Google is preparing to launch Google Assistant as a standalone app on iOS. The announcement to launch the assistant app could come as early as Google’s I/O conference scheduled for May 17 through May 19.
The app would likely feature a blend of the “chat” style functionality in the Google Allo version of Assistant and the voice-controlled version found on Android, but again, details are scant.
The Assistant will likely be only available in the United States at launch. It’s launch on iOS is expected to encourage more developers to integrate with its functionality.
