Is there any evidence of Google actually doing this on a widespread basis? The Home is specifically designed to be an always-on microphone. My phone isn't.

I'm not sure if it's on by default, but the "OK Google" feature presumably requires an always-listening microphone on your phone.

The difference in the quality of the microphones make it quiet impractical in phone, but very easy in a google home device.
