Google’s answer to Apple’s Handoff is coming with a welcome upgrade for Android (APK teardown)

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-09-08 10:04:55

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. Last week, we spotted an in-development “App Cast” tool within Google Play Services. Based on the strings, we speculated that Google could allow Android devices to strea

I've tested dozens of health trackers - I recommend these 4 the most to friends and family

zdnet.com Nina Raemont 2025-09-08 09:00:15

The Oura Ring is, in my opinion, the sleep and health tracker to rule them all. Not only does it track your sleep, stress, activity, and more, it also creates helpful data illustrations that encourages healthy habits, whether that's a consistent bedtime routine, daily activity, or reduced alcohol consumption. Many users, myself included, have reported changing their drinking habits after seeing their heart rate's response to a few beers late at night on Oura's graphs. Earning high sleep scores

Researchers get viable mice by editing DNA from two sperm

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-09-08 23:34:11

For many species, producing an embryo is a bit of a contest between males and females. Males want as many offspring as possible, and want the females to devote as many resources as possible to each of them. Females are better at keeping their options open and distributing resources in a way to maximize the number of offspring they can produce over the course of their lives. In mammals, this plays out through the chemical modification of DNA, a process called imprinting. Males imprint their DNA

How to Clean Hearing Aids

You can also use this tool to gently brush the tip of the dome of each eartip, where wax is most likely to accumulate. If any tenacious wax is stuck to the tip of the dome, try using the wire loop on the reverse of the brush to gently scoop it out. Next, check the back of the receiver, where the wire attaches to it, and brush this area as well. You can use a microfiber cloth to remove any material that is dislodged during this step.
