Google’s AI assistants, including Gemini, are currently experiencing issues with their reminder setting feature. Users are no longer able to create reminders without specifying a time, which was previously possible. While you can still manually create reminders without a time, the problem arises when using AI assistants like Google Assistant.
Google has been gradually pushing Gemini as a potential replacement for Google Assistant, allowing users to set Gemini as their default assistant. However, the reminder setting feature on Gemini seems to have hit a snag, as highlighted by technology expert Artem Russakovskii on Twitter. Both Gemini and Google Assistant now require users to specify a time when creating reminders, eliminating the convenience of setting tasks without a specific time or date.
Previously, users could ask Google Assistant to remind them of something without needing to set a specific time or date, making it easy to keep track of tasks without setting up reminder alerts. This change may be frustrating for users who relied on this feature for managing their to-do lists. While manual reminders without a time are still possible in Google Tasks, the issue persists when using Google Assistants to create tasks.
It is unclear whether this change is temporary or a permanent shift in how Gemini and Google Assistant handle reminders.
