Google Home, the tech giant's digital assistant and answer to the popular Amazon Echo, is adding a long list of new features, Google vice president Rishi Chandra announced at the company's I/O conference Wednesday. The laundry list of upgrades includes more helpful notifications, Bluetooth connectivity, and an expansion to non-U.S. markets. 。

Chandra called his mom from the stage to demonstrate Google Home's new hands-free calling. All you have to say is, "Hey Google, call mom," or whomever you'd like to ring on cell and landlines throughout the U.S. and Canada. The new calling feature is rolling out in the next few months, Chandra said. 。

The new features don't stop there. Bluetooth support is also coming to Google Home, so you'll be able to hook up your Bluetooth-enabled devices to play audio on Google Home. 。

The final big reveal was visual responses. Currently Google Home offers auditory assistance, like telling you what's next on your calendar. Now with visual responses, you can ask Google what's next on your schedule and directions to your event will come up on your phone or whichever device you want. 。
Through Chromecast, Google Home can display things on your TV screen — such as the weather or a YouTube clip. You can even ask Google Assistant to turn off your TV. No remotes or hands required. 。
