When I encountered the “Something Went Wrong” error on Google Assistant, I was initially frustrated. However, I was determined to find a solution, so I started searching for possible fixes. After some trial and error, I found a solution that worked for me. Here’s what you can do if you encounter the same error:
1. Open the Google Play Store on your Android device. You can usually find it in your app drawer or on your home screen.
2. Once the Google Play Store is open, tap on the search bar at the top of the screen and type in “Google.”
3. As you type, the app should show up in the search results. Tap on it to open the Google app page.
4. On the Google app page, you should see an option to “Update” the app. Tap on this option to start the update process.
5. Let the update complete. This may take a few minutes, depending on your internet connection speed.
6. Once the update is finished, go back to your home screen and try using Google Assistant again.
By updating the Google app, you are ensuring that you have the latest version of the app, which may include bug fixes and performance improvements. This can often resolve the “Something Went Wrong” error.
I followed these steps myself, and after updating the Google app, I found that the Google Assistant started working properly again. I was able to use voice commands and get responses without encountering the error.
It’s worth mentioning that if updating the Google app doesn’t solve the issue, you may want to try clearing the cache and data for the Google app. To do this, go to your device’s Settings, then Apps or Application Manager, find the Google app, and tap on it. From there, you can clear the cache and data. However, be aware that clearing the data will reset any personalized settings or preferences in the Google app.
If you ever encounter the “Something Went Wrong” error on Google Assistant, updating the Google app is a good first step to try. It worked for me, and I hope it works for you too.
