International s7 edge here, I did a factory reset this morning and now I have the google app itself, but no Google voice search app, the one with the microphone. I've looked everywhere and can't find it. Anyone have any idea where it went? How to get it back? Anyone else experiencing this?

Microsoft's Live Search is supposed to work with voice recognition, but a moment after I start the app, that option disappears. Does anyone know why and how to fix it?
Thanks
So, I noticed there is no option to use google voice for the default voicemail option. Anyone know of a way to get around this? I hate it when a carrier cripples a device :/

Hello XDA,
For some reason, I cannot seem to make calls using the ok google function anymore. When i say "ok google call john", it will correctly bring up john and the progress indicator for starting the call moves across the screen and then it goes to a transition animation as if opening the dialer, and then goes back to the google now screen with the call progress bar again. I've tried clearing the cache and data for the phone app and have tried clearing cache and reinstalling the google app. Has anyone encountered this issue? It was fine on kitkat but seemed to start having issues after i updated to lollipop. Does anyone have any suggestions on how i can fix? Thank you.
So I found out the reason, it is because I use google voice as my default number and have the setting turned on to use google voice for all calls. So it seems to bug out when you use the "ok google call" command with google voice. Sent in a bug report to google. not sure if this is a google thing or a samsung thing that needs to be addressed! but in case anyone else has his problem, this is why!
Is anyone else having a problem using Google now to call your contacts? I used to be able to say "call Bob Jones mobile" and it would dial the number for me. It seems really broken on this phone. It works with a couple of my contacts, but fails with 90% of them. It's almost like it will only match (succeed) finding the contact if it is a really simple name (Mom). Otherwise it misspells the name and says it can't find the contact.
I still can't figure this out. Am I the only one having this issue?
I thought S voice did this? I didn't know Google now even did it lol

S Voice probably does... I've just always used Google Now for this. Hopefully this isn't Samsung's way of forcing you to use their stupid S Voice app instead of Google Now. I don't know how they'd even cripple Google Now like this though.
Anyone using Google lens on Google assistant ...I mean i enabled it on assistant but the Google voice settings option is greyed out or unavailay . Anyone experiencing this issue or is there any work around for this?
