This feature already comes in your gadget as a Google Assistant, but it can’t track your order placed with any online retailer. This feature is not yet in the long list of Google Home.
If you ask Google Home to track your order, it will just respond, “I can’t do that yet.”

The search giant Google introduced a new search algorithm update called product reviews update. According to Google, the update is designed to “better reward” well-researched, in-depth content by ranking them over simple brief product summaries. Just to clear things up, this is a standalone update, not a regular core search algorithm update, meaning it won’t impact all search results. This update targets product reviews in particular. In its latest announcement, Google said that it is constantly working to present the searchers with the most helpful and valuable information possible via experimenting, testing, and review processes.
