google just yesterday announced its voice search interface coming to older Android devices. Android fragmentation has so long been worsening the experience in Android devices. Apple’s software platform is arguably better than Google when it comes to software update rollout to older devices. Just a meagre 0.5% Android devices have gotten access to the most recent Android Oreo version. But despite this, the Mountain View company is now manifesting its concern for a few generations old Android Lollipop users.

Google’s voice assistant – Google Assistant will now be available on older phones running Android 5.0 Lollipop OS. With this compatibility, it will now add 26 percent (as per Android distribution chart) ‘install base’ to the virtual personal assistant’s platform. And while major updates are yet to take real shape in more than thousands of Android devices, users who own a 2-year old Android phone at least have one reason not to sulk, as they will finally be able to access one of Google’s best features.
