We just learned that Gemini is replacing Google Assistant on Android. Google quietly announced that Assistant is losing 7 more features.

    That’s the idea. They want Gemini to supercede it, but they released it feature incomplete compared to assistant.

      I wouldn’t mind it, if it could do the basic things I need an assistant to do. When they first started pushing Gemini, I couldn’t even get it to do simple things like send a text or a set a reminder. I’m sure it’s gotten better since then, but just immediately failing at what I would consider the bare minimum really soured Gemini for me. Still haven’t reinstalled it, counting down the days until Google forces it on me.
