Google opens up digital assistant to iPhone

New York: Announcing on Wednesday that it would make its digital assistant available on Apple Inc's iPhone, Alphabet Inc's Google opened up the tool to a key high-end segment of the technology market.

Speaking at an annual developer conference in Mountain View, California, Google CEO Sundar Pichai touted the company`s progress with the Google Assistant.

The Assistant debuted last year on Google’s own hardware, and the company has gradually extended the tool to devices from other manufacturers running on its Android operating system.
