The whole upgrade thing is stupid. For years I was able to tell my phone in the car: "Play this song on spotify" and it did it. Not any more. "Ok google! Set a timer for 20 minutes." -> "Sorry Bob, I don't have permission to do that". "Ok google, navigate home" -> "Navigating to Store@Home24!" (half a country away).

I agree. I wasn't smart but it was useful in certain cases. Now it's just lobotomized.

I am driving along, listening to a podcast. A notification pops up that my wife has texted me. I tap the notification. Google reads the message.

"Would you like to reply?"

"No."

10-20 seconds pass.

"Okay."

Podcast does not restart.
