Google has replaced the Google Assistant app on Android with Gemini by default (www.androidauthority.com)

This means:

Downloading or updating the Assistant app now gives you Gemini instead.
You can switch back to Assistant in the Gemini app settings.
This might be Google's first step towards replacing Assistant completely with Gemini.
Some users are unaware of the switch and see two Gemini apps on their phones.

Overall, this may suggest Google is phasing out Assistant and transitioning users to the newer Gemini AI technology.

And I still try to figure out how to enable it. I just want to try it out so I can decide whether I like it or not, but so far it hasn't shown up for me...

On my samsung N20U when I use assistant for the past week it will sometimes pop up on screen asking if I'd like to try swapping to gemini. It only stays up a few seconds before going away.
