The use of this function does not present any problems, either it is important to use proper instructions. As, as you will sometimes have, Google Assistant doesn't always understand what we want to do next. In this type of command, it is important to understand and not be overly complicated when we have to ask for something. Word order can have a powerful effect on many situations.
It's great when we say something like "OK Google, call WhatsApp on (contact name" or "Ok Google, make a video call on WhatsApp to (contact name)) or call (contact name) on WhatsApp video. Any of these commands will allow us use this function normally, without having to repeat that command several times. Therefore, these steps are as follows:
- Open the Google Assistant on your phone.
- Use the command in question (as shown above).
- State clearly both WhatsApp and the person's name in that order.
- If you have many people with that name, choose who to call it.
- Wait for the call to start.
- Talk to that person.
