I've got it working on my S24. I've been waiting so long for this.

    I was excited too! But they mention it kills the battery as Google doesn't let the access the system API for it, so we'll see whether it stays enabled.

    I used their advice from the blog to make an automation that turns it on when I'm home, and off when I'm away.

    I spend 90% of my time at home so that probably won't help my battery much 😅

    You probably have a charger at home, though.

    Haha you got me, I do have a charger at home. I'm just not used to charging in the day, I normally charge overnight. But I guess I could charge more if needed.

    Following up. I found the mic/wakeword being active overnight prevented my Android Auto-Restart from occurring. Setup another automation to turn off wakeword overnight and turn it back on around my usual alarm time.

    I turned it off because it kept triggering when I (or someone else) was talking to my Home Assistant Voice Preview (which the blog says it won't do...). I also never really worked out good uses for it. My HAVP is in my kitchen/living room area, and is mostly used for playing music and kitchen related things (setting timers, unit conversions, etc).

    If I ask home assistant on my phone to play music, it plays it on the HAVP speaker in my kitchen. I don't really have a need for timers or conversions outside of the kitchen where I already have the HAVP so didn't find any use for it on my phone.
