Opinions on under-screen finger print sensors.

I run a Pixel 4a 5g as my main device and a Samsung A71 as my work phone. The A71 is my first experience of an under-screen sensor and honestly it's dreadful. The response time is so slow, and that's if it works. The physical sensor on my pixel is infinitely better, as have the physical sensors on all of my previous phones....

Samsung Quick Share (Windows 10)

Supported models include Galaxy Books released from May 2021 onwards with Windows 10 version 20H2 or higher

Hopefully this expands in the future, as it seems to be a software lock. You can install it on any Windows 10 device, but the app just refuses to function. It could probably be bypassed, but I'm not even sure where to start with that. The SmartThings app seems to work on any Windows 10 device, so that might be a good sign.

ADB and Fastboot tools

In the past, "Minimal ADB and Fastboot" was a popular tool that provided ADB and Fastboot binaries for Windows, without needing to install the full Android SDK. However, it is no longer being updated, so the tool versions are out of date, and it is no longer recommended. If you are still using it, then it's time to switch to something else. Here's a link just for reference.

Google widgets are better looking on iOS than Android itself...

Hi there, if you are reading this post, you probably know what I am trying to convey here... So many of google's widgets are better looking on iOS... Considering that android has widgets ever since the beginning, this is absolutely disappointing that google makes better widgets for iOS than its own child itself...

Just open up google and search for iOS google widget, you'll see that not only it has a search bar, but also an included google feed option, an private window option and another le...
