About this app

Action Blocks makes routine actions easier with customizable buttons on your Android home screen.

Powered by the Google Assistant, you can easily set up Action Blocks for a loved one. Action Blocks can be configured to do anything the Assistant can do, in just one tap: call a friend, watch your favorite show, control the lights, and more.

Action Blocks can also be configured to speak phrases. This can be especially useful to people with speech and language disorders to quickly communicate during urgent situations.

Built with the growing number of people with age-related conditions and cognitive differences in mind, Action Blocks can also be used for people with learning differences, or even for adults who want a very simple way to access routine actions on their phones. Set it up for your family, friends, or for yourself.Action Blocks now features tens of thousands of picture communication symbols (PCS® by Tobii Dynavox), providing a seamless visual experience for users of augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) devices and special education software.

Action Blocks may also be useful for anyone who could benefit from an easier way to perform routine actions on their device, including individuals with dementia, aphasia, speech disorder, autism, spinal cord injury, traumatic brain injury, Down syndrome, Parkinson's disease, essential tremor, dexterity impairments, or other conditions. People who use adaptive switches, Switch Access, or Voice Access may also benefit.

Action Blocks includes an Accessibility Service, and uses that capability to enable you to connect a switch. If you don't want to connect a switch, it works fine without enabling the service.

Everything I try, "open Google keep", "open notifications", and even the stock, suggested actions: "tell me the time", "what is the weather today in Omaha", " display my emergency contact information", "adjust lights to bedtime mode", every single one of them just gives a toast pop up that says "Gemini doesn't support this feature". Completely and totally useless.

Another app broke because of Gemini. Should I stop using Google's apps until you integrate your AI updates properly I've been working on automation, but you keep breaking it, and I have to start over. I have a ticket over a month old not complete. Go ahead, make users pay for products that don't work. This company offers poor support, buggy updates, and treats customers like lab rats, forced to pay for their services to fix their failures. The spell check wouldn't check this negative review...

please simplify this. just updated today. totally regretted. there's now an alert popup. I'm using this for my mom who has dementia and finds it hard to operate tech. stop making things with more popups or more presses to accomplish things. also remove Gemini and stop making things require bloat. anyone knows how to roll back updates? Googled and the rollback option isn't available on my phone. stop it. just stop making useful things and spoiling it with complexity.
