Using Google Assistant for calls is pretty convenient, because you can easily make an international call even if you don\u2019t have your phone with you.<\/p>\n<p>Say, you have smart watch or Google Home and need to call your Granny ASAP. You don\u2019t want to waste your time on looking for the phone (it is probably in another room or upstairs or anywhere else). You just say \u201cOK Google\u201d to your smart watch or Google Home and command it to call Granny through Yolla. That\u2019s it. No time wasted, you just used only voice without the need to look for your phone and the app installed on it.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Supported devices<\/strong><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-size: 15px;\">Android 6.0+ watches<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-size: 15px;\">Android 6.0+ TVs<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-size: 15px;\">Google Home<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-size: 15px;\">Android 5.0+ phones<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-size: 15px;\">iOS 10.0+ devices<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-size: 15px;\">Headphones<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-size: 15px;\">Smart Displays<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-size: 15px;\">Android 6.0+ tablets<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><strong>How do I make a call with Google Assistant?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-size: 15px;\">Make sure that you have installed Yolla and synchronized contacts.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-size: 15px;\">Activate Google Assistant, for example, say \u201cOk, Google\u201d when on Android device.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-size: 15px;\">Say \u201cTalk to Yolla Calls\u201d.<\/li>\n<li style=\"font-size: 15px;\">Say the name of the contact that you want to call to.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-3087\" src=\"https:\/\/yollacalls.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/assistant-1-1-576x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"290\" height=\"516\" \/><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-size: 15px;\">Yolla will call you back, then just accept a call and that\u2019s it: you are calling someone from your contact list!<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-3088\" src=\"https:\/\/yollacalls.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/assistant-2-1-577x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"290\" height=\"514\" \/><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you want to learn more, please check Yolla page on Google Assistant directory:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/assistant.google.com\/services\/a\/uid\/000000ffd2ee18a5?hl=en-AU\">https:\/\/assistant.google.com\/services\/a\/uid\/000000ffd2ee18a5?hl=en-AU<\/a><\/p>\n\n        <ul class=\"article__apps\">\n            <li class=\"article__apps-item\">\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/yollacalls.com\/itunes-blog\" target=\"_blank\">\n                    <img src=\"https:\/\/yollacalls.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/white-app-store.svg\" alt=\"icon\"\/>\n                <\/a>\n            <\/li>\n            <li class=\"article__apps-item\">\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/yollacalls.com\/android-blog\" target=\"_blank\">\n                  <img src=\"https:\/\/yollacalls.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/white-google-play.svg\" alt=\"icon\"\/>\n                <\/a>\n            <\/li>\n            <li class=\"article__apps-item web\">\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/yollacalls.com\/en\/account\/?utm_source=blog-web\" target=\"_blank\">Join Yolla and start saving on calls<\/a>\n            <\/li>\n        <\/ul>\n    \n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are thrilled to announce our brand new feature \u2013 support of Google Assistant for making international calls through Yolla.
