DIRECTV Google Assistant Support

Does DIRECTV have support Google Assistant on the roadmap?  Dish supports Google Assistant.   I am a long-time very loyal DIRECTV customer - but lack of integration with my home automation might be a deal down the road.

I like Google Assistant and use it for some things, but it interrupts my browsing when using my remote. Can I change its behavior?

I like Google Assistant and use it for some things, like finding a specific show that airs in the future that I want to set up to record. But when I am browsing the guide and seeing what shows are playing at that moment, after maybe 30 seconds, Google Assistant interrupts my browsing.....stops it..

If you do not use your Google Assistant then you can turn it off in settings. If you need help doing this go into the settings, then go to device preferences, then go to Google Assistant then turn it to the off position.
