I bought a Samsung Watch 6 Classic, and I'm very happy with my purchase. I want to install a voice assistant that's compatible with my devices, like Alexa or Google Assistant, but I discovered that these assistants can't be installed and are not available for my device in the Play Store. It seems crazy that a device with the features of this Samsung watch forces us to use Bixby, a very limited assistant. How can I at least install Google Assistant?

Thank you for reaching out. I can certainly understand the importance that assistants play in our daily lives as I use my Google Assistant regularly. Google Assistant is now available on Galaxy watches with Wear OS. Now you’ll have another handy assistant who can help you with your daily tasks, such as setting alarms or timers, making reminders, and even controlling music! Just give it your command, and Google Assistant will be happy to oblige. Please use this link to set up the Google Assistant on your watch: https://www.samsung.com/us/support/answer/ANS00090782/

google assistant is pre-installed you gotta go to settings > advance feature > customize buttons, you should find the option to change assistants there. make sure you have the "Google assistant" app installed.
