Nice app, but once you change the default google assistant voice you can't get it back,I even cleared app data ,still no change,devs trying showing a list of voices, especially the default google voice, and add voice match, thanks

The worst. Does NOT give requested information. While using voice, my request is cut off mid sentence. While phone sitting on my desk, untouched, suddenly asks me to repeat request. I disabled Google Assistant Go ( perfect: Gag!) yet if attempt to shut off phone, the GAG comes on. NOT a convenience. Should be able to uninstall instead of disable. META AI NEEDS TO GO!
