Hope so. I got a chance to poke around. I don't use many of the apps on my phone, but I like to know at least a little about them. :/

Gemini is supposed to be slanted toward using AI and is more in-depth (probably why it tells you the story of your life)
Google assistant is for more general information. I found a You Tube video that shows you how to activate the Google maps voice instructions. I have an android, and recently had an update. I think updates can change your settings, so maybe that's why it wasn't working.
