Doesn't work with screen off The normal Google now comes up with screen off, but the specified tasker commands don't work, it says "I'm not sure how to help with that."
★★★★★
Needs an action to trigger a voice recognition process on the watch, isolated to just that task. Basically I'm trying to make a parrot to mess with people
★★★★★
Great app! Even better than I expected. Just one question: how can I use a language other than my preferred language for recognition? Your application can only use the primary (and not other secondary languages installed on the phone) phone language for speech recognition. Is there a way to select another language? Thanks a lot !
★★★★★
Awesome app. I moved from my Note 4 to Nexus 6P and works great with tasker. 5* support from the developer too.
★★☆☆☆
Dev rude to customers If your review is not good, dev is likely to get irritated and snap back with a rude reply. This seems pretty consistent with most of the unfavorable reviews.
★★☆☆☆
It was my go-to before author got greedy. Now he wants me to pay again every month for functionality I already paid for. Never. Use Autovoice, use Shortcuts to avoid extra verbage. It is faster and more customizable anyway. I was already having to use shortcuts with Tasker Now to shut up google before Tasker Now dismissed it anyway. Edit: Pixel XL here, so for us Google Now is not an option, Google Assistant or nothing. Considering I paid for the functionality to work with Google Assistant once, months ago, why would I pay it again every month after it was disabled in what I already pay for, when I can use a competing utility I already own? Suit yourselves, but I'm not buying into the subscription model for this or any other app. And I'm a developer, so I understand the economics of it. Edit: fair enough, a refund would be fine
★★☆☆☆
Does not work with pebble time The first notification works, then after that, the pebble time does not see any notifications. It seems pebble time ignores identical notifications - maybe add a feature that puts a timestamp on the notification. If this is fixed, gets 5 stars.
