PSA: You can block all ads on your Android phone.

I made a fun how-to summary (in the material design aesthetic) of device-wide ad and tracker blocking for the average user.

It'll probably be beneath the /r/android community, but maybe you'll appreciate it and might share it with your friends for their benefit. Usersub are not fans, apparently.

[Check it out](https://imgur.com/gallery/Eh34UTS).

TL;DR — You can block all ads on your Android phone by making dns.adguard.com your DNS....

Interesting bug: switching the font size and immediately pressing the app switcher button triggers the old app switcher design in Android 9

The trick is to change the font size in Screen settings and press the app switcher button immediately.

Modern Authentication (Office 365) for Email on Android: What options are there?

Does anyone know when, or if, Modern Authentication will be supported in native Android mail clients such as Gmail.

We've had to move a few clients to Microsoft Outlook app for Android and they aren't pleased, but I'm having trouble finding any details with further information.

Was hoping someone else in the community has done the research or knows more than I do on the subject....

U.S. "Chat" Rollout Imminent?

I just had the weirdest thing happen. I check for rcs chat features constantly.

I was messaging someone on messages.android.com when I noticed in the settings menu that there were options to turn on chat features. I wondered "maybe its a bug and unlike my handset, the website doesn't know if the features are available yet to me or not".

So i went to my messages settings and there they were. I turned them on, gave permissions, and it said it was setting up and would tell me when its finished....

As an iPhone user, I’ve loved following the development of the Wear OS hardware and software. However, I’ve just about given up on Wear OS and future “Google watch” projects.

To start things off, I’m sure I’ll be downvoted and disagreed with. I’m well prepared for that.

Anyways, I’ve been following the Wear OS side of things for a while, and was actually pretty fascinated by its early concepts even before it was called Wear OS. However, as of today, I’ve given up on it. The hardware is not excelling, the software is sluggish at best, and I just don’t see any of the hardware manufacturers or even Google catching up to the feature set, capabilities, and functionality...
