Gemini Air and Remote work with non-contract stream plan?

If I sign up for DirecTV stream (month to month, no 24-month commitment), purchase a Gemini Air and remote (say from Solid Signal), will I be able to use the voice feature to say “Fox News”?  My dad needs voice commands—he cannot navigate easily with buttons on the remote.  He wants to push the microphone button and say “Fox News”.  Will it work?

Thanks!

We appreciate you’re considering getting our service. That is a great idea, and it works. Remember, the Voice control is available through Google Assistant after completing the setup process. However, using your own device is the only way to sign up for DIRECTV STREAM without a contract. You can check the compatible devices here: https://www.directv.com/support/article/000066174 On the other hand, you can enjoy Fox News and CBS channels depending on your market, please visit: https://www.directv.com/tvpromise/ to get more details. If you need further assistance, don’t hesitate to contact us, DIRECTV is here to assist. Jhoan, DIRECTV Community Specialist
