Even default android has such settings. I can view what song I'm listening to, take new photos and theoretically take short notes(haven't figured out how it works) and that's it. Also since I disabled the Google assistant, they can't do anything with it too.
Ah that's cool. Had no idea you could disable google assistant without doing some weird stuff with your phone.
I disabled the speech detection and the button underneath my volume control. If I tap my home button for to long it still activates, but I don't use it.
