At least I can use Shazam
Google assistant is useless. I can’t rely on it when I’m driving.
Somehow the assistant manages to instantly turn on and respond any time I don’t need it, but when I do, I have to repeat myself at least 10 times, for a basic question
Pretty much the reason I never used it on my last phone. Even went through the steps to have it recognize my voice better, and even when it hears it the first time there’s a 1 second delay before it actually starts listening, which makes me further contemplate why I bothered.
Yeah, Assistant blows much of the time:
“Hey Google. What’s two plus two?”
“Sorry, I don’t understand. But I found something similar. Would you like to know what two plus two is?”
“Yes, dammit!”
“On the website Add A Couple of Numbers for the Hell of It, they say, two plus two is four. Would you like a little more context?”
“No!!!”
“Alright. I’m here to help.”
Arrgh.
What do you mean, [Buffering 55%] by Radio Melody is such a banger
Wait til you hear ‘404’ or ‘not available in your country’

dang that is a VERY weird bug. I’ve never had it, it always worked fine for me, but this is fascinating

He uses sarcasm…
It is there to spy, not to assist
On pixel 2 and 3 this shit was amazing. I never had an issue with Google Assistant absolutely perfect assistant app. Then I got a samsung fold and, despite allegedly being the same app, it sucks all the donkey dick and balls. It’s clearly not the same Assistant, and if it IS then google fucking ruined it.
It struggles recognizing the switch from wifi to data. Getting in my car and giving it commands to play music takes forever because it hangs up with the (now distant and poor) wifi
Commands to call people when I’m outside (walking dog, garden etc) suck for the same reason.
Voice to text is trash. It’s always getting words wrong, mishearing requests, or putting words that I didn’t fucking say. Half of my sentences start with “is” for some reason. “Is I need you to get dog food” like bruhhhh
I thought it was just because Google was punishing samsung users to push Pixels. This thread makes me feel vindicated. I wasnt wrong or mis-remembering with rose tinted glasses. It really is hot garbage lol
This has been happening to me on a Pixel 6 and it’s annoying as hell. Their assistant has devolved
walking dog, garden etc
Your garden can walk? /j
I mean, yeah, if you’re playing media, it’s going to assume that’s what you want to identify and will pull from that source, first. Why activate the mic if you don’t need it to?
Wasn’t this a key feature on pixel? Continuous song identification?
It is, and I quite enjoy it.
Does it work like what OP is saying? Based on your response don’t think it is
Close enough

And technically correct
fun fact, audio players don’t typically use sound to get song titles, they use metadata in the file itself, which is how it also gets the artist name, album and track number, among other things
But this isn’t audio player.
Speaking of metadata, I recommend Kid3 tag editor.
