Doesn't work with Gemini. I used action blocks a lot, and it was very, very useful. But once I switched to Gemini instead of Google Assistant (it doesn't even let me use the Gemini app unless I switch my entire phone to Gemini), my action blocks resulted in "Sorry, I don't understand" until I switched back to Google Assistant.

I set up Action Blocks for my mom after her stroke, and it’s made a real difference. The large, customizable buttons let her call me or start her favorite playlist with one tap, no frustration. The picture symbols are clear and easy for her to recognize, and it works smoothly with Google Assistant routines. It feels simple and respectful, not clinical. For anyone needing an easier way to use their phone, this app is thoughtful and genuinely helpful.

After spending more time with Action Blocks, I’ve come to appreciate how much it streamlines daily routines. The app not only makes it easy to build big, customizable shortcut buttons for frequent tasks, but it also helps cut down on the hassle of navigating menus or repeating voice commands. I’ve created blocks for calling favorite contacts, launching navigation to common destinations, and managing smart home devices, all with just a tap. Love it!

Action Blocks made me realize something very grueling. It is designed by a dirty old man. This is an older man who is interested in younger women sexually. The person who designed the app designed to lure in younger women with sexual comments and questions. The dirty old man who designed the app is in his 60s. The younger women are in their 20s. If the women are transgender, in relationships or have children, they are left alone.

Update: it doesn't work anymore! About time! Been looking for this for a long time. Works perfectly with Google Assistant Commands. I use it like on/ off switches to activate verbal Assistant Commands like "Turn off the Lights" and Custom Routines to control multiple actions with a single block. Only wish for more selection of icons. Maybe icon suites would be useful. Just a thought.

Doesn't work with Gemini at all. Google... when are you going to make this work with Gemini?
