Apple and Google show off their more inclusive emoji for 2019
[ad_1] You’ll see more characters for accessibility, such as guide dogs, wheelchairs and prosthetic limbs. Also, the well-known “holding hands” emote now includes many more combinations of skin colors and gender. You can also find India-focused emotes like a Hindu temple, a Diya lamp and a sari.

ActionDash 3.0’s new ‘Focus’ mode keeps Android users on task
[ad_1] If you’d rather just limit the use of certain apps altogether, then try its daily limits. That feature similarly locks down chosen apps once you’ve done enough mindless scrolling for the day.

ASUS’ ZenFone 6 has a flippable camera and giant battery
[ad_1] ASUS decided to throw in a generous 5,000mAh battery here, while most other phones tend to top out at 4,000mAh.

This […]
With Android Q, Google is pushing for more elegant, standardized gestures
[ad_1] To Google’s credit, though, it’s offering users a choice. When new Android Q devices start going on sale later this year, they’ll all have the classic three-button navigation system and the new swipe-centric system we’ve been talking about. And to be clear, I do mean all new Android Q devices will have these options. […]
Watch Google’s I/O 2019 keynote in 13 minutes
[ad_1] To say that Google had a busy I/O keynote would be an understatement. There were new Pixel phones and a Nest smart display, but those were really just the start.

AT&T’s fake 5GE icon is available in the Android Open Source Project
[ad_1] AT&T introduced the 5GE (5G Evolution) in January on Samsung’s Galaxy S8 Active and LG’s V30. But as true 5G networks are still being tested, 5GE really indicates 4G LTE-Advanced — a mix of 4G LTE plus technologies like 4×4 MIMO antennas, 256 QAM and carrier aggregation. AT&T’s competitors were quick to mock and […]
