Default Lexus Assistant with Android

I'm wondering if there was ever an implement to hold the voice button on the steering wheel to activate the google assistant just like for iPhones? I hold the button but it only activates the Lexus assistant. I have the Pixel 2 and I use "Hey Google" to activate it, but it doesn't always hear me over blasting music.

You hold the phone off-hook button to activate Siri. The Voice button is for the Lexus voice assistant. Not sure if it works with Android but give it a try.

That worked! I've always thought it was the assistant button for some reason. Thank you!
