Google is making quite a few changes to its company and products. After the layoffs, it has announced that it will soon be ditching some underutilized features on Google Assistant.

With Mother's Day approaching, Google today announced new Assistant features such as cross-device broadcasts called Family Broadcasts, new Family Bell reminders, new stories for kids, more.
