Interesting. I wonder if this will evolve into something closer to Codex or Claude Code, where it can actually work across files and tasks on your computer, not just act as a desktop chatbot.
i was looking for this comment. raises question how managements work at big tech. why didn't they release in first hand along with androud and ios apps, only long-standing apps are the one that started before generative ai stepped. whats the vision here?
The Spark feature's UI isn't as good as the others.

Did Google do something special to block Windows on ARM?

Google apps don't evolve, they fragment and then die. I'd give this one a year or two at most.
They already have antigravity for that, I can see these two getting merged sometime in the future.
And will be EoL'ed in...one, two years?

Why is it frustrating? I use it on MacOS every day, it's quite fine for me.
I have not used the windows app, but the android one works just fine. Same as chatgpt.
