Word got out today that Google has planned to remove location-based reminders from the assistant
Yes, the news arrives that Google it will get rid of a seemingly forgotten feature, namely location-based reminders. Google (for more information on the company click here) in fact gave very bad news to the “forgetful” user. This is because it is almost certain that it will remove location-based reminders soon.
The company didn’t make a public announcement, but some eagle-eyed users noticed the change in the Google Assistant Help. For those who don’t know or don’t remember, you’ve been able to create reminders for yourself based on a location. For example, you could set up a reminder to buy some milk at the grocery store. Self the Google Assistant on your phone detects that you are passing in front of a market, it will let you know.
It is not known why Google is doing this, nor do we know exactly when this feature will be removed. The one thing that Google has said in its help page on the subject is that you can still create time-based reminders or create one routine for those positions.
Google speculates that this could be related to a feature “Memory“Potentially new for Assistant. This would allow the service to save files, locations, movies and more still. They claim this is part of a “spring cleanup” and that Google is getting rid of features old and unwanted so that it can bring something new. People on the subreddit Android claim that Google is sending notifications informing users of its next change.
Speaking of users, their reaction was a mixture of negativity and confusion. Judging from that post on Redditsome people are disappointed that location based reminders are removed while others have completely forgotten the presence of this feature.
