In case you haven't heard, Google is holding its annual Pixel event in New York City on Tuesday, and to prepare, it's spending this week getting its apps and services in order. After giving Maps an update with group planning and a new commuter tab, Google is now training its sights on the most important piece of its ecosystem: Google Assistant. While Google Assistant is primarily driven by voice, this update is all about how Assistant looks. Google is calling it "the first major makeover for the Google Assistant on phones," and it brings a sense of unity to our handsets and the smart displays that have been cropping up. In the update rolling out to phones, Google is adding sliders, buttons, pictures, and other visual elements to amp up the Assistant experience.
