Ratings and reviews

Not only has assistant gotten slower unless accurate, but when you open links they open in the amp browser instead of Chrome. This would be great, except for the fact that The ability to review recently accessed pages has been removed. I have used Android since the HTC Hero, and I've never wanted to switch to an iPhone more than I do now, simply because I know I can count on them for maintaining a consistent user experience.

The app seems super easy and usable, except invariably if I have a queue that spans more than a couple of hours or days before I come back to it it will never be able to play those episodes ever again. My app is currently up to date, but the queue I made yesterday I states "unable to play". I've had this issue for years now. There are never any fixes. Even restarting the app does nothing. I have to clear my queue and hope it decides to work this time. It did this when I had a pixel phone, too.

What happened to collections? It has a huge navigation problem. After choosing a saved photo or video, and then exiting that item, it either kicks you out of that collection entirely or brings you back to the top of that collection. If you want to view items in sequence, you can't without re-entering that collection and/or scrolling down to the item you last selected. Please fix this to work like it used to. It took 3 years, but they finally fixed it. Thumbnail previews still missing.

What's new

• Use voice commands while navigating – even when your device has no connection. Try saying "cancel my navigation" "what's my ETA?" or "what's my next turn?"
• It's easier to access privacy settings from the homescreen. Just tap your Google Account profile picture.
