Android 16 is great, but changing this one setting makes it even better

androidauthority.com Unknown 2026-03-21 16:00:04

Google’s Android 16 update is now available for Pixels, and like many of you, I eagerly rushed to update my phone as soon as the new software was live. Even though Android 16 isn’t the most thrilling OS upgrade we’ve ever seen (the really big changes are coming in Android 16 QPR1), a new Android update is still exciting, no matter how small. Android 16 has been running wonderfully on my Pixel 9a so far. It’s not a drastic update, but it’s smooth, responsive, and the little tweaks here and there

Google warns Wear OS users to install their favorite legacy watch faces before 2026

After Google introduced Watch Face Format (WFF) in 2023, WFF and non-WFF watch faces coexisted. This only lasted for a short time, however, as Google eventually made WFF mandatory. Since then, the company has been gradually phasing out support for non-WFF watch faces on Wear OS . Google has now announced the next step it will take to get to full adoption of WFF.

Google surprisingly brings back Snapseed with major 3.0 update on iPhone

Google today surprisingly released a major 3.0 update for Snapseed that entirely redesigns the photo editing app on iPhone and iPad. Given the lack of major updates in several years, it seemed that Google abandoned Snapseed. Since the app worked locally and has no server-side component, it seemed like the company was happy to let the beloved editor linger. The last notable update to Snapseed for iOS was in 2021, with very minor updates in 2023 and 2024. Google today released version 3.0.0 of S

‘Sunshine’ and ‘Event Horizon’ Bring Deep-Space Madness to Gruesome Heights

Millions of miles from Earth, a spaceship receives a distress call—so its crew changes course to investigate. Disaster follows. That’s famously the set-up for Alien, but it’s used often in sci-fi stories, including 1997’s Event Horizon and 2007’s Sunshine. Sunshine’s been in the news since director Danny Boyle revealed he’d originally hoped it would kick off a trilogy; that never happened, because like Event Horizon, it flopped at the box office.

How to Protest Safely in the Age of Surveillance

If you insist on using biometric unlocking methods to have faster access to your devices, keep in mind that some phones have an emergency function to disable these types of locks. Hold the wake button and one of the volume buttons simultaneously on an iPhone, for instance, and it will lock itself and require a passcode to unlock rather than FaceID or TouchID, even if they’re enabled. Most devices also let you take photos or record video without unlocking them first, a good way to keep your phone
