Ratings and reviews

I use the microphone in the search baalr wigit and it disrupts the power on and off function. I find it very un-useful. it slows down the amount of time to turn the home unlock screen for no reason for me. I also do know I can adjust the power button settings to control the power on off; not the home unlock screen..... android go. AI might need the assistants for that app but I'm not sure if that's what the functions were designed for.

This is a nice app. You just need to add some features that can be accessed without an internet connection. Also, why can't it play music? The farthest it can get is opening the app that has the song. And, you can't open it with just saying "Ok/Hey, Google". But long pressing the home button is good enough for me. Please fix these problems and someone explain to me why the Go edition has more problems than the normal.

The app sucks! when you double press the 'home' button or anything related to the home icon/displays this bloody app pops up like an ad, displaying over other apps or rather displaying and disrupting my current engagement(s) with my phone or when playing music. I hate it and I'm glad I got a way to uninstall it on my device.
