androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-09-08 12:46:55

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority TL;DR Google is working on an Android-wide “Handoff” feature for multi-device syncing. 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. Update, July 1, 2025 (04:46 AM ET): We’ve managed to enable the UI for the Handoff feature within Cross-device services. The feature is still a work in progress and doe

Samsung is cooking up a privacy and security powerhouse in One UI 8 (APK teardown)

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-09-08 13:30:25

Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung seems to be developing a new “Alert Center” in One UI 8 to notify users about sneaky apps, security risks, and aging account settings. Code strings describing “Alert Center” and its features were discovered in an internal One UI 8 build. It’s unclear when Samsung will launch the new security hub, but it should be available in your phone’s Settings when and if it goes live.

Hey, you know those politicians and captains of industry who tell us AI will be running the world in a few years’ time?

Aging-related inflammation is not universal across human populations
