Google Assistant

I am unable to add a shared calendar to my google nest hub as the add calendar functionality is broken. We have a shared calendar and google home cannot access it because the assistant apps ability to add calendars is broken (spinning wheel of death and time out)

Works ok in some circumstances. Fails miserably in others. I can mange one home without issue but the family home I can only share some things. Invites can’t be approved for reasons unknown. Sadly it’s paired to that joke of a home app so if you bought google stuff you are kind of stuck. Works ok if you are a single person with nobody else ever wanting to access the house. If you don’t meet this criteria this really isn’t for you.

Extremely stupid

Suidid spuid ai won’t give me my chicken nuggggies

It couldn’t even answer the question. Can you create an event on my APPLE calendar? It just keep it just kept on wanting to try and create the event. It wouldn’t actually answer the question and I tried it with several other things and it was useless. Don’t bother.

I understand that family bell has been discontinued (my family’s most used feature) but since a recent update, I can not even access the family bell to turn them off. Now, they are stuck playing bells no longer needed. As my google nests are also my wifi, I can’t even just turn the device off. Unless there is a fix soon, the hardware will be worthless. I have reached out to support already who have advised there is no current fix for this issue. With all the features being discontinued over the years, this purchase has been very regrettable.

I can control 1 device by voice then will not allow another, the only way is to close the app and reopen it. iPhone 15 pro max iOS 17.5.1

Initially downloaded, along with some other AI apps, but this isn’t for me, and was deleted without any use. I wanted something similar to OpenAI ChatGPT which my accepts questions about any possible subject, can perform calculations, and is useful for brainstorming variations of scenarios. This doesn’t do any of that. Plus, I don’t like the idea of my speech being recorded and used for their own purposes, which includes human listeners. “But they don’t do that anymore”. Sure they don’t, and I have a bridge to sell at a bargain price. If this app is for the majority of people, then the standards have been rapidly declining. Are people really that inept that they can’t make a reminder, choose which music to play, or get the same weather forecast that can be found easily elsewhere? Lazy minds and idle hands. I am also not in favour of a few behemoth companies/individuals recording and controlling every aspect of one’s online presence. The other AI apps I use are completely free and don’t require access to anything. Goodbye Google Assistant.

It would be much better if AI was incorporated into the search instead of just presenting a webpage that it actually bought up information that I was looking for. Having a webpage presented to me it’s not really providing me with an answer. Let’s hope technology improves with time.

My biggest peve with Google music is the same music over and over again It feels like Google earns more by playing the same music over and over as opposed to as more intelligently diversified mix that Spotify is known for
