The killin.. changes come a week after Google announced that Assistant with Bard is nearing its full official release to Android. Most of these features are related to voice commands on smart speakers and smartphones so it shouldn’t really affect the overall functionality of Assistant unless you extensively use one of the above features.

If you are not sure if you use any of the aforementioned features, starting January 26 Google Assistant will start showing a “This feature is being deprecated” message when you try to use the feature.
