Ratings and reviews

Google assist would just randomly pop up for no reason. Noticed this was getting an update so went back into settings/apps and found it and disabled it. It is not required for Google Assistant to continue to work. Qualcomm Voice Assist is disabled and wouldn't ya know Google Assistant recognizes when I say "hey google" perfectly fine and seems to detect even faster. Let's see if the random pop ups now stop cause I got a feeling this here is the culprit.

It doesn't work if your battery is too low There's no way to allow permission in low battery mode. it doesn't work went on charge. everything is turned on but it still doesn't work. The only way to get into the settings is to press the button on the side and then say "assistant settings". there's no other way to find them I've looked and ended up here. And I know the microphone on my phone works because I've dictated this entire review.

Only reason I picked OnePlus was because Samsung did the similar things with updates. Filling the phone space with installing bunch of rubbish or promoted apps. I hated not having control over my own device and not being able to uninstall them. Constant permission wars over terms of services, you can't use anything if you don't want their access to your information. Now here we are, installing update under the name of "fixing bugs" in One+, ending up with apps from Google, Meta, etc. Just stop
