Galaxy Watch users might want to stay away from testing QPR1 betas

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR Galaxy Watch owners are reporting problems when using Samsung’s wearables with Android 16 QPR1 beta releases. Issues include failure to pair, connections dropping, and Samsung apps repeatedly crashing. For the moment, the only permanent solution seems to be going back to Android 16 stable. Getting early access to in-development software can be a lot of fun. Plenty of us participate in testing programs for some of our favorite apps, both in the interest o

Signs of Autism Could Be Encoded in the Way You Walk

Autism is a neurodevelopmental condition that affects how people's brains develop and function, impacting behaviour, communication and socialising. It can also involve differences in the way you move and walk – known as your gait. Having an "odd gait" is now listed in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders as a supporting diagnostic feature of autism. What does this look like? The most noticeable gait differences among autistic people are: toe-walking, walking on the balls

Pixel 10 Will Likely Star at the Next Made by Google Event on Aug. 20

The next Made by Google event is coming on Aug. 20, where it's highly likely that the company will reveal its Pixel 10 series of phones. The announcement arrived from Google Wednesday, with a press release and invites for an event in New York. The event, like previous Made By Google briefings that have taken place in the late summer or fall, is likely to focus on Google's Pixel phones, watches, earbuds and potentially more. It's uncertain what other devices Google might show off during the even

The best emulation frontend just added native Android game and app support

Nick Fernandez / Android Authority TL;DR ES-DE Frontend just launched version 3.3.0, with native Android game and app support. Previously workarounds required a separate file and a few extra steps. The update also added support for new emulators and four additional languages. When it comes to retro emulators on Android, organizing your files and emulators can be a nightmare. Even with a properly formatted microSD card stacked with your legally-ripped ROMs, it’s still a pain to browse your ga

‘I Know What You Did Last Summer’ Cleverly Hooks a New Generation

The new I Know What You Did Last Summer offers a bold, refreshing take on horror requels that’s a worthy successor to the original film. While stars of the 1997 film Jennifer Love Hewitt and Freddie Prinze Jr. reprise their roles as Julie James and Ray Bronson, it’s a relief that they are not the parents of any of the new gang of accidental murderers. This isn’t just I Know What You Did: The Next Generation, and the fact that it isn’t speaks to the new film’s desire to do something more than jus

Will your car get CarPlay Ultra? Here’s what we know

Earlier this year, Apple officially announced CarPlay Ultra, the next-generation version of CarPlay that it first teased way back at WWDC 2022. CarPlay Ultra began rolling out in May to Aston Martin owners in the United States and Canada. What about other automakers? Here’s what we know. Next-gen CarPlay brands In December 2023, Apple said that Porsche and Aston Martin would be the first automakers to support next-generation CarPlay starting in 2024. That deadline came and went, and Apple con

The Samsung tablet I recommend most isn't the newest (but it is on sale)

Here’s Your First Tiny Look at ‘Supergirl’

Hot off the heels of the blockbuster success of Superman, DC Studios is ready to introduce us to another child of Krypton already. After tiny teases throughout its production, we have our first proper look at Milly Alcock’s Supergirl. Well, “proper.” Of course, this new poster from James Gunn for Supergirl (like Superman before it, the film was previously subtitled Woman of Tomorrow for the comic series its story is heavily drawn from, before getting a shorter name), doesn’t give us a complete

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 Review: Foldable Perfection That’s Tempting Me to Leave My iPhone

2025 Disregard the fact that there’s a whole world of Chinese-made book-style foldables as thin and light as the Galaxy Z Fold 7 that Americans can’t buy, and Samsung’s latest phone-to-tablet foldable is what we’ve been waiting for. It only took Samsung six years to make its flagship foldable as svelte as a regular bar smartphone, but the Z Fold 7 delivers in all aspects. The only thing that holds it back is the $2,000 price tag, a $100 increase over last year’s Z Fold 6. See Galaxy Z Fold 7 a

More Qi2.2 chargers are here, but here’s why you should wait before buying one

Dhruv Bhutani / Android Authority TL;DR More products have been launched with Qi2.2 certification, promising wireless charging speeds at up to 25W with compatible devices. However, very few current smartphones officially support Qi2.2, but more are coming soon. More Qi2.2-certified accessories are also expected in the run-up to the iPhone 17 series launch, which will help widen product choice and stabilize prices for this bleeding-edge tech. UGREEN recently launched the new MagFlow Magnetic

Peter Thiel just bought a big stake in Tom Lee's ether company and the shares are surging

Peter Thiel, president and founder of Clarium Capital Management LLC, holds hundred dollars bills as he speaks during the Bitcoin 2022 conference in Miami, Florida, U.S., on Thursday, April 7, 2022. Shares of the ether treasury company Bitmine Immersion Technologies surged Wednesday after tech billionaire Peter Thiel disclosed a 9% stake in the firm through his venture capital firm Founders Fund. The stock was last higher by 12% but rallied as much as 20% at one point. Companies with a similar

ITC ban on BOE displays understood not to affect iPhones [U]

There’s been speculation that a legal ruling could see Apple banned from selling iPhones made with Chinese displays within the US, but it is our understanding that this is not the case. The U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) has upheld a complaint by Samsung that China’s BOE had stolen trade secrets relating to OLED screens, and banned the import of products containing these … The ITC ruling The ITC has the power to ban companies from both importing products into the US, and selling th

I’m Rewatching All of the ‘What You Did Last Summer’ Films Before the Reboot. Here’s How You Can Stream Them

