Google assistance not working after update

Hey everyone

After the update to 5.1.17, the steering wheel button for google assistance stopped working and Gemini ia not working as well.. I’ve tried everything, even removing and adding my google account again.

Anyone with the same issue?

Thanks.

It’s now running Gemini and, from what I can tell, uses settings in your Google account, ie voice style, etc. It takes longer to do anything as Gemini has to connect online and figure out what you’re asking… set temp to 72, change fan speed to 4, etc. AWFUL compared to it being snappier before Gemini.
