Apple is increasingly focusing on building its own devices and expanding its ecosystem by taking steps towards a more native experience for users and relying less on third-party accessories. While the Cupertino-based tech giant's HomePod and AppleTV have left quite the mark in the smart home category, it generally relies more on outsourcing cameras and other hardware for smart homes. Now, a new report suggests that the company intends to create a fully integrated experience by developing its own smart home accessories. Gurman hints about Apple working on making smart home products like security cameras for a more integrated experience […]

Android and ChromeOS are two of the brainchildren from Google, and for the longest time, they have both managed to enjoy a good chunk of success. Android is largely found on our smartphones and tablets, while the latter is is reserved for specific tablets, laptops, as well as PCs. If you have ever found yourself wondering if these operating systems can work on either of the devices, then Google has just proved that it can be possible, but I would not advise you to wait for that to happen. ChromeOS running on Pixel 8 seems like a great idea but […]
The recently released Pixel 8a is one of the best phones out there in the market for those who are looking for a device that is both affordable but also packs a punch. There are several reasons as to why one should go for the device like the fact that it is more affordable than its elder siblings while maintaining most of what makes the Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro so good. However, benchmarks of the newly released budget Pixel tell a slightly different story. The Pixel 8a is slower than its elder siblings but still delivers exceptional performance […]
The Pixel 8 is honestly one of the best-looking phones out there in the market, and if it weren't for the Galaxy S24 Ultra, that is the phone I would have picked what Google has to offer. The camera island is something that really attracts me, but the one thing that I have always wondered about is why Google decided to go with a glossy camera island on a phone that is matte. Well, sure, it creates a contrast, but it also attracts a lot of fingerprints, which are not something people like. This Pixel 8 mod is the stuff […]
Now that Google's Find My Device network is available for everyone to use, we are learning more and more things about how the network works. During the announcement, the company talked about how Pixel 8 devices will be able to leverage the network even when they are powered off. We have good news now, as this feature is apparently coming to other devices in the future as well. Google is working with other Android manufacturers and chip makers to make Find My Device network even more powerful Speaking with Android Authority, Google confirmed that the feature is indeed coming ot […]
The process to take a screenshot on your iPhone or Android device is pretty simple. It is typically a combination of buttons you press to record an instance of what is showing on the screen and capture it in the form of an image. However, if you want to take a longer screenshot for content that requires scrolling on the screen, you can do so easily with only a few taps. The scrolling screenshots have existed for a while on both the iPhone and Android, but the process is quite different for each device. Check out how to take a […]
Google has gradually improved the Pixel lineup, with a handful of design changes and feature upgrades coming every year. The Pixel 8 lineup was specifically received pretty well in the smartphone industry, but the company failed to deliver when it comes to the ongoing stuttering and scrolling issues. Note that the scrolling issues on Pixel phones have existed for a while, and the company has taken note of it, but it says that the fix will arrive with the launch of Android 15. Google Will Fix The Ongoing Stuttering Scrolling Issue on The Pixel 8, But Users Will Have to […]
Google recently introduced that Gemini Nano is coming to Pixel 8. The feature will be a part of an upcoming Pixel Feature Drop, and once it is available, you can go ahead and start using it on your phone. However, the company has now confirmed that you will have to enable the feature manually on your phone through developer options. If you want to enable Gemini Nano on Pixel 8 and you are wondering how to do that, this article is for you. You'll soon be able to enable Gemini Nano on Pixel 8, just follow the steps below Before […]
The Pixel 8 is a great phone, and on a hardware level, it is the same as its elder sibling. Because of this, you would think that both phones are similar in every way, but that is not the case. For some reason, Google has kept several features limited to the Pro variant, including Gemini Nano. This decision is perhaps the strangest because both phones are running on the same chipset, but Google seems to have backtracked on its decision and has decided to finally bring support to the younger sibling. Pixel 8 is finally getting Gemini Nano, and I […]
Android 15 is going to introduce a bunch of new and exciting features, and one of those features will be the Powered Off Finding API. As the name suggests, this API will allow your devices to be found even when they are switched off. However, in order to use this feature, your smartphone will need to have hardware capabilities. It now appears that the Pixel 8 series already has these abilities, and they are also expected to be found in the Pixel 9 series coming out later this year. Android 15 could allow you to track your device even when […]
One of the best things about Google's Search Generative Experience, or SGE, is that it allows you to summarize web pages into points that you can easily understand without having to read the entire article. The feature is already available on all smartphones via the cloud, but thanks to a new discovery, it could soon become part of the list of on-device AI features that the Galaxy S24 and Pixel 8 series possess. Gemini Nano will make on-device web page summarizing possible on Galaxy S24 and Pixel 8 devices Android enthusiast and expert Mishaal Rahman found a lot of compelling […]
One of the best features that the Galaxy S24 series debuted with was the circle to search. This is an AI-powered feature that lets you search anything that you see on screen by simply drawing a circle around it, and from its looks, it works really well. Sure, there are occasional hiccups, but it never fails to get you the results you are looking for. The feature soon expanded to the Pixel 8 series and is also on the Pixel 7 series. So, we thought it would be best to write down a tutorial that will help you use circle […]
