January 2020, it was reported that Google Assistant had up to 500 million users every month. ![]() Google Assistant has many abilities and the list of the activities this virtual assistant can do grows daily. Features: The Qualities of These Virtual Assistants The virtual assistant was made available for use in the Google Pixel smartphone which was launched in October 2016. It was announced at the 2016 California Google I/O Developer event. Google Assistant is the younger rival of Siri that was announced in May 2016. Siri was bought for the sum of $200 million US dollars by Steve Jobs and it launched on the iPhone in October 2011. In February 2010, along with his co-founders Dag Kittlaus and Tom Gruber, Adam Cheyer launched Siri on the Apple Store. In 1993, Adam Cheyer built the first prototype of what would become Siri. It had a touchscreen, an email service, the ability to send faxes, and an unfortunately weak battery that was said to last one hour. IBM Simon is remembered in history as the first smartphone that had features that would be laughable now but were impressive then. Thereafter, in 1980 IBM released a voice-recognizing typewriter called Tangora, and in the 1990s, the first virtual assistant that would be known as IBM Simon. However, the IBM-produced Shoe-box activated calculator that was presented in the 1962 Seattle World Fair resulted in the development of more voice recognition software in the 1970s. ![]() Humans could not always communicate with machine many years ago verbally asking a machine to perform a task would be seen as absurd.
