Google Assistant app now uses your searches to make personalized recommendations [Sarah Perez @ TechCrunch]

Google is revamping its two-year old “Snapshot” feature in Google Assistant for iOS and Android. The company in 2018 had first introduced Google Assistant Snapshot as a way for mobile users to stay on top of their day, by showing timely information like appointments, reminders, commute times, stocks, packages in transit and more. Today, the company is rolling out a series of updates to make the feature more useful and personalized. This includes the addition of tasks, push notifications for birthdays and even suggestions of other things Google thinks you’ll want to try, like podcasts, restaurants, recipes and more.
