There is literally no other app I've used on my phone less than any sort of "assistant", AI or otherwise.

I can add my own calendar events and to-do notes, thank...you...very...much. I have thumbs. And I'm not self-important enough to feel like I just don't have the 30 seconds it takes to use them to set a reminder or a quick note.

Does that make me old-fashioned, sure. But I prefer it that way.

    Oh man, people who knows me would swear I could have written that comment. But truth be told I have two use cases for ga: hands free timers while cooking, and sending SMS messages while driving. Ok maybe three because setting a destination in google maps while driving is also pretty neat.

    Calendar and the rest, no thank you. I can do that perfectly fine manually.
