This seems really well put together, but I can't help but wonder how long until it gets a takedown notice from Google?

Using Google in the domain name alone is enough for it to be taken down.

Really useful. I have to say I'm not a fan of the bizarro dual scroll-bar shenanigans going on though.

I've done similar with my Django stack - used way more code than needed for something simple. The reason is - if you've got a good boilerplate it's quicker and easier to use it than to start again - even if you don't need half the pieces.

Is anybody else having trouble using Ok Google for sending texts? It recognizes the recipient alright but stops dictation way too early, even if I pause just for a second. Then it doesn't seem possible to resume dictation. Does anybody know how to get around this? (Android 5.1.1)

Why this confusing UI (click to do what actually?) for the simple info that is there?

Or am I missing something interesting by using Firefox?

It's not a static list, though: mouse over or click on the entries.

Somehow it boggles my mind this is not provided by Google by default. I am pretty sure plenty of people are missing tons of features because they don't know it exists. I don't think trying everything (with some latency) until you got some good answer is a nice way to discover/explore.

"Ok Google!", "What can I say?"
