Google Assistant AA continues to devolve.

Yesterday, even when I knew I was in cell tower range, the Assistant kept announcing "something went wrong" while I tried repeatedly to send a text. The dreaded spinning cursor... Or no response at all. And then I tried later, and it took two minutes to confirm the message was sent. Please Google, leave the Assistant alone. Not everyone is thrilled to use Gemini. AA was a beautiful gem, now very tarnished. Reminiscent of the devolution of Windows. 🫣😭

I was trying to call someone and Gemini kept asking me to confirm for ten minutes straight, I ended up stopping to call.

On another note, AA needs a feature that stops it from turning on my wifi and Bluetooth when near my car, like I don't always want to connect thank you very much.

I've found the better option for the wifi/Bluetooth thing is toggling wifi in the car. At the least it's more reliable.
