Spotify’s much hated ‘Create’ button could soon go away, if you want it to (APK teardown)

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-09-01 06:02:11

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR Spotify introduced a “Create” button in its app’s bottom navigation, but the move sparked widespread user backlash. Code within the latest app release suggests the company is listening to user feedback, as it could soon give users an option to hide the Create button. This opt-out toggle is not yet live, nor has Spotify officially confirmed it. Old habits die hard, and Spotify is learning this the hard way. The service introduced the “Create” button on it

By now, it’s well established that one of AI’s biggest accomplishments is to help Americans cheat at life. Students are using it to cheat on their homework, teachers are using it to cheat at grading homework, sad and horny men are using it to cheat themselves out of having a girlfriend, actors are using it to cheat at ethnic accents, and some lawyers are even using it to cheat on legal filings.

This feature will enable access to apps and media across your devices, and even sync notifications between them. Apple has a similar Continuity feature called Handoff, albeit without notification syncing. Last week, we spotted an in-development “App Cast” tool within Google Play Services.

Even if you enjoy cooking, waiting for a pot of water to boil is probably one of the things you'd rather not have to deal with. And yes, the more you watch it, the slower it boils -- that's just science. But did you know that some ways of heating a pot are quicker than others? They can be better for other reasons, too. Using an electric stove can take longer than you'd like, making a gas range the preferred choice -- not to mention they usually heat your pots and pans more evenly, too. And with

It took me a long time to appreciate Death Stranding. I’m not even sure I fully got it after my initial playthrough, which was equal parts mesmerizing and dull. The game, in which you play as a postapocalyptic delivery man in a world ravaged by a breach with the afterlife, demands a lot from players. The gameplay is fiddly and frustrating, and the storyline is often inscrutable, at times seeming to make no sense. While it borrows elements from walking sims and stealth games, there’s nothing like
