There are constant bugs with the side panel not showing your chats or the current chat timing out for no reason. Also, the mobile app has an issue if your text input is too long where the entire text entry box lags, even to the point of locking up the entire app. Openrouter’s web ui runs circles around all the frontier lab UIs. I even prefer their PWA to any of these mobile apps.

  • Ask HN: How to get rid of AI model? — After the google+ fiasco I thought Google had learned their lesson about ramming new products down people's throats whether they like them or not, but with AI modelit seems like this lesson has been forgotten.

  • Something I've noticed is that AI modelthrough AI model.google.com... — Something I've noticed is that AI modelthrough AI model.google.com or through the mobile apps is vastly inferior to AI modelthrough aistudio.google.com. Much worse handling of long contexts amongst other things. Very odd that a product that is free (AI Studio use is free), is much worse than the product I am paying 20 quid a month for. I find this to be especially true for the newer models like "AI model", so if you haven't tried AI Studio yet, I'd give that a go.

Limits and method

24

Limitations and open questions

Known constraints and missing evidence from the collected pages.

The collected pages focus on the Nano Banana 2 image generation feature and general assistant capabilities. Evidence gaps include: no detailed feature documentation for the broader assistant, no customer testimonials or case studies, no information on data export or performance, and no mention of competitors. The pricing page was not collected directly, but an authoritative summary was provided.

25

Sources, method, and limitations

Evidence inventory, collection method, provider use, and constraints.

This report is based on 6 collected pages from AI model.google.com, including the image generation overview, app download page, and main app page. The evidence catalog includes 27 items, with a mix of product descriptions, feature explanations, and trust signals. An external proof search was performed but no additional verification was collected. Limitations include incomplete coverage of the site (6 of 8 pages) and reliance on a provided pricing summary rather than the full pricing page.
