Apparently, Google has been developing a new feature on YouTube called Playables. As the name suggests, there will be a new section on the YouTube app to let you play games on it. At the moment, the beta version is rolling out to select users but here's what it looks like. 

Having features added to platforms isn't anything new. But if there's a domain that many are wary of, it would have to be artificial intelligence (AI). In YouTube's case, the company is allegedly working on new features for AI-generated audio tracks.

It was only recently that Nothing announced a new way for Android users to chat with iPhone users via Nothing Chats. Although this is only available on the Nothing Phone (2) in selected regions, this is the first time that an Android brand did it. But in a surprise turn of events, Apple announced that it will support RCS (Rich Communication Services) next year. 

Looks like the future of technology is about to get more interesting. Recently, Google launched two new Titan Security Keys. That said, what should you know about it?

If you frequently use Google Meet for your meetings, this update might please you. Recently, Google announced a new On-the-Go mode for Google Meet. That said, what should you know about it?

Google is at it again. The company has just raised the YouTube Premium subscription in seven countries - Argentina, Australia, Austria, Chile, Germany, Poland, and Turkey. Thankfully, Malaysia was spared but we also recently got one a few months ago so there was no need to. 

Google Photos, the company’s photo backup and sharing platform is introducing a new feature to the app. Already rolling out to select users, the service now allows you to back up RAW images instead of just the usual image formats.

With many apps roaming on the Play Store, it can be hard to separate the safe and dodgy ones at times. Thankfully, Google will launch a new feature to remedy this issue. That said, what should you know about the Google Play Protect?

The Google Camera app has been renamed to “Pixel Camera” on the Google Play Store by Google, putting further emphasis on the Pixel branding. The app, which is exclusive to Pixel devices, has now changed its name across the lineup and will automatically change on Pixel devices once it is updated to Android 14.

The Google Pixel 8 series was launched earlier this week and its most noteworthy feature has got to be the promise of 7 years of software updates. This makes the Pixel 8 series overtake Samsung, which is offering 5 years of security updates to its flagship smartphones, something that the South Korean tech giant may be looking to remedy.
