One of Android Oreo’s best features is Picture-in-Picture mode for phones and tablets. When you press the home button while playing media (on an app that supports PiP), the video collapses to a floating window that you can move around the screen.

Android Auto continues to arrive in more vehicles, this time in India via Tata Motors. According to Google, the 2017 Tata Nexon is now part of the growing repertoire of Auto-compatible… autos.
Being India’s largest car manufacturer, Tata is an interesting case study from a business standpoint (I actually had to do one on this company) — and it makes some nice-looking vehicles to boot. Seeing such a large player in that part of the world with Android Auto is good news for the platform, even though it seems to have stagnated recently.

It seems like Allo is slowing down a bit as the updates are no longer packed with an assortment of new features on each release. Instead, we’re starting to see more things that spend some time in the teardowns before going live. An examination of toda…
File this one under things finally working as described.
If you’ve ever mashed that “Check for update” button in your phone settings because you were waiting and ready for an update, you know disappointment. You might be disappointed less in the future, as the button now actually checks for an update when asks rather than check to see if you were slotted in to be updated that day.
Long-time Android developer and new master of update buttons Elliot Hughes took to Google+ today to explain the changes.
When a device checks in because you’ve specifically asked it to, we flag that this is user-initiated and so you’re not subject to the usual limitations. So even if we’re at 1% rollout and 1% of users already have the update, if you manually check you’ll still be offered it, even though a background check at the same time wouldn’t.
You’ll need the latest version of Google Play Services, and it appears that this feature may be for Oreo and higher based on comments. We’ve reached out…
The iPhone X and Essential Phone both have a notch at the top to accommodate the front camera and bezel-less display. Is this design compromise acceptable or not?(This is a preview – click here to read the entire entry.)
It’s rare that new smartphone makers arrive on the scene to launch a phone without even so much as a Kickstarter campaign. Of course, they don’t all have Andy Rubin at the helm. Essential released its first phone a few weeks ago as an unlocked device …
The LG V30 and Samsung Galaxy Note 8 are two of the biggest new Android flagships right now. Both offer beautiful designs, high-end specs and unique dual camera technologies. They’re not exactly direct competitors though — if nothing else, there’s a big price and size gap between them. The V30 is expected to retail a couple hundred U.S. dollars below the Note 8’s lofty price point.
Still, they’re both significant launches in the Android calendar from two companies with a well-established rivalry. And that means it’s time for them to go head-to-head! Before we begin, note that the V30 we’ve been using so far isn’t final hardware just yet, so we’re going broad strokes in this first comparison — remember that things can change between a pre-production phone like I’ve been using, and the final, retail boxed version.
With that out of the way, hit the video above to find out how I’ve been getting to grips with the LG V30 and Samsung Galaxy Note 8 over the past cou…
Transport for London announced today that it would not be renewing Uber’s license to operate, citing Uber’s current policies regarding safety and security as grounds for the decision.
According to a statement released by TfL, Uber’s license will expire on September 30. However, Uber has 21 days to appeal this decision in Britains courts, and will be allowed to continue to operate while any appeals remain ongoing. The full list of reasons TfL gave for terminating Uber’s license included its approach to reporting serious criminal offenses (such as sexual abuse) and its use of software (internally referred to as “greyball”) that is capable of blocking law enforcement officials from gaining full access to the app.
General Manager of Uber London, Tom Elvidge, released his own statement in response to TfL saying approximately 3.5 million passengers and 40,000 drivers in the city use the app at least once every three months, and that those dedicated patrons would be “astounded” at the dec…
Samsung has launched the Geat Fit2 Pro, so the Gear Fit2 is officially yesterday’s news. It’s not terribly different from the new version, though, and it’s heavily discounted on Verizon today. You can pick up the Gear Fit2 for $89.99, which is half of…
