Google now used to be so good. Integration between calendar, email and maps for appointments and travel plans was amazing and I don't even travel that much. But it just all worked and was legitimately helpful.
No one since has really sat down and tried to figure out ways to speed up or improve a typical users daily routine. They just build little isolated gimmicks that seem cool in an advert, but barely get used in reality.
I hate that everyone wants to build an ecosystem that locks you in and then doesn't even seem to deliver on the low hanging fruit that being in that ecosystem could accomplish.
