I just recently learned about using the Home Assistant's Voice Assistant as the Digital Assistant option for Android phones. I had to try it right away but I noticed right away. When I use the digital assistant on my phone I almost always squeeze to trigger it. It's VERY convenient and I don't have to look at the phone because it has haptic feedback and I know when it starts to listen. Anyway, when I selected the Home Assistant option as my digital assistant app the active edge squeeze function stopped working.

I noticed when I choose the Google digital assistant, it has an additional option for "Active Edge" listed but the Home Assistant option removes this entry. I've take screenshots to show this capability.
