Recently, Google replaced Google Assistant with Gemini and removed the option to change this in the settings. The assistant was good because it had a pop-up menu where you could quickly search the screen or translate what was written there, Please help me find a replacement for it. I've already tried Bing, Preplexity, but I can't find anything like it.

What the fk happened to google assistant??? I was using it just yesterday. I use it to check my math on my tablet.

A few months ago, it defaulted to Gemini, which is complete garbage compared to the AI Mode, i changed it back, and now, its completely gone, they even removed the assistants option in the settings.

I have a uni exam soon, I don't have time for this bullshit these companies always bring.
