I can't get back to the main page. I guess I'll just have to tell it to go
to google.com! What a laugh, and a pib too.

Deidre, 

Be aware that at least one new version of the Google app has been released
since Jonathan did his comparison with Siri piece. I'm running the latest
version like you and one of the first things I did was to sign on using my
Google account. Now, when I open the app, I'm still logged in with a button
in the top left of the screen with a thumbnail picture which I have on my
account. I guess this is like an account or profile button because when I
execute it, the settings page you are seeking opens. 

I don't know if that helps but maybe it will give you something else to try.


Good luck.
