Dish Network customers won't have to change the channel from their remote controls anymore. Now, they can just ask Google.
Dish Network announced on Monday that all generations of its Hopper DVR (https://mashable.com/2014/01/06/dish-hopper-ces-2014/) set-top boxes will be compatible with Google Assistant, allowing customers to control the channel with their voice. The feature is compatible with Google Home (https://mashable.com/category/google-home/) speakers and the Google Assistant (https://mashable.com/category/google-assistant/) app on iOS and Android.
