Adding another arrow to its smart-home quiver, Google said Wednesday that it's expanding its personal voice assistant onto tablets and phones running Android Lollipop.

Google Assistant, like competitors Alexa, Siri and Cortana, answers all sorts of questions ranging from the weather to your flight information to your next appointment. And it can help out around the house, powering smart devices like plugs and lights and keeping your shopping list.
