Agreed, but I find for even these simple tasks it's hit-and-miss for accuracy. My Google device will randomly not know what a "shopping list" is, or the interactions go something like this:

"Hey Google, put dishwasher salt on the shopping list" "OK, I added 'put dishwasher salt'" (strangely, this particular bug only manifests for dishwasher salt).

Timers are useful, but sometimes they can't be shut off by voice command.

Yeah it doesn't always work well. I say "hey siri add green milk to the shopping list". I want "green milk" added to the shopping list which in the UK is semi-skimmed milk. What does it do? Adds "green" and "milk" because it thinks I'm a weed smoker...
