Disabling google assistant broke various unrelated features.
What I just found out I can do above is change the "Assistant" default app from being "Google Assistant" to being none - which stops the stupid swipe in the wrong way and it grabs focus and the bottom half of the screen "feature".
Edit: And to be clear this doesn't remove all the places Assitant pops up, just the most annoying one. It still has prominent placement in the "system" settings for instance.
- brian_cloutier 6y agoAh, sorry, I should have been paying better attention.
- izacus 6y agoAre you sure you disabled Google Assistant (via one of two settings) and not the "Google" app which contains significantly more functionality than just the Assistant?
- gpm 6y agoUnderstand that I played with this a year ago, so my memory is a bit hazy. I believe that what happened was was after looking for any way to disable just assistant (e.g. under the "Assistant" system settings option) and not finding any I have up an tried to disable it at the app level. At the app level I saw (and still see) only a option to disable all of Google. It probably did not occur to me at the time to check the default app settings. > via one of two settings I only found the default apps way, what is the other?
