Nice features except one very annoying bug. When accessing the assistant from the lock screen, the screen will never turn off without physical interaction with the phone. For example, saying, "Hey Google, turn off the lights." It'll do it, but your phone will stay illuminated in the lock screen for the rest of the night. My old Note 9 didn't have this bug. Otherwise, it's decent.

Only responds when maps is running! I can't get this to respond unless I have maps running. If I ask for anything other than 'send text' or 'call' it says it can't help me. 10 years ago I paid $9.99 for a voice assistant that could actually do things including playing music and reading text from websites. This app is as useful as manure to an alligator.

Assistant used to be an efficient AI that could mostly follow any command. With Gemini, it's basically useless. Trying to use assistant to change the music while driving? Crash. Ask it a basic question? That's a 30 second delay and possibly a "sorry, I don't understand." The final straw for me was asking it to remember where I parked and learning it marked me a half hour walk away. I couldn't imagine what would have happened if I wasn't familiar with the area. Please, we have to go back.
