Google assistant is a highly powerful tool and it does a lot of things. Google has started tightening the screw and introducing deeply tied in-app actions to Google assistant. If you want to browse and add third party app shortcuts to Google assistant, then follow the below steps.

Adding Shortcuts To Google Assistant

  • As a first step, you need to open the Google app, then click on more menu on the bottom bar. From here you need to navigate to Settings>Google Assistant.
  • Here click on the services tab and open shortcuts.
  • Here on the next screen, it will show you all the third-party application shortcuts that Google Assistant supports. Now tap on ‘+’ to add your favourite shortcuts and then it will show you a confirmation on Google assistant.
  • Here, it will show all the third-party app shortcuts under the tab ‘Your Shortcuts’.
  • For example, you can Twitter Messages as a shortcut keyword for getting the Messages from Twitter.
  • Now you are done with the setup, you can go ahead and say “ Hey Google, Twitter Messages ”, and it will bring you the messages from your Twitter.
