Now Brief and Bar - ZFOLD7 UI8, longer term thoughts

[Obsydian]

Not allot of use, initially I loved it but now it just weather thing, the health bits annoy me as I check SHEALTH daily anyway, it doesnt link my work email, calender or any non Ssmsung app except a but of YouTube.

So overtime is see it as another Bixby.

Now Bar, is better and useful, like it on my mobile and watch.

Anyone else any thoughts to share, as lots of people getting FoMo for it and I feel as always an anticlimax.

I don't have Now Brief but until it has extensive app support I can't see it being helpful to more power users TBH.

If your notes and reminders are in a 3rd party service ect like Notion or TickTick you have to check them separately anyway.

I do use Now Brief but the functionality is a bit limited,  I do quite like the  Health integration mind you  but News and Youtube shorts tend to leave a bit  to be desired.   Hopefully will improve in the future as intended with more third party support and  customisation.

Well at least now on One UI 8 beta 6 if your really lazy you can get it to read it out to you. 😂

I did like read out but it comes back to the same, only Samsung apps.

I agree it's mainly just stuff I could check myself. Weather, health, sleep and Spotify. The news don't even show now.

I link the curation into a summary, but its incomplete with more work calender, gym, social, etc apps
