The new Android Photo Picker will work in apps that do not support it.

Among other features of Android 13, Google has added a new system Photo Picker tool, which was backported to all Android 11 & 12 devices via Google Play System Update for May 2022. Although it only requires a few lines of code to implement this feature, it can take a long time for apps to adapt it.

That's why Google decided to bring the benefits of Android Photo Picker to existing apps using ACTION_GET_CONTENT. If app launch the ACTION_GET_CONTENT intent with an image and/or video mime type filter, the photo picker will be shown instead of the document picker. This does not require any changes on the application side.

This change will appear in the coming months.

Android 13’s audio output switcher will soon show cast devices!

Currently, the only playback devices that could be listed in the output switcher included the current device and any paired Bluetooth devices. But with the Google Cast SDK update and the new Android 13 'Stream Expansion' feature, you will be able to expand the audio to multiple cast devices.

Originally, the feature was introduced back in Android 11, but then disabled *for some reason*. And now, it looks like Google will bring it to back with the Android 13 remote playback system API.

But besides that, there has to be support from the app side, so if you're an app developer, I highly recommend checking out Mishaal Rahman's article on Esper:
