Play Music Family plans are now available, at least for me. Got to settings in the Play Music app and there should be a setting for Family plans.

It has seemed very hit or miss about loading the page in the background. This is what I liked about Link Bubble was loading several pages from Reddit Is Fun in to bubbles, and letting them load up while I read more headlines. Then opening the bubbles which will have fully loaded in the background. Chromer seems to do this less than half of the time for me. I open a "web head" bubble and then the page starts loading.

ShaneB posted:So on my S7, after I get a gmail notification, I might read it on my desktop. Even after being read, the notification still sticks on my phone. This used to not happen on my old Nexus 5. I don't think it's just you. My S7 does the same thing for gmail and hangouts notifications. I had assumed it was related the the 6.0 doze/sleep power save stuff or something, but I don't know.

Zom Aur posted:I'd appreciate it more if they actually replaced stuff rather than just making one more alternative. Hangouts will stay the Google Voice (and Google Fi) app for 18-24 months. But during that period they will neglect and ignore it. Then they will announce that Google Fi is moving to Allo, then 12 months later Google Voice will move over too but it will be missing some of it's features like group MMS or something. Around the same time, Google will announce the Jibe/RCS is ready and they will release a new messaging client based on it. Seriously, I am really hoping that Allo turns out to be Jibe/RCS.

If you use Google Voice and don't have Allo, you can't respond to Allo messages.

Thermopyle posted:Just so you know that because of the way Android's VPN service works, the battery usage for network traffic in all apps is attributed to NetGuard in the battery stats instead of to each individual app. Yeah, it even warns you as much. But even still, I am at 70% battery and the phone has been in my pocket almost all day. On a day like today, I would have more than this left at the end of the day.

Google is shutting down "Spaces" on March 3rd, so that is one less google messaging app. 9 months might be a new record for killing one off.

That is really nice looking. The pro version is $9.99, which seems like a lot to me for a live wallpaper. Free version seems good enough.

Soysaucebeast posted:Seriously. I pay for Play Music because it gets me Youtube Red. When GPM completely goes away, I'm honestly torn on if I'll just move over to YTM, or keep my Youtube Red subscription and just start TOTALLY LEGALLY DOWNLOADING MUSIC again. I'll give YTM a good faith try I think, but if I can't play my music without an internet connection that's a dealbreaker for me. I wouldn't call YTM a trash fire, but it is a step backwards from GPM for absolutely no reason. It's little stupid things, like it won't automatically start playing music when it connects to my car's bluetooth, or show album art on my car's head unit unless I am tethered and using Android Auto. It's your standard Google product that replaces another Google product that was marginally better. I am sure that in the next 2 years, they will kill the YTM app and integrate 80% of its functionality in to the base youtube app for no reason.

bull3964 posted:I've never had any Android app show album art over Bluetooth with multiple vehicles, head units, phones, and apps. I know that Pandora used to do it in my previous car. I assumed that GPM did, but I didn't have a head unit that would show it till a few weeks ago in my current car, which is after I switched to YTM. So, my bad for assuming.

Will there ever be a point where Google figures out that no one is interested in any of their new products anymore because they never stick with any of them and constantly replace them with less developed new apps every few years?

It's so much nicer to have a widget that has settings that you control and can set to show what you want, how you want it, instead of what ever the gently caress the algorithm feels like today.

What else would you call the pinch to change text size that I always accidently trigger when trying to zoom in on a image.

smoobles posted:For reasons that only make sense to me, I want to customize my phone so certain apps don’t work while I’m at home. So, this is how I would do it: Sign up for Nextdns.io and configure your home router to use it as the DNS it hands out for your DHCP addresses. In nextdns, configure it to block the addresses of the apps you want to not work while at home. then when you leave the house, you will be off your network and using DNS from your cell provider or what ever Wifi you are on, and those apps should work again.
