An update to Chrome beta a few weeks ago came with the bizarre side effect that hotword detection no longer worked
in the Google search app or in the Google Now Launcher (GNL). The next
version of Chrome beta didn't do anything to fix it, either. Well,
Google Search to the rescue – yesterday's big search update seems to have fixed hotword detection.
After the update, the mic icon is again filled in the Google search bar,
indicating the app is listening for the "Ok Google" hotword. And
indeed, it works. We've checked this out on a few devices, and it
appears to be legit. So now you can go back to talking to your phone
normally, just like every other day.
