DISH designed the remote to interpret natural language, populating search results based on program title, actor or genre, and building contextual searches to narrow options, as desired.

Customers with a DISH voice remote and a broadband-connected Hopper (all generations), Joey (all models) or Wally can access the Google Assistant once they receive the software update.

The Joey clients are Dish’s add-on receivers that allow you to extend Dish’s TV service to other rooms in your home without the need for a separate DVR.
