Just deactivate all the assistants altogether. I always delete all the Google stuff from my phones and I don’t think I’m missing out on anything. I have a clock app including timers, a calendar app, a notes app and a browser… What would I need an “assistant” for?

Gemini is a shit show. I tell it to put something on my shopping list and it tells me it did, but it lied. The voice is annoying and it peonounces the word “ninety” incorrectly half the time. It refuses to start navigating for me. I hate it.

Seems an odd place for people to be ranking google assistants

The Google assistant was ok, Gemini is pure garbage. I’m sorry for your loss.

Really, I found they completely messed up Google assistant and Gemini is a hundred times better at free form queries. Google Assistant hasn’t been good for two years now.

I liked when I could say"hey Google, open Libby app" while driving, and it would open my audio book, or “hey Google, play ______ on Spotify” and it would automatically do it. Gemini seems to always want to search the web instead of actually opening the apps, which is annoying, but I refuse to use it so no major loss for me, I guess. All that to say, I agree.

Your phone will run GrapheneOS wonderfully
