I hope they don't stop making IPS Panels.

The OLED panels on many androids especially the budget to mid range ones are disappointing. What is the point of having those deep blacks if important things like text are not sharp. Also the funny thing is that OLED panels look sharp on iPhones. I really do not want to use iPhones but their displays are significantly better. I honestly prefer a good IPS panel over a blurry OLED panel and I hope they would improve the OLED technology on Android devices. It may be just me but I can certainly see ...

TIL Microsoft Edge has an option to autofill passwords for other apps

Not sure if it's new but on Edge Canary > Settings > Accounts > Passwords, there's an option to autofill passwords for other apps. Edge will be the new autofill service.

I'm curious how it works with MS Authenticator though, which also has an autofill option....

Google "Assistant" Driving Mode is a huge step backwards

Hopefully I can keep this aimed towards starting a discussion and away from a rant, but I've been very frustrated by Driving Mode. I've been using Android Auto's phone mode for years. It was great for someone like me who drives a car that predates infotainment systems. When it was first announced, I thought (and continue to think) that the feature was a big advantage over Apple CarPlay.

At Google I/O in May of 2019, they announced a big update to Android Auto revamping the UI and removing phone...

Pixel Users: What improvements are you hoping Google makes in Android 12?

For me personally, I'd say that Google is going in the right direction. From the leaks, refinement, consistency, and fluidity seem to be common goals of the next update.

As for nitpicky requests:

* A better built-in media player (one that fits Google's design language and offers more granular, on-screen volume controls)
* Transparent gesture bar
* Better RAM management (although I know this is in part a responsibility of the phone's chipset)
* Better third-party camera API
* Stricter design...

iOS/iPhone Perspective from a Long Time Android User

After months of deliberation (and a great deal recently), I finally bought an iPhone 12 to test the waters on the other side. So far, I only had this phone for 1 week and wanted to share my experience so far.

​

I'm sure there are a lot of posts like this but hopefully this helps for those on the fence.

TLDR: iOS has come a long way since I last used it on my iPad mini 4. Android and iOS are much more similar than they are different. Android --> more features/customizability over yo...
