So I read some time ago about ambient mode, the Google assistant charging home screen / Google photos photo frame, that was coming to the wireless charging Pixels while on the proprietary google wireless charger a couple months ago now.
But I just got a notification for "Ambient mode while charging" and here are some screenshots of the setup process and use.

Apex Launcher is now pushing scummy ads for a new browser
IMO, uninstall ASAP and report to the Play Store; this is too intrusive and a cery scummy approach to trick the not-tech-savvy. Apex has injected itself in such a way that when you try to run Chrome or Firefox, a prompt appears with two options: The browser you expected or a "Privacy Browser" they "Recommand". That bogus browser is to be installed from play store. It's this: [https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=privacy.browser&hl=en](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=priv...

The OnePlus Experience.
In February of this year (late to the hype party, I know), I ordered my OnePlus 6T, and recently bought an S10+ to replace it. And to say the least, owning one wasn't the best experiences with phones I've ever had.
I loved that phone when it arrived, everything about it was perfect. It was the perfect size for me, the fingerprint sensor was pretty quick, it charged quickly, there were so many things I liked about this phone. But then the problems started pouring in.
