19	5:43	This episode of All About Android is brought to you by Gabi Insurance. You’re probably overpaying on your car or home insurance. You know it! But you don’t have time to deal with it. What if there was technology that could help you find the absolute best deal out there! So, let me ask you this. How’d you like to keep an extra nine hundred and sixty-one dollars a year in your pocket? That’s how much Gabi customers save per year on average on car and home insurance. That’s why when I was shopping for insurance, I used Gabi. It made price comparison WAY easier than doing all the heavy lifting on my own. It was a cinch.	gabi.com/android		0:05:00
20	JH	Gabi takes the pain out of shopping for insurance by giving you an apples-to-apples comparison of your current coverage with 40 of the top insurance providers like: Progressive, Nationwide and Travelers. Just link your current insurance account and in most cases you will receive quotes in a few minutes for the exact same coverage you currently have. That’s what I did. If you want to move forward with one of the quotes, the insurance company you selected has to review all of your details and confirm the final price. At that time there may be adjustments based on any new info that wasn’t shared prior and you may need to speak with a Gabi agent. We were told that an average online quote takes you 1,100 keystrokes. Gabi gives you multiple quotes, that’s thousands of keystrokes! It saves you a tremendous amount of time!	http://twitads.azurewebsites.net/ads/adcopy.html?epid=20331&pos=1
21		Look. I got super curious. We've been with our insurance provider for more than ten years. I hopped on Gabi, was able to plug in all of my details so Gabi could go to work, do its price comparison magic. It took maybe 10 minutes tops? I was honestly surprised at how fast the whole process was. In the end, I was presented an option that wasn't quite the savings I've already locked in with my current provider. It as close, but Gabi confirmed that our current coverage is just fine. And you know what, Gabi was helpful even for knowing that hey, no need to shop around. We have a good deal! BUT... As I mentioned earlier, Gabi customers save nine hundred and sixty one dollars per year on average. So my results are an outlier compared to what you are likely to find... Leo saved $2,800 on his home insurance by switching to Gabi! And they’ll NEVER sell your info, so no annoying spam or robocalls!

43	JH	Yes, touchscreens are not the best idea for cars. I find them very distracting while trying to change anything. I have a Mazda and they must feel the same way. My new car does not have a touch screen. Instead it has a screen further forward on the dash so it's easier to see while looking at the road. All navigation of the system is done by a command center in the center console. Takes a little of getting used to but after a while I don't even need to look down to do anything. Hopefully more car manufacturers decide to take this route, I believe that BMW does it has well. Just wanted to throw that out there in case anyone was looking for a car that has a better solution. Glad I'm not the only one who does not prefer touch screens. Bill

45	RR	Ron, I agree that the voice feedback in Android Auto can be annoying. The simple fix is to mute the voice. This does require glancing at the screen at regular intervals, but it's easy to quickly spot the distance to the next turn. In 5+ years I've only missed an exit one time. Steve

48	FI	I wanted to hear what all of you thought about the horribly misleading game ads that you see for games on Google Play… Games that show a function of the game that isn’t even in the game like those problem solving games that you see ads for but when you get the actual game its some kind of bejeweled knock off. Why do you think these blatantly misleading ads are even allowed? Do you think its okay? Do you think it is wrong? Do you find it frustrating? Just curious to what all of you think? Daniel
