My default Android assistant setup โ™ก Great app...would like added on the future the ability to add more than one custom search engine... and also the option to change the small icon that is close to the search field (left side) to an image that match the main image selected for the custom search. The icon for custom search on the left side is just a dashed circle. Very nice option to use your favorite search engine if your browser doesn't allows to change it.

Couldn't find anything to complain about although it could stand a modern day material you/dark mode theme based UI widget overhaul given it year 2024 and looks like it's UI hasn't been changed much since year 2020.

Great one. One thing, can it stop asking me to rate app every time I'm using an app?
