Gemini Live is starting to roll out!

I just got it on my Galaxy Z Fold 6, without any spoofing/sideloading/etc.

You need to be a Gemini Advanced user to access it, though.

Phone Link now lets you easily share files between your Android phone and PC through the share menu!

How to use it:

On Windows, right-click a file, click Share, then select "Phone Link" under "Share using." This will send the file to whatever Android device your PC is currently connected to via Phone Link.

On Android, select a file, tap the share button, then select "Link to Windows [Send to PC]." This will open a menu letting you choose which PC you've connected via Phone Link to send to.

Storage location:
On Android: /Download/Send from my PC
On PC: /Downloads/Phone Link

I've been using this for a few weeks but didn't even know it was actually new until Windows Central reported on it. In fairness, I only recently started using Link to Windows more earnestly after getting the Galaxy Z Flip 6/Z Fold 6.

That new Pixel Screenshots app on the Google Pixel 9?

It'll import and analyze any existing screenshots you transfer from your old phone. But if you were hoping to turn it into a Recall clone, nice try! The app is throttled to save battery life.

Don't worry: Pixel Screenshots will analyze your existing screenshot collection, too | Pixel Screenshots can't be turned into a Microsoft Recall clone even if you try

Android's theft detection lock feature is finally starting to roll out!

The feature automatically locks your phone when it detects your phone has been snatched from your hand. It uses data from your phone's accelerometer and gyroscope and checks if common motions associated with theft are detected.

Theft detection lock is rolling out now for a limited number of users who signed up for the beta program in Brazil. It'll eventually roll out through Google Play Services on all Android 10+ devices.

Thanks to Rodrigo on Telegram for the tip and screenshots!
