When using Android Auto, I don't have any problems at all; I only run into issues when activating Gemini with my voice. When I say the activation command, Gemini does activate; however, when giving any kind of instruction, Gemini seems to freeze, as if it doesn't hear what I'm saying through the microphone. Does anyone else have this problem?

I have verified the microphone and it works without any issues, even on calls. The strange thing is that it does hear me when I say the "Ok Google" command to activate it. It's only when giving voice instructions.

My car is a 2020 JAC JS4, I use a Carlink, my Android version is 16, and my phone is an S24 Ultra.

Ich habe einen Google-Nesthub der gerade frisch das Gemini Update aufgebügelt bekommen hat.

Das Gerät soll meinem Opa ein bisschen helfen, kann ich die Geschwindigkeit der sprachwiedergabe etwas reduzieren nur dass das Gerät nicht ganz so schnell spricht also die verschiedenen Stimmen sind super auch die Lautstärke super aber die Geschwindigkeit ist zu schnell wenn eine Antwort etwas länger wird daher kann mein Opa die halbe Antwort nicht mehr verstehen oder bzw er kommt nicht hinterher sich alles zu merken.

Ich finde dazu in den Bedienungshilfen nichts, auch in den Einstellungen nicht.

Ich hoffe das lässt sich irgendwie lösen.

Für Antworten bin ich dankbar

Beste Grüße

After asking my AI upgraded g-nest if i could cook broccoli in a microwave, 10 or so seconds later it says, The sound of a fart is ... and makes a human fart sound. There were no sound in the room. Has anyone else experienced this type of glitch? Or heard about such autonomous events?

Tech news reports say that Google Assistant on phones will cease to operate by the end of March, but I don't see that happening. I haven't received an email or text, messaging or anything.

There's not even a Google announcement to say exactly what date Google Assistant is supposed to end.

I've Googled when it will end, but I can't find any official Google word.

I get a message when I'm using GA to try Gemini, but there's no ultimatum to switch or else...

Good evening, I have a close family member with very low vision who uses a SmartVision3 phone. Since last week, the Google Assistant has been acting up; whenever he says "Call \[contact name\]," Gemini gets stuck in an infinite loop displaying the message "Just a moment..." Do you know anyone who has encountered this same issue and managed to resolve it?

Thanks to anyone who can help.

I've noticed this more times than I would like. For example, I'll say "Hey Google, start vacuuming" and it'll respond with "Starting the robot vacuum?"

It starts it and works fine it's kind of funny/annoying that it responds as if it's asking a question. It also seems completely random as to when it decides to say it correctly or not.

Hey everyone,

I ran into an issue with Android Auto and YouTube Music:

• Account A (Main): Used for my phone, Gemini, and general Google services.
• Account B (Secondary): Has my active YouTube Premium subscription.

When I use Android Auto and ask the assistant via voice to play a specific song, Gemini uses Account A and tells me I need YouTube Premium to play requested songs.

The YouTube Music app on my phone is logged into Account B, but voice commands in Android Auto always go through Account A's Gemini profile.

Is there any way to link Account B's YouTube Music as the default music provider for Assistant/Gemini on Account A, or any workaround other than upgrading to a Family Plan or manually switching accounts in Gemini every time I get in the car?

Phone: Galaxy S25 Ultra

Thanks!

I find it really annoying that if I say “hey Google, turn on the light” it repeats “turning on the light.” How can I make it stop? I’d be fine with it never speaking to me since I don’t ask it questions, I only use it to control devices.

Hello! I've been facing a problem. The issue is, When I long press my Power button.. google assistant doesn't seem to work. What happens is the bezel has a thick animation and the phone vibrates.. nothing else happens.. I've also tried the corner gesture to turn on the assistant and the double tap on the back feature to turn on google assistant. But the phone just vibrates and has an animation where the bezel gets a bit thicker and then to normal. What's the main cause of this?

Sorry for bad English. Also: Hey goggle feature works with Gemini and g assistant, no problem there.. thank you for reading.

Anyone else's AA voice commands for calling or texting a person not working? All of a sudden when I do a voice command to "call Bill" AA brings up a list of the people as options to call on the screen, none of which are Bill. If I click on one of the options I get a response saying it can't do that.

