Hotword detection doesn’t work for me. Has something else be activated? (e.g. in google app)

Is this feature only for the extreme version? Btw I have the free version but it isn’t appearing in the play store under my apps or when it is searched. Can only be accessed when I open the store link on your website

Lukas Morawietz I have both activated, under Lightning options global -> ok Google and in Android system settings too.

This one crashes on load on gingerbread…
Just remember to make a backup before installing a beta! 😉

Ingo Paar I have activated everything I can find, it still doesn’t work 🙁

Sorry for the crash, there was a specific test for pre kit kat devices but it wasn’t just enough. tested on 4.3 and 4.4 but not on older versions… An update will appear soon.
Lukas Morawietz did you try to restart the launcher, maybe the connection with the google service has to be restarted after the hotword detection settings are changed ?

< ![CDATA[
Pierre Hébert yes, I tried even restarting my phone. For testing I placed a google search widget on my homescreen. When hotword detection is active, the mic should be filled. It is indeed filled when I enter LLX from another app, but turns to unfilled a second later

speaking of this im looking for a widget that, when i tap on it, brings up the little voice popup instead of opening the google now app. for example i have a voice gallery app that allows me to find photos with voice and it brings up the popup. but when i try to use the built in google widget it opens the app. its annoying. can anyone help?

As always, make a backup before installing a beta!
Check Pierre Hébert’s “useful links” post that is pinned to the top.

Strange things happening here. I have a 4.3 phone. The new beta arrived yesterday morning while I was at work. I installed it and enabled hotwords, but didn’t spend any time playing (would have annoyed my colleagues). There was another update later and the hotwords option has now disappeared!
(Now on revision 1760 for what it’s worth)

< ![CDATA[
Same thing happened to me, restart the phone helped

< ![CDATA[
i cant even find the option to play with hotword detection. i thought i was in beta.
]]>
< ![CDATA[
Ingo Paar thanks for the suggestion, hasn’t helped 🙁

< ![CDATA[
I see, checked again at the moment, is not working. Have a look some posts over this one. Some more people got problems too.
]]>
< ![CDATA[
Ah well, it’s early days yet..

< ![CDATA[
Hotwords is only available for 4.4. I added a check to hide the option on devices with previous Android versions, but I don’t remember exactly whether it was between the update or not (it is likely!).
]]>
< ![CDATA[
Pierre Hébert how to i get a hold of the beta please?
]]>
< ![CDATA[
great… so unless we have a 4.4 android theres no point in even updating. nvm then

Curtis Sylvester Jr. except if you need the option to permanently hide the action bar in the app drawer, no

< ![CDATA[
Pierre Hébert that explains it then. A shame though… OK Google is present on 4.3 but I assume the API isn’t exposed to developers
