That’s the gap that Xayn is hoping to fill, with an AI that the user can train in the early stages of use with the use of swipes. It says that the browser still offers “preference-driven personalization to provide relevant
This sort of reaction is about what you’d expect. After all, the heart of the TikTok experience has been feeding users a stream of binge-able, algorithmically curated content — the kind that
Quibi seemed doomed from the outset. It had several factors working against it, including an abundance of competing streaming services and apps, while users were initially unable to watch its content anywhere other than on a mobile device. The COVID-19 pandemic, meanwhile, prompted many people who’d normally be commuting and watching things on a bus, train or subway to stay at home to prevent the spread of the coronavirus. Quibi was designed for on-the-go viewing.
Ultimately, though, the public just didn’t care enough. Research firm Kantar estimated the Quibi subscriber base dropped to 710,000 in the third quarter, a drop of
If you’re in the festive spirit and you’re already listening to seasonal music, you might have noticed Spotify's Christmas Hits playlist is looking a little different. The company updated its mammoth mix of holiday songs early Friday. If you open it on the iOS or Android app, you may get a peek at Spotify's Instagram-style stories.
The Christmas Hits story features videos from several artists who are featured on the playlist, including Jennifer Lopez, Kelly Clarkson and Pentatonix. Stories have popped up on some
If you’ve ever looked at your living room and thought, “this is missing some Mandalorian characters,” there’s now an app for that. Google and Lucasfilm have launched The Mandalorian AR experience for the latest 5G Android phones, bringing characters from the show directly to your own space in augmented reality.
The app brings “iconic moments from the first season of The Mandalorian to life,” while putting you “in the shoes of a bounty hunter following the trail of Mando himself,” according to Google. You’ll also be able to retrace the Mandalorian’s steps, find the Child (aka Baby Yoda) and harness the
CVS is following up on its promise to take pharmacy payments through PayPal and Venmo. Visit 8,200 CVS locations and you can display a QR code in the PayPal or Venmo apps to pay using credit cards (including Venmo’s), debit cards, PayPal Credit, bank accounts or existing balances. You only have to tap Scan and choose a “show to pay” option. You won’t pay fees, and you can still use CVS’ ExtraCare rewards for your purchases.
The incentive remains the same: this saves you from having to touch a potentially infected keypad or grab a similarly risky pen to sign a
WhatsApp is making shopping within the app a bit easier. It's rolling out a shopping button, which will take you to a business' list of goods and services.
The button, which WhatsApp says will be available worldwide, looks similar to a storefront icon. If a business has set up a product catalog, you can tap the button to view it. You'll then be able to chat to the business if anything catches your eye. The button will sit where the voice call button used to — a single call button will instead have options for both voice and video calls.
All the GIFs, memes, random photos and videos your friends send through WhatsApp could pile up and eat a huge chunk of your device’s storage without you noticing. It can be a pain having to go through all of them when it’s time for a cleanup, which is why the app’s new storage manager is a welcome feature. The messaging service has started rolling out a new storage management tool worldwide, and it makes cleanup easier by helping you identify, select and bulk delete files.
WhatsApp’s new tool conveniently groups together large files and media that’s been forwarded many times
Zoom is now rolling out end-to-end encryption (E2EE) for both free and paid users, so your video chats and meetings should be much more secure. You can activate E2EE on Zoom’s latest desktop client, Android app and Zoom Rooms starting today. It’ll be available on iOS soon after Apple approves an app update.
You’ll need to manually switch on E2EE in your settings, and all meeting participants will need to do so for their calls to use that level of encryption. You’ll know E2EE is active if you spot a green shield icon in the top left of your call.
