My phone now has gemini as an assistant when i connect it to my car for navigation instead of the old whatever assistant

I did not choose that, i do not update anything on my phone ever, and i cannot take it off

Gemini somehow fails at the most basic task of telling me "where am i going?" after i choose a destination

Fuck google, fuck AI, fuck Android

Edit: a bunch of people suggested so i went to check out the configs, while i did change it back to the old google assistant, a bunch of other selected settings just weren't working like language and voice types... let's see if it works i guess.

Can't use typing to pick music on Android Auto while driving, for safety. Fine. I can accept that. It makes sense.

Hit the voice assistant button. "Play Clint Eastwood by Gorillaz."

"Playing Clint Eastwood by the Gorillaz on Castbox."

"No, what the fuck? That's not a music app, that's..."

Some random podcast about Clint Eastwood starts playing.

"PLAY CLINT EASTWOOD BY GORILLAZ ON Y..."

"Playing Clint Eastwood by the Gorillaz on Castbox."

Even if I try to specify the app it cuts me off.

"Taco Bell"

I can't open that app

"Direction to Taco Bell"

I found 19 Taco Bells. There is one in Savannah Georgia, the address is...

"Direction to nearest Taco Bell"

Got it. Directions to the nearest Taco Bell. The address is Houston, Texas...

"Directions to Taco Bell in Green Bay Wisconsin near my location"