I was just an elementary school kid when I Know What You Did Last Summer first fell on my radar, and I was hooked (pun fully intended), even though it wasn’t until several years later that I actually watched the entire film. The 1997 movie plays out a bit like Scream without the self-aware humor, which makes sense considering that Kevin Williamson penned the screenplays for both movies. Despite its more straightforward slasher approach, the movie’s summer setting makes it a fun, warm-weather wat

The Galaxy Watch 8 Pissed Me Off, but I'd Still Recommend It

CNET’s expert staff reviews and rates dozens of new products and services each month, building on more than a quarter century of expertise. The Running Coach on the Galaxy Watch 8 needs to be kicked to the curb. I'm not expecting an Olympic endorsement deal anytime soon, but after 20 years of running (four half marathons, multiple 10K and 5Ks), I'd hope to graduate beyond "beginner." Not according to Samsung's latest watch. Either it's using a rigid set of criteria to assign training plans, or

Google Drive could get seamlessly smarter about your PDF documents (APK teardown)

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR Google is working on bringing automatic PDF summaries to Google Drive’s PDF viewer on Android. The summary will appear at the top of the document pane without user interaction. Users can provide feedback on summaries and interact with Gemini for more answers. We’ve previously spotted that Google Drive on Android could soon serve PDF summaries through the PDF viewer. While the control given to users is excellent, there was potential to streamline the

Samsung fixes the Secure Folder flaw that let anyone see what apps you’re hiding

Mishaal Rahman / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung has patched a Secure Folder flaw that previously allowed anyone with physical access to see your hidden apps and photos. The vulnerability existed because Secure Folder was implemented as a “work profile,” which key system components didn’t recognize as a highly secure space. One UI 8 reclassifies Secure Folder as a “private” profile, ensuring system apps now correctly hide its sensitive files and app information from view. Samsung’s Secure Fo

Apple likely to be banned from selling iPhones made with Chinese displays

A legal ruling could see Apple banned from selling iPhones made with Chinese displays within the US. The ruling is not yet final, but looks very likely to take effect later this year. Apple would be banned from the US sale of any iPhone whose display was made by China’s BOE, after the company was found to have stolen manufacturing techniques from Samsung … Apple sources iPhone displays from three companies: Samsung, LG, and BOE. Samsung accused BOE of infringing on its trade secrets, and filed

Don't Make the Job Hunt Harder. 9 Strategies to Stay Sane and Get Hired

From ghosting to burnout, experts share how you can land a job in a brutal market. Jeffrey Hazelwood/CNET Stephanie Wandell applied to hundreds of jobs since getting laid off from a tech marketing role last November. When I spoke to her this summer, she'd been ghosted by recruiters and hadn't received any offers. "I was a little bit naive going into it, thinking I could do what I always do and depend on applying to as many places as I can," said Wandell. "It became pretty clear that this time

Bedsure's Bamboo Cooling Sheets Are Silky Soft, Durable, and Cheap

I’ve met many supposedly “cooling” sheets in my time as a mattress and bedding tester, and I have been disappointed more often than not. A cooling mattress can’t do all the heavy lifting with temperature regulation, and I’ll forever emphasize that your choice of bedding matters just as much—which is why I'm an unapologetic sheet snob. Which brings me to Bedsure, a brand I stumbled across on Amazon in a last-ditch effort to find some decent sheets when mine bit the dust (rather, my dogs bit holes

Google’s Discover page now summarizes news with AI

Google is rolling out AI-generated summaries directly within Discover, its personalized news feed nestled within the Google Search app. TechCrunch reports that some users in the US are seeing Discover cards on iOS and Android that provide the new summaries in place of a headline and logo from a single publisher, similar to how AI Overviews appear at the top of results in Search.

'The Summer I Turned Pretty' Is Back: How to Watch Belly, Conrad and Jeremiah's Final Season

It's not summer without you. Jenny Han's The Summer I Turned Pretty is back this week for its third and final season. Fans have been eagerly awaiting the final installment for more than a year now, and from what we've seen in the official season trailer, this is bound to be another drama-filled summer -- there might even be a wedding?

What the Post-Credit Scenes for 'Superman' Mean for the Future of DC's Cinematic Universe

It's official -- James Gunn's new Superman movie is officially a blockbuster hit, earning $125 million in the US during its first weekend. If you're a fan of other Gunn movies like Suicide Squad or Guardians of the Galaxy, you'd best grab your tickets for this relaunch of this new DC Universe before they're all sold out. Superman stars Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane, Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor and David Corenswet as the Man of Steel. The movie isn't an origin story; it picks up when Superman i

'Click to Cancel' Is Dead. Here Are 3 Other Ways to Find and Cancel Unwanted Subscriptions

The Click to Cancel rule is supposed to make it as easy to cancel a subscription as it is to sign up for one. Viva Tung/Getty Images It's easy to rack up streaming subscriptions and other monthly services with just a few taps or clicks. Cancelling them, however, can be a bit trickier. The Federal Trade Commission's "click to cancel" rule would have made it easy to cancel unwanted subscriptions. However, this rule, was blocked by the US Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals on July 8, a week before i

To make Ironheart feel tactile, the show’s creative team had to get on the same page

In Disney Plus’ Ironheart series, a young genius with an uncanny knack for building armored suits finds herself plunged into a shady, criminal underworld that gives her a chance to really show off her talents. Riri Williams is not Tony Stark, and while the Iron Man films clearly informed many of Ironheart’s fantastical visuals, there’
