Google Assistant is getting a major upgrade that will allow users to store and remember almost any information and easily find it later.

According to 9to5 Google, the enhanced memory feature combines to-do lists, scrapbooks, reading lists, and digital archives to store and easily retrieve anything. It is said to be already being tested within Google, but no word yet on when it will be rolled out.

Google Assistant already has a memory feature, but it is quite limited at this time, allowing you to verbally tell the assistant to remember things and have it remind you later. [9to5Google reports that a huge variety of content can be stored, including "articles, books, contacts, events, flights, hotels, images, movies, music, notes, photos, places, playlists, products, recipes, reminders, restaurants, screenshots, shipments, TV shows, videos, and websites." The company reports that it can.

The site offers a selection of screenshots from the new memory feature, and it is intriguing to see what will be possible.

Once something is saved, it will be viewable in a new memory feed within the Assistant, alongside the existing snapshot feature. This will be organized in reverse chronological order, but Google will provide both "old memories" and "today" card items.

And similar to the recent Google Photos changes with the enhanced role of the "Lens" visual search feature, Memory will also provide contextually relevant content alongside what you have saved. For example, saving flight information might show flight status alongside, or a list of movies alongside trailers. [In addition to asking the assistant verbally, you can easily add what you are seeing on the screen using the shortcuts on the home screen. Saved items could also be labeled so they can be easily found later.

We don't know when Memory will be available (assuming it actually passes Google's internal testing), but it sounds like a great upgrade. We expect it to appear not too long from now.
