[ad_1] You’ll have to be ready for potential glitches when this is pre-release software. Microsoft has warned that older versions of some anti-cheat game software can produce crashes on this Windows build, for example. Don’t try this if you absolutely depend on a reliable PC. If that’s no obstacle, though, you no longer need third-party […]

Google gives its Android office apps a fresher, more consistent look
[ad_1] Google is making it easier to juggle its productivity apps on your phone. The internet giant has released updated versions of Docs, Sheets and Slides for Android with a refreshed visual design that doesn’t add any big features, but should provide an easier and more familiar experience. They all have more consistent controls, easier-to-read […]
Android 10 phones may have to hide third-party navigation gestures
[ad_1] Companies that want to keep Android Pie’s navigation gestures can do so for updates on existing devices, but it appears that new devices won’t have that fallback. We’ve asked Google for comment. If this is accurate, it puts some Android hardware creators in a tough position. Brands like Huawei, OnePlus and others frequently advertise […]
Hulu subscribers can finally download shows to watch offline
[ad_1] Among the shows you’ll be able to watch offline are Hulu Originals such as The Handmaid’s Tale, Shrill, Veronica Mars and The Act, as well as the likes of Family Guy, This is Us, How I Met Your Mother and ER. You can download 25 titles at a time across five devices. You’ll have […]
Early OnePlus 8 leak hints at hole-punch display and wireless charging
[ad_1] The leak doesn’t say much about the phone’s purported innards, but there would be one major and arguably overdue addition: wireless charging. OnePlus has skipped the technology so far in favor of its speedy wired solution, but competitive pressure might have forced its hand. It’s also reasonable to suspect that the 8 will have […]
Google’s Pixel 4 may invoke Assistant when you raise the phone
[ad_1] It’s not clear if this will be enabled by default, or how Google might prevent accidental Assistant use outside of requiring specific timing (will it inadvertently react to an ongoing conversation, for example?). The apparent leak also doesn’t indicate whether or not raise to talk would be available on launch. Other rumored Assistant features, […]
Instagram’s Threads is compelling, but kind of creepy
[ad_1] On the surface, Threads is essentially an extension of Instagram’s Close Friends feature for Stories, which was introduced in 2018. Close Friends, in case you’re not familiar with it, lets you share pictures, videos and message only with groups of people you’ve carefully selected. In fact, if you haven’t created a Close Friends list […]
Google found a serious Android flaw affecting Pixel, Samsung and Huawei phones
[ad_1] The exploit was discovered by Google’s Project Zero team, and its Threat Analysis Group believes it was used in real-world attacks by Israel’s NSO Group. That company has been implicated in the past in attacks on human rights and political activists. Google said that the zero-day is not as dangerous as others in the […]
‘PUBG Mobile’ will add characters and gear from ‘The Walking Dead’
[ad_1] The items will only be available until sometime in early 2020. You won’t want to waste much time picking up these items if you’re a TWD fan. It’s an interesting crossover, though, and an appropriate one when both franchises revolve around survivalists facing unrelenting hordes — it’s just that these hordes are still alive. […]
Twitter rolls out filter for potentially offensive DMs
[ad_1] The expansion comes as part of a wider effort to curb abuse that includes reply moderation. It won’t stop some of the worst offenders, such as those who intend to carry out threats whether or not you read their DMs. It should, however, give you a way to leave your message inbox open to […]
