Text selection on Google assistant - Android General

Hi guys, just updated my phone to 7.1.1 and I noticed (and researched the Web) that Google replaced on tap with Google assistant and dumped the text selection, it was one of my favorite features and used it a lot, anyone knows if they are planning to add this feature to assistant?

[Q] Is anyone using the CM Google Voice integration (Voice+)?

It was recently announced that Voice+ was going to be integrated into Cyanogenmod 10.1, which would allow you to send Google Voice texts with the default system SMS app. (Link to the article.)
I'm really curious to try this because the Google Voice app has felt really buggy to me lately. I've tried searching for ROMs that have this feature, but haven't been able to find it.
Has anyone here been able to use Voice+ or any other similar service for Google Voice? If so, how can I install it? How has your experience been?
I think I've figured it out. Voice+ wasn't appearing until I installed the official Google Voice app. Please disregard.

Merging all 'Google Voice' searches in Recent apps

Hello. When looking at my recent apps, I have a ton of Google voice searches. Does anyone know how to merge them into one (like work chrome and its tabs). I've looked around but have had no luck.
Thanks in advance.

Biadu Assistant App

Hello. I found that Baidu has also an Assistant like Google has. I think is called Du.
The interesting part is that is has the option to take a photo and the assistant it search automatically on internet for that photos just like google assistant in Pixel xl.

Google Assistant now uses 2 voices at the same time... how can I change this?

Im a UK Pixel 2 XL user and having trouble switching Google Assistant "fully" to the US voice. I stress the word "fully." Despite switching languages to "English US" in General Settings and Google Assistant settings, Google Assistant fails to fully use the US voice. It replies in the US voice for certain responses including web searches but for when it comes to local weather updates it sticks with the default British voice. I never had this issue with the Nexus phones. Any idea? Thanks!

Just joined Google Fi. Is there any way to add "messages" to the google apps button?

Just joined Google Fi. Is there any way to add "messages" to the google apps button?
Title says it all. I just left Google Voice for Google Fi and ported my GV number over.
Minor thing, but I miss having the function in gmail when I click on the google apps, then google voice, then it launches to web interface. I can't seem to find a similar setup for the messages for web app. Does this exist?
I realize I'm just lazy, but would be nice to have!
