Is Google Always Listening on Android? Even if you don't have the OK Google hotword enabled, you can still use voice commands (which Google records too). Tapping the microphone icon on the search bar or holding the Home button to open Google Assistant will both immediately prompt you for a voice command.
Here's how to stop that:
- Login to Google's "My Activity" page (all your web activity, basically)
- Tap filter by "Date & Product"
- Tap "Deselect All"
- Tap "Voice & Audio"
- Tap "Apply"
- Tap on "Voice and Audio" above whatever file you want to listen to.
- Tap "View recording" and play.
Why, yes, it probably is. When you use your default settings, everything you say may be recorded through your device's onboard microphone. Our phones routinely collect our voice data, store it in a distant server, and use it for marketing purposes. Your phone isn't the only device that's watching and listening to you.
"What's on my screen," previously known as "Now on Tap," is one of the suggestion chips that show up when you activate Assistant (the old interface, not the Pixel 4's new one) in any app on your phone. It doesn't appear if you're on the homescreen, because it needs something to be on the screen to do its thing.
Tapping A Microphone Is Unprofessional
Tapping a microphone is a terrible way to check sound not only because it could cause damage or annoy the audience, but also because it's simply not a good way to check sound in a microphone. Tapping a microphone annoys everyone in the room, sound operators most of all.How to Set Google Now to Always On in Android 5.0

Google's smart assistant does not have a name, nor can you give a custom name. I know you all have at least a dozen names that you would love to the Assistant. But for now, you all you can do is change the Assistant's voice from female to male. It will be really fun to call Google Assistant by a name.
