Google Assistant No Longer Works

NJPhist · Mar 2, 2020

Hi,

I'm having an issue controlling my Xbox One X using Google Assistant. It had been working perfectly fine for some time but as of yesterday, it has stopped working. Whenever I attempt to issue a command I receive - "Sorry something went wrong controlling
the Xbox. Please try again."

Nothing has changed in regards to my settings/wifi etc, it's just randomly stopped working. Any ideas?

Thank you in advance.

UPDATE: Resolved by hard resetting my Xbox and resetting/reconnecting the Xbox via the Google Home app. Basically stated afresh.

Thank you for your prompt reply!

I checked all the aforementioned, but sadly to no resolve.

There has been an update lately, so that may have something to do with it. I'm just going to do another hard reset of the console and re-add the console to the Assistant app.

Hi NJPhist

Perhaps the service was just down?

Also try signing out of your profile/account, restart the console and sign back in and try again.

Also check if the console updated recently. Then make sure your settings are still correct. Guide below:

Set your power mode to instant-on:
1. Press the Xbox button  to open the guide.
2. Select System > Settings > General > Power mode & startup.
3. Select Instant-on from the Power mode drop down menu.
Enable digital assistants. Go to System > Settings > Devices & streaming > Digital assistants, and then select Enable digital assistants.
Sign in to your Xbox.

it's a matter of commercial sane, it might be a matter of time or it never happens

Honestly, they are direct competitors and I doubt it would happen, and honestly I don't want want any of Google's junk on my Xbox.
