Yesterday Google outlined the changes it will make to comply with the EU’s Digital Markets Act (DMA) that goes into effect starting today. One important detail it left out, however, was whether it would charge developers who directed users outside the Play Store to sideload apps — and if so, how much. Now, Google has revealed that it will indeed charge developers even if they don’t use the Play Store, just like Apple did with the App Store. Per new details found in the Play Console help… Source link

Once upon a time, believe it or not, no one particularly looked forward to Super Bowl ads. That all changed when Washington faced Los Angeles on Jan. 22, 1984, in Tampa, Fla. Those who tuned in to the big game on CBS — and hadn’t fled to the kitchen for snacks — may have been intrigued by something completely different. In between ads for Gillette Foamy Gel and Northwestern Mutual insurance, a dystopian scene appeared on their TV sets: A line of men wearing faded gray apparel marched… Source link

Three of the biggest players in Android hardware have turned their sights on XR. Screenshot by ZDNET/Samsung While the world waits for Apple to finally tear off the band-aid and let us know what mixed/virtual/augmented reality device it’s been working on all of these years, Samsung took the opportunity during its 2023 Unpacked event to tease something very slightly more concrete.  The device maker brought executives onstage from Qualcomm, which has produced chipsets like the Snapdragon… Source link

It was only a matter of time until Google launched its own location tracker, similar to Apple’s AirTags, Samsung’s SmartTag, and of course, Tile. According to the developer (and well-sourced leaker) Kuba Wojciechowski, Google’s Nest team is developing a tracker codenamed “Grogu.” It’ll reportedly include an onboard speaker, as well as support for Bluetooth Low Energy and ultra-wideband (UWB). Wojciechowski found evidence of the tracker when he noticed that Google added support for locator… Source link

If you’re the least bit familiar with the convenience and ease of use of Tile devices and Apple AirTags, you’ve probably wondered at one point or another why Google never expressed a formal intention or informal interest in joining this market. After all, even Samsung has its own line of Galaxy SmartTags that are, well, extremely similar to the more popular aforementioned trackers. At long last, a (credible) rumor of precisely such a product being in the Mountain View… Source link

Codenamed ‘Grogu’, the tracker would tap into a new Finder Network When we’re talking smartphone ecosystems, everyone’s quick to compare Google Pixel phones against Apple and its iPhones, but what about their accessories? Apple and Google alike sell plenty of stuff like earbuds and smart speakers, and back in 2021 Apple scored a surprise hit with the introduction of its AirTag trackers. Now a new rumor taps into some fresh evidence to suggest that Google could… Source link
