    Downloading at the moment, I'll give it a go for a day or two, longer if it's stable.

    On the multi screen view long press the app icon at the top

    Only bad thing I'm seeing so far is when you swipe up for the menu the app switcher starts first - makes the transition look a bit messy.

    I like the way the white haze is missing from lower down on the wallpapers thought - used to really annoy me.

    That LTE sign is big, even on the swipe down.

    Liking the sliding bar for multitasking, easy to use one handed.

    Battery seems fine so far.

    One of the cityscape wallpapers won't work (first one) - meh.

    Anyone else have a stand-alone Assistant app in their drawer now? I'm near sure it wasn't there until this evening.

    Screenshot?

    It was launched at Google I/o yesterday. Similar to the very top of the drawer being for your most frequent apps , this section is where the assistant is trying to guess what you will do based on previous activity etc. new concept! :)

    Ah right sorry, that could be downloaded for some time off the play store so they must be making it into the google apps package by default now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,086 ✭✭✭GustavoFring


    Not on my 2 XL with P.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 965 ✭✭✭1jcdub


    The assistant appeared in the app drawer after I restarted my phone
