Recent update broke it. I don't need a voice assistant, I need a quick button to search amd translate the screen, that's all. It tries to be a "smart" assistant a bit too hard, removing these 2 important features just because it doesn't think there is any text on screen, it's really frustrating. On top of all this you cannot disable microphone permissions, it just brute force enables it without any change in settings

Google Assistant fails to make a sound to indicate it is active on my S20+, so it's pretty useless, since I never know if Google Assistant is actually activated and ready unless I'm looking at my phone, in which case I would not need Google Assistant. Could not find an option for the App to make a confirmation sound after saying "ok Google". PS: will send Feedback report as suggested and added one star for quick developer response. PS: As suggested in the review reply, I have submitted the issue via the Feedback form. It is quite simple: I say "OK Google", but never know whether my phone is "listening", as there is no confirmation sound. I have to LOOK at my phone to see if the assistant responds or is listening, but that sort of defeats the purpose for me.

This assistant is such a source of frustration. I wish smartphones were never invented in the first place. It rarely gets what you mean. It rarely has the permission to do what you need. I'd like if the assistant would allow me not to look at the phone. And if it would suggest spontaneously improvements to my schedule. You know, like an "assistant". Most of the times it loses connection anyway and won't respond
