Does anyone know why they did this? The great write up by Abner on <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;9to5google.com&#x2F;2022&#x2F;03&#x2F;04&#x2F;assistant-snapshot-google-now-radical-vision&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;9to5google.com&#x2F;2022&#x2F;03&#x2F;04&#x2F;assistant-snapshot-google-...</a> really makes you think. Google now snapshot is probably the only service model platform we are all familiar with!<p>&quot;&quot;It’s not clear whether end users even want an interface&#x2F;experience that isn’t a grid of icons. People are already familiar with the concept of opening an app to accomplish a particular, often solitary, task. Tapping a logo and knowing what you’re in for is dead simple and now the universally ingrained way to use a mobile computer, i.e. “There’s an app for that.”&quot;&quot;&quot;
