Location-aware reminders is almost literally all I want from an assistant these days. “Remind me of x next time I’m at y, or by z time at the latest.” Is this an impossible task? I can imagine how I would code it, but maybe I’m missing something.
I think they just haven’t figured out how to monetize it, really. I agree that it’s totally codable. I could do it with tasker if it were my job, IE, I was paid to and had 8h a day to do it.
Where’s the monetization in alarms, though? Or time-based reminders? Surely those are no more lucrative than what I’m asking for, yet they’ve existed for years.
We saw a glimpse of some great mobile awareness in Cortana. Contacts and location reminders were amazing on windows phones.
“Next time I talk to my wife, remind me to ask bout the dogs medication.” Phone call, text, or email, I’d get a reminder.
“Next time I’m at the store, remind me to buy bread.” “Which store?” “Any grocery store.”
Phone assistants have basically been going down hill since windows 10.
