Wake word on mobile is very exciting, but it doesn't seem to work on my device. It won't even let me turn it on, and says that HA is not my default assistant even though it definitely is.

I've got it working on my S24. I've been waiting so long for this.

Ended up having to change my default assistant, then change it back to Homeassistant for it to recognize that it was the default. There's already a bug report for it as well.

I was excited too! But they mention it kills the battery as Google doesn't let the access the system API for it, so we'll see whether it stays enabled.

I used their advice from the blog to make an automation that turns it on when I'm home, and off when I'm away.

I spend 90% of my time at home so that probably won't help my battery much 😅
