Why is Android not pushing a standalone emoji update rather than waiting for whole OS update?

Posted: 29 Nov 2017 03:30 AM PST

What I mean here is an outdated version of emoji on older version of Android. We know that Android only support 2 or 3 years of OS upgrade, unlike the iPhone which is 5 years and those iPhone able to get the latest version of emoji. Since emoji is everywhere and it's kind of annoying to see empty boxes everywhere.

Discussion: You should be able to set different Assistant wakeup phrases so you can choose whether to wake your watch, phone, tablet, or smart speaker

...or whatever other devices they might add voice to.

It could be totally optional, and/or still behave as it does now if you just say "Okay Google".

Yes, my phone will eventually go "Answering on another device", but that's sometimes annoying because it interrupts what my phone was doing, or I want my phone or watch to answer - for example, wetting a timer on the Home is no good because I can't just glance at my wrist and see it.

The steps to manually invoke Google Assistant on my phone are:

Pick up phone
Hard press the home button area\lock button
Swipe my security pattern (No chance of reaching the fingerprint sensor on the Note 8, nor does it work anyway)
Swipe up to show the nav buttons
Hold down the home button

Whereas the steps to activate Okay Google are:

Just say 'Okay Google'.

I like "Okay Google". It's a good feature. But if I want to use it on my watch, my phone and Home Mini both go off, and then the Home Mini takes over.

Let's add "Okay watch", "Okay Home", and "Okay phone".

Thoughts? How would you implement this? What are the potential problems?
