An ecosystem

So Apple is starting to make some big moves. With iOS and iPad apps being available for ARM based Macs by default as well as the new Mac OS Big Sur design(which is clearly made touch screen friendly) it's clear Apple is moving towards an integrated ecosystem where all its hardware is actually properly connected. And Google needs to do something about this

So here's what I think Google should do on their end for their software because clearly some changes are in order and right now the world is ...

Android permissions feature needs to be revamped from the scratch.

Today I installed a game on my phone. I was occupied with work and thought I'd play the game later on so didn't even open the game. Couple of minutes later I saw a notification from this game about buying coins or some shit. Why is this app pushing me notifications when I didn't open/use the app even once, let alone granting permission to show me notifications?

Same thing goes for internet access to the apps. Why does every app have access to internet by default? The user should decide whether ...

No phones releasing in 18:9 aspect ratio anymore?

I don't like the new 20:9 aspect ratio, im ok with all screen 18:9 phones, the last great phone with 18:9 I can think of is the pixel 3 but it has big bezels, I wish there was a new phone with 18:9 but bezelless display, but all Android companies seem to following the same trend and this year the standard is 20:9, maybe next year it will be 21:9, the pixel 5 seems interesting, but I would be it will be 20:9, if it was even 19:9 and was bezelless I may buy it....

Firefox Preview has been merged into Firefox Nightly

Hi, I noticed today the [following message](http://imgur.com/a/DeHXg8Y) after updating FF Preview on my device.

It looks like Firefox Preview has become Firefox Nightly, which seems to be the path to make the new GeckoView developments part of the main Firefox apps.

SOLVED: Galaxy Smart Watches disconnecting from Android 9+ Phones

I replaced my S8 Active with a Blackview Bv9900 Pro which runs on Android 9. As soon as I switched, I synced up my smartwatch (Gear S3 Classic) and downloaded the associated apps. Galaxy Wearable, Samsung Accessory Service, and Gear S Plugin.

I went through the setup process and all was well for about an hour. My watch said it was disconnected and could not be reconnected. Something about the Bluetooth connection was bugging out, saying it was connected when it wasn't, and really wouldn't work ...

.HEIC image format is awkwardly implemented on Android.

If you dont know what .HEIC is, its essentially the JPEG replacement, it is able to more efficiently compress images, so smaller sizes with the same quality, and offers stuff like 16 bit colors. It was added to Android and Apple a couple years back. Most phones that have this have it disabled by default because of the issue below.

Now that sounds great and all, but the downside is adoption. Not every device can handle HEIC and more importantly, not every image service or website lets you upload...

Google Photos interface is terrible and it keeps getting worse

So I love that Google backs up photos as a service for Android users, and that's why I use Photos. The problem I have is that the interface is awful and it keeps getting worse. Especially with the latest update. The problem isn't for me though, it's when I try to explain how to use the app to my non-tech savvy elderly parents and relatives, I confuse everyone. For people who don't understand how backups work, this app is hard to use. For people who have to clear their phone regularly due garbag...

Here's how you can bypass Youtube 480p restriction in India and some other countries using YouTube Vanced.

Since the 480p restriction is only for mobile devices and not tablets we can change the model of the device in YouTube Vanced to overcome the restriction.

1. Get YouTube Vanced (no root required) follow this link
2. Once it's installed enable additional options by going to Settings -> Vanced Settings -> Tap on the About section till you get a message saying hidden Menu is visible
3. Go to Codec override -> Override model and enter the model number of any tab e.g. SM-T865
4. Restart the app and ...