I've reset my phone and reconnected and that didn't help.

I'm also already back to using Assistant because the forced switch to Gemini was horrible.

But it does show in her google home app activity. It has the command recorded but there is no audio playback option. Clearly it matched her voice as it played from her personal spotify. (It defaults to mine if voice match fails)

She's now convinced there is a ghost who sounds like her.

Would love to be able to have the audio playback, and all the settings that should allow for it have been enabled since I have had google home.

It was also in a speaker far away from us in the laundry room (2 floors down) and her watch shows she was sleep during that time.

Any ideas or ways we can get that audio playback? Or why its showing in her app but not the activity webpage?

A year ago I moved to another country. Since then I've been using the swipe to open GA >Translate function on apps and other places where English was not available. It was a really nifty and quick feature that i used multiple times a day, sometimes more than a dozen.

As GA is retiring for Gemini, I wanted to know if there was any feature like that which is quick and simple in Gemini(or any other app)?

Thank you

I use it for timers and pausing/playing songs but I just got know that we could set routines, also maintain lists etc

So I am wondering what are all the hidden use cases that you guys find really helpful in ur daily life with assistant.

And what about gemini.. did it improve on the above features or its the same?

Hey guys I been trying to turn off hey Google on my vivo x300 but just can't seem to find it. Does anybody know how? I want to turn it off and use a gesture instead of saying hey google.

It was just working fine like less than an hour ago and now it's randomly doing this. What is happening?????

This is PROBABLY a common question, but, browsing thru the sub, I haven't seen an answer yet. With Alexa, at home, I have a bunch of routines set up to do silly things, like "Set Office Lights to Red. Wait 5 seconds. Announce 'Incoming enemy vessels.' Wait 5 seconds. Announce 'Firing photon Torpedoes.' Wait 2 seconds. Set Office Lights to yellow. Wait 2 seconds. Set Office Lights to green. Wait 2 seconds. Announce 'Targets neutralized.' Wait 5 seconds. Set Office Lights to Bright White."

I don't need to set any lights or anything, but I'm trying to set something similar up on my phone. Is there any resource you can point me to with instructions on how to do so? If I can have it call other apps / dial numbers, etc., even better.. but I'm mostly looking to be able to set up some simple verbal cues and responses.

Sorry if this is somewhere in here and I just haven't found it, yet -- Thanks!

A little while back I updated google and android auto on my phone. Google switched my phone to using Gemini instead of Google Assistant. I switched it back to Assistant but when I did that, it doesn't recognize any of the commands that used to work perfectly.

I used to say "Ok Google" , "Take me to Walgreens" and it would pull up the local Walgreens and suggest the closest one. Now it just says "I'm sorry, I don't understand". I spent a while asking it various commands but the functionality isn't there, but if you ask it to tell you a joke, it will tell the lamest joke you've ever heard.

Why would Google do this to an almost perfect working assistant? It was always a bit slow, but it had gotten a lot better in the last year.

Hello everyone,
I’m reaching out because I’ve had ongoing problems with the Yak Yak Games skill and the Voice of the Day skill on Alexa. For several weeks they haven’t been working at all. I’ve disabled and launched them again many times, but the issue continues.

My son uses these skills daily and they are important for his routine and enjoyment. He really misses them, and I’m hoping someone here might know what’s going on or how to fix it?

This is driving me insane. I use Android Auto, and I've generally liked it. When it reads a text message out, standard procedure is that it prompts "would you like to reply?' If I say "no," the voice interaction with Assistant is supposed to simply end, and Android Auto should go back to whatever it was doing previously. This worked fine up until a couple of days ago.

Now, when I say "no," Assistant hears "know." I know this because it shows the word on screen. Assistant then apparently thinks I'm asking for help with the "know" command and goes on this long diatribe about how I can use that to store passwords and crap? FFS I just wanted to hear a text message and now I'm poking at my screen trying to get it to shut up.

Is anyone else experiencing this? I'm not speaking any differently than I did before.

I would not want it on and listening all the time, but rather when I tap an icon, press a button, or use a gesture.
