Why poo up

Im tired of AI being pushed down our throats. I’m not uploading my government ID to watch YouTube, I’m not taking a fkn selfie to watch YouTube and I’m SICK TO DEATH of google pushing their AI trash at every single turn.
I’m literate, I don’t need AI to read or think for me.

Wrong and deceiving news
Google keeps presenting news from unreliable sources.
Notification bug
Since your last release, every time I open the app, it opens the apps notifications screen in my iOS settings. It’s incredibly annoying
It’s junk
Was a good app like 15 years ago. Now it’s trash
Data shared with other businesses
too much AI, cannot turn off ads
Selective Censorship and Linguistic Bias: An Ecosystem Stuck in the Past.
"It is unacceptable that in 2026 despite all the processing power we boast, the ecosystem collapses when faced with the natural use of the Spanish language. I have repeatedly confirmed that the system applies automatic censorship to words fully accepted by the RAE (Royal Spanish Academy), treating them as offenses when they are merely part of a raw description of reality.
This 'fragile' sensitivity not only breaks the flow of deep analytical conversation but feels like a form of linguistic racism. By punishing original terms of our language under a foreign standard of political correctness, you are limiting the user's ability to express themselves honestly.
You can censor the words, but you cannot change the reality of the facts being communicated. If the goal is to create a useful tool for visionaries and analytical minds, stop muzzling the Spanish language and focus on making sure the system can handle a direct truth without breaking."

Attorney Avery goes above and beyond to do the best job. I enjoyed working with them very fair, professional, and always doing their best.
Take ads off phone screens after commercials are done dag
Take the ads off the screen once the commercials is are over !
Go
Safiri is better
Idk
I’m dumb
Biased responses
Typical American software that labels true facts antisemtic, and biased responses that are pro little hat people
Ai mode
When i ask it to help me prepare for an exam it just overwhelms me and confuses me chatgpt is way way WAY better
It stinks
It stinks so bad
Sucks
Bing is better
I hate it
Because of you guys changing the age rating, which millions of people and multiple of my friends use google more than anything and now they are blocked out of it which made it so much worse for da kids that actually wanna use it
OK app terrible account recovery
this is an OK app but when you don’t get access to your Google account, then when you try to put your password in Google is gonna say we can’t verify this account belongs to you stay away from this app
hate when it opens automatically and no control over it
I hate that it opens automatically each time and there is no way to stop it. I can no longer use regular google

INTERRUPCIÓN
MUCHO ANUNCIO A LA HORA DE VER LOS ENCAVEZADOS PRINCIPALES
Crashing and woah
Search is becoming more useless. Ai overview gives false info, shoved in your face with no way to stop it, and searching for images is a nightmare new. Even trying to find some fashion photos is complicated when almost every image they show is from a sale website or sponsored bs. I look up specific jfashion clothing and get ads for clothes worn my white ladies. I'm looking for inspo not to buy all the time. This is just sad. I'm angered with the state of how terrible everything is now. I used to love Google growing up but now it's low tier slop for the masses. Old review: Wow not sure what happened but the image search is why I used this app and now it no longer detects any of the images I’m trying to search with. I even used ones to at previously got results and nothing.
Googles ai
Hey google, guess who asked for the ai update, ABSOLUTELY NO ONE, THE POLAR BEARS ARE DYING, NO ONE LIKES THIS, SO WHY THE HECK IS IT HERE!?!?!? REMOVE IT NOW. I REMEMBER WHEN IT DIDN’ EXIST, AND THEN BOOM! IT’S HERE, NO ONE ASKED FOR THIS STUPID UPDATE, NO ONE LIKES IT, WE WOULD ALL ENJOY IF IT WAS REMOVED, DID YOU JUST GET LAZY? AI LIKE THIS IS RUINING BIG COMPANIES!!! (Except chatGPT, that was stupid ai slop at the start) NO ONE CARES ABOUT YOUR STUPID AI SLOP, THE DEVELOPER REPLY IS PROBABLY GONNA BE WRITTEN BY CHATGPT.
Used to be good now Awful!!
Just got an extra 1:15 minutes drive because Waze told me to go a way when I knew it was going to be traffic but I trusted they would update me and I was right and Waze was wrong! Wasted extra hour of my life. Because of Waze!!
Why so many updates?
Every three seconds there’s an update, from google. Unnecessary updates, that collects way more data than necessary.
Help
Can’t get proper help
Notifications Settings
Recently, I was asked to turn on notifications by the app. Yeah, no. Now, every time I try to do a search, my settings open to the Google notifications tab. Shady
Issues since update
Horrible issues after the update with my YouTube and google apps. They stop and circle then start later or just stop and close.Likely all apps are messy, but those two I just verified again tonight.
I had to Delete this App
This app redirects to the notifications center every time I open it. I had no choice but to remove it from my phone.
Ai searches by it self
Unwanted notifications & Ai self searches that I don’t need or relate to me.
STOP WITH X
OMG STOP FORCING X IN THE RESULTS!!!
garbage app
this app is unusable. ai slop built in. it collects data information to other companies, doesn’t even work at all. constantly crashes or reloads the site for no reason. Closing the app instantly refresh the entire app. I do not recommend. somehow safari works better.
Discover hard to read now
Recent update made it difficult to read discover tiles. They have no separation between them. Bad UX!
Ray
Why does this app keep crashing??? Very frustrating!!! Can’t even use it without it crashing
Inefficient when needing a quick search 🫤
Not a fan of ALWAYS having to use the app just to do basic functions that can be accomplished via the browser & it always needs to be updated. When needing a quick search, it takes minutes. Very inefficient and annoying and feels like a power grab.
Goofball
It’s sometimes make me mad, but sometimes it guesses right and makes me happy. Five stars.
