I would give this five if it had better trigger names. I mean , snow boy? Really? What even if that? And why Alexa and google before actually useful names. Hey phone, or similar would be better. For now sticking with Jarvis.

So I got this for my cromebook which just recently got the google assistant feature.I got this app because "ok google" is just a hard phrase to say.But when I tried to get the app to work my chromebook just didn't seem to think that the hotword was what it should respond to. Hopefully this will be changed soon.

About this app

You can use Hotword Changer to access your Assistant (Your default assist app or whatever opens when you long-press the home button) with different hotwords.

Hotword Changer lets you use voice wake-up feature even when the screen is turned off.

By default, Hotword Changer will recognize you when you say like "Jarvis" etc. whenever the screen is on or your device is charging.

However, you can run it when the screen is off but comes at the cost of increased battery usage!
(Not recommended)

Unless specified otherwise, you should turn it off after showing off in front of others!
It ain't perfect yet & I ain't done yet!

There are only four hotwords available right now but support for custom hotword will be available soon.

Note:
*Simultaneous recording in apps is not allowed for third-party apps on Android. Hotword Changer makes this possible using a lot of hacks. Some features may or may not work.
*Feedbacks are appreciated.
*Devices not respecting "Android Foreground Services" will kill the app in the background. Check the OEMs website for possible solutions.
