Going from iPhone 6 to Moto g7 Power - will I be happy?

I’m thinking about making the change from an iPhone 6 to a Moto g7 Power. I’m not too worried about the display quality or camera. Likewise, the various apps that I use - I’m sure they’ll be fine. My biggest concern is voice functionality. I use my phone for my mobile business, so I use these commands all the time...
“Directions to [contact name]” — Apple Maps often crashes on my way to my destination - especially if I don’t leave it running in the foreground.
“Remind me to call [name] when I leave here.”
“Create appointment [contact name] [date/time]” — Siri often borks this but I can say, “change the title” to fix it. Can I do that with an Android phone?
“Remind me to ______ when I get home”
“Create a new note in Evernote.” — I’ll use the new note to document the details of the service call I just finished. It would be great if I could say, “I’m not finished” or “add to note” - but I can’t do that now when Siri often cuts me off in mid-sentence (which happens a lot)

I also use voice commands to send text messages, hear text messages, and make phone calls. A couple things I can’t do now that I’d really like to be able to do are: 1) Say, “Call [name] on speaker” and 2) “Call [name] using Google Voice”. It would also be nice to be able to use voice commands to hear text messages and voicemails in Google Voice. Any chance there’s (much) better integration on an Android phone (since they’re both in the Google ecosystem)?

I also use a ton of keyboard shortcuts — I type in an abbreviation and it’s auto-replaced with a longer phrase. And I can add new ones fairly easily by telling Siri to “open keyboard settings”.

C@@L New Smartglasses w/ NO Creepy Cameras

DISCLAIMER: I have NO financial interest in this product; nor am I providing any affiliate link to get anything out of it. Nope - I'm simply a tech geek, early adopter and backer of this campaign... and I think it's a great concept for smartglasses with none of the creepy camera/spy stuff!

I showed this to the technologically-impaired Darling Bride, and even SHE wants a set of these!

Multiple accounts on Google mini/nest hub

What's the best way to setup Google mini speakers and Nest Hub when you have multiple users?

I think I've set them up to my Google account and have a custom routine for 'Good night' on the mini speaker. When I speak to it, it works fine, but if my wife talks to it, it plays the default.

Also I've noticed on the Hub, if I talk to it, it shows my profile icon but not if the wife talks to it. I'm not sure if I need to setup the voice match, add her as an account, or configure them both on a joint Google account that we have.

Why is my coverage so bad everywhere I go?

I live in Spring Hill, TN. I work in Franklin, TN. Both cities are pretty major cities. At home, I get two bars of signal. I usually can make phone calls, but rarely can I use data off of wifi. At my work, downtown Franklin, I get often no signal at all. A few days ago I was at a doctor and I didnt have my insurance card and was trying to get online to get my policy info and couldn't get online.

I recently upgraded from an LG V30 to a Samsung Note 10+. I've had this bad service on both phones, so the phone isnt the issue.

I am attaching what the open signal map shows as my coverage in my home area. Does anyone know why the map shows only small dots of coverage? Is it saying coverage is really spotty?

Android tablet Huaweii s7- restoration internal storage uninstalled accidentally

Android tablet Huaweii s7- restoration internal storage uninstalled accidentally
storage
I need help. I uninstalled accidentally the internal storage of my Huweii s7, Android 2.2.2 - Went to Options- Sd and tablet memory- and tapped on Uninstall internal SD. I lost all my data, apparently. Then tried to fix it by enabling the debug after connecting it to the PC and rebooting several time. It worked for a while, now it doesn't anymore. Is there a trick to solve this?

I need a way to reverse that process. Now there's no storage in my tablet, not only the internal, but I can't see the memory card. Tried to debug and reboot several times as before but nothing happened. I can't upload the picture of the screen, but In Options- sd and memory - is written:

Total space: Not available Available space: not available

Install SD card: Insert a Sd card to mount

Internal storage tablet Space available 1,39 MB

Thank you.

system optimizer

I usually have to do this daily, at least once - to go to System Optimizer to clean temporary files and cache etc. But it's strange that after using a little while, there's already over 100Mt junk... then I clean that, and going back sometimes just 1 minute after, and there's again around 100Mt!!! How's that possible!?

On the list of dirts, there's even stuff from Apps which I didn't even use!!!! Like Google Play Shop...
I thought I turned the background date off already from all the apps, but those are somehow still on, and I don't know how to switch all that off.

Help Forum Updates Support

With all the changes happening at the moment I thought it might be nice to have a place for anyone to report any issues they have found or would like to feedback any comments on the changes.

So with this in mind I spotted an issue in the New section where the Quick Jump format is broken. This only happens in mobile view, see attached screenshot:

I noticed screen shots to digital backgrounds..

So let us see your real artistic talent everyone :)

Here is my latest one, of Mr. Bat from Rusty Lake Hotel, I traced it off first, then with the idea of checking into each of the refrence I had on my p.c., around a few hours it took me on day one, and on day two was just touch ups here and there. What really over killed me was the whiskers on the bat's jawline.


So let me see your creative side :)
