Good News for all the smartphone-using Potterheads out there! According to a report by The Telegraph, online search engine giant Google will now enable users to control their phone using certain spells from the 'Harry Potter' universe.


This can be done by activating Google voice assistant, either by saying OK Google or pressing the microphone icon in the search bar.


Latin spells like "Lumos" or "Silencio" will help the user to activate some phone functions.

"Lumos", which is the spell to light up the wand tip like torch will enable to turn the flash light on your smartphone, while "Nox" will turn it off, and "Silencio" will put the phone in silent mode.

These new features by Google are as a result of a tie-in with the upcoming film, 'Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them'.
