Android Auto for phone screens coming to the end of its life
9to5Google
The phone screen experience of Android Auto is going away soon as Google started to show banner on it. The banner just said "Android Auto for phone screens will stop working soon" and that's all, no other details are provided. No one knows when it will completely shut down, but it's happening soon.
Well, this is kind of expected as Google didn't make the application itself compatible with Android 12 and later version. They also said Assistant Driving Mode will be replacing it, becoming "the built-in mobile driving experience."

Google temporary stop RCS ads in India as users receive tons of it
Android Authority
Nobody like advertisements as it interrupts our experience, which is annoying. Those who are in India using RCS are actually getting a lot of promotional messages for quite a while, and Google decided to disable the feature temporarily to stop all this mess.
Apparently Google allowed businesses to deliver ads via RCS, but it is discovered that some businesses in India are abusing the use of the feature by sending multiple ads in a short amount of time, hence why Google had to take this action as a spokesperson confirmed about it:
"We are aware that some businesses are abusing our anti-spam policies to send promotional messages to users in India. We are disabling this feature in India while we work with the industry to improve the experience for users."
Although you might not see ads for a while, it will be returning after some time as Google didn't say they are stopping ads on RCS forever.

I enabled RCS on Google Messages and all I got was ads (Update: Google responds)
If ads have started to appear in your Google Messages app, you're not alone. The RCS messaging standard may be responsible.

Data Safety section started appearing on Play Store mobile app
After Google has updated their web version of the Google Play Store, they have included a new section called Data Safety which lets you check around what data the app collects and whether it will be shared with third parties or not. Finally, that's arriving on the Play Store mobile app.
The design is pretty much similar to what we have seen earlier, a summary of what the app collects on the app listing page, you can learn more by pressing "See details" and it will open a new page and explain how the data will be used.
This section is only appearing for apps that you haven't installed on the particular device you are using. If you have installed then it won't be possible to check this section, but you still can go to the web version and check for it if you are curious.
