The Google Maps app for Android has, for years now, had the same old voice input that’s slow and not as accurate as Google’s latest offerings. Finally that’s changing, as Google Maps is rolling out a new voice input experience powered by Google Assistant.
How does Google have 4 different Voice Input technologies for essentially the same product?!
The Gboard uses the new Speech Services. But Assistant uses a better thing… Which is slow at times. But there’s still many Google apps using the old shitty Speech utility. And then there’s YouTube. Goddamn.
