Please STAR THIS ISSUE https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/174344676 to let Google know you're affected by broken Assistant on Wear OS!

Hey, it's been likely over a year where I ...
- Can't send SMS via voice Assistant
- Can't interact with Assistant suggestions (e.g. list of nearby stores)
- Can't initiate navigation (directions) by voice
- Contextual Assistant suggestions like nearby places seem to be very inaccurate (as if my precise location not being used)

As for Google Hotword, I read an article where Google said they might fix, but there are many other issues that plague Wear OS's voice Assistant.

Anyone know if a fix is coming?

Let Google know about your issue here https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/172776291?pli=1
