Ok Google hotword detection on iPhone 6s for Google now

I am switching to iPhone from Android. I've always used Google Now on my phone with the hotword detection from any screen. I found that feature very useful and I believe Google Now is more useful than Siri anyway. So now "Hey Siri" works I was wondering whether Ok Google would also work. Thanks in advance.

"Ok Google" won't likely work unless the Google app is open and active... Seems like that's how it works on the present iOS and crop of phones.
