Is it possible to disable the "Activate Google Now" reminder every time you use "Google Search Widget"?
Keep clicking on the Next button as if you are agreeing. Then you can choose 'No, Maybe Later` to opt out of google-now. When you perform a normal search under your previous searches/ suggested searches there is a link to &quot;Get Google Now&quot; again! You can click the big X beside it and it will not come back. However, some updates and reinstalling the search app may cause this to recur again, but the steps above will get rid of it.
