Is there a way to use this without it recording web browsing/search or location history? I don't care for it to be customized to me, just to answer general answers without my privacy being compromised.

Have tried the build.prop tweak to revert to Google On Tap but doesn't seem to be working.

Thanks

You can disable all data collection from Google, including the Google Assistant, using the following steps:

1) Go to Google My Activity by search myactivity on Google (sorry; it doesn't allow URLs)
2) Open the hamburger menu (three lines)
3) Click Activity controls
4) For each desired section, toggle the switch to the off position.


To delete any current data:

1) Go to Google My Activity by search myactivity on Google (sorry; it doesn't allow URLs)
2) Open the hamburger menu (three lines)
3) Click "Delete activity by"
4) For "Delete by date", click the dropdown box and select "All time"
5) Click the delete button at the bottom of the page.
