How to Enable Daily Update on Android and iOS

Daily update is an Assistant feature that lets users receive notifications about your Action at a scheduled time of day. When a user invokes one of your Action’s intents that you’ve configured as a daily update, they’ll get a notification that prompts them to subscribe. This registration prompt can appear mid-conversation or as a suggestion chip when the user exits your Action successfully.

When you enable daily updates, you’ll need to design an Assistant notification that’s short and useful on Android or iOS devices. Use the notifications best practices article for inspiration.

Make sure to show the value of your Action before offering a daily update subscription, and avoid over-prompting users to subscribe. For example, if your Action provides content on a topic that changes often, consider offering a daily update subscription only after you’ve shown them the benefit of the service. Then, make it easy for the user to opt out by letting them choose “No” when they’re asked if they want to continue receiving daily updates. If you do this, the daily updates system scene will automatically transition to End conversation.
