Google Assistant has a lot of tools that can help you organize your day. You can create an interactive checklist for your morning or nighttime routine. It's great for kids and works with smart displays and speakers.

The checklists are part of the "Family Bell" features. A regular "Family Bell" is a single announcement at a certain time. Checklists take it to the next level by guiding you through things on your list. On a smart display, you get a nice user interface, but it also works with audio-only speakers.
