you will spend hours on it and leave feeling frustrated and dizzy. example: I asked about car audio upgrades, giving parameters. Moved on to other subjects and then back to speakers. Well, completely different responses, items. Requested it to remember and got more different responses. argued with it, I got frustrated. Repeatedly requests for items at Amazon or Walmart, I got no such thing only eBay, which I don't use. Can't seem to remember.

This app has gone downhill so fast, it can only handle the most basic voice commands, and even then sometimes it really has trouble with just basic Google searches. It also doesn't actually DO anything, it constantly requires permissions or some kind of hands-on interaction to do literally anything. need directions? The hands-free option is not hands-free. need to set an alarm or make an event or play music for your morning routine? literally everything needs you to actively be on the phone.

My assistant works ok. Not nearly as well as it used to, tho. Seems like it's becoming dumb. Maybe from too many "bug fixes and improvements". I long for the days when you could ask anything, and get a verbal answer every time. I feel like if I hear "I'm sorry, I don't understand", one more time, I'm gonna go buy an iPhone. And definitely no Gemini please. Sounds sketchy, atm
