Got 2 Android Hater's jelous of my Moto X - Specifically Motorola Assist

Motorola should Advertise the living daylights out of this feature.

Story? My friend texted me, phone read out loud, My girlfriend got jelous because her Samsung Galaxy S3 would'nt do that without turning another app on... I said "send text" to alert my friend that I was driving.. Bam i meet up with her, and she laughs and says she loves my assistant.. Confused asked what assistant.. "Motorola's silly... Wish Siri did that, can we switch!"

GREATest feature that should be advertised!

By far the best phone I've owned to date.

I love that feature, too. And when at home, the Motorola Connect is awesome, too.

Assist is definitely underrated. Since I would like to add an extra feature or two to do when driving, I've tried to find other methods for automatic driving detection to trigger these events since Assist doesn't provide any Tasker plugins. My brief experiments show that the Assist auto driving detection is top notch. I haven't been able to replicate it yet. Other methods are either too slow to detect, too slow to turn off, or toggle back and forth while actually driving. I appreciate the smarts that are embedded in that app each and every time I use it.

As a guy who spends 1.5-2 hours/day in the car, the Assist feature (and touchless controls) was one of the biggest selling points of the X for me, and it has totally fulfilled all of my expectations.
