### Phone
|
||||
_Want to use Home Assistant with Google Assistant or Amazon Alexa? Get started with [Home Assistant Cloud](https://www.nabucasa.com/config/)._
|
||||
|
||||
The easiest way to get started with Assist is probably by using it on your phone.
|
||||
## Assist on your phone
|
||||
|
||||
The easiest way to get started with Assist is by using it on your phone.
|
||||
|
||||
- Inside the Home Assistant app in the top-right corner, select the Assist icon.
|
||||
- On Apple devices via [Siri and Assist shortcuts](/voice_control/apple).
|
||||
- On Android phones as the default [digital assistant or home screen shortcut](/voice_control/android).
|
||||
- On a tablet in kiosk mode, you can use a [dashboard button](/voice_control/start_assist_from_dashboard/) to start Assist.
|
||||
|
||||
### Watch
|
||||
## Voice assistant devices using Assist
|
||||
|
||||
Assist is also available on watches:
|
||||
Voice assistant devices allow you to add Assist to a room and respond to wake words. Follow our tutorial to [create your own for just $13.](/voice_control/thirteen-usd-voice-remote/)
|
||||
|
||||
- On Wear OS watches as the default digital assistant or using [Assist tile or complication](/voice_control/android/#assist-on-wear-os/).

### Google Assistant or Amazon Alexa
|

|
||||
_Want to use Home Assistant with Google Assistant or Amazon Alexa? Get started with [Home Assistant Cloud](https://www.nabucasa.com/config/)._
|
||||
|
||||
### Analog phone
|
||||
|
||||
With the Voice over IP integration, you can even use an [analog phone](/voice_control/worlds-most-private-voice-assistant/) to talk to Assist.

|
||||
|
||||
### ESPHome
|
||||
|
||||
And of course you can use [ESPHome devices](/voice_control/thirteen-usd-voice-remote/), to create your own awesome Assistant device. Like @piitaya did with his 3D printed R5 droid.
|
||||
You can use [ESPHome](https://www.esphome.io/components/voice_assistant.html) to create your own awesome voice assistant, like [@piitaya](https://github.com/piitaya) did with his 3D printed R5 droid:

|
||||
|
||||
## Wake words
|
||||
## Assist on your watch
|
||||
|
||||
You can [enable a wake word](/voice_control/install_wake_word_add_on) to activate Assist. There are predefined wake words, such as "OK Nabu", but you can also [define your own wake word](/voice_control/create_wake_word/)
|
||||
Assist is available on watches. On Wear OS watches you can set Assist as the default digital assistant or add the [Assist tile or complication](/voice_control/android/#assist-on-wear-os/).

|
||||
## Assist on your analog phone
|
||||
|
||||
If you are interested in a voice assistant that is not always listening, consider using Assist on an analog phone. It will only listen when you pick up the horn, and the responses are for your ears only. Follow our tutorial to create your own [analog phone voice assistant](/voice_control/worlds-most-private-voice-assistant/).

## Custom wake words
|
||||
|
||||
Wake words allow you to activate Assist by saying an activation phrase instead of pressing a button. [Learn how to configure a wake word.](/voice_control/install_wake_word_add_on). There are predefined wake words, such as "OK Nabu", but you can also [define your own wake word](/voice_control/create_wake_word/)
