Spotify App New Look

Is it only me or did anyone else notice Spotify made the bottom bar (Home, Search, Your Library) background transparent with the latest update? Previously it used to be greyish dark if I remember correctly. I think this one looks better....

A dozen things to love in Android 12

The margins in the new Android 12 Notifications are absurd

Picture: https://i.imgur.com/q4QQehY.png

They've taken up so much space with pointless whitespace and over-designed margins that there is virtually no room left to display any actual content. From a screen width of 1080px, by the time the notif is actually showing me a preview of what was sent, there is only 387px left of space. That's 22 characters! smh

edit: Here's another one. 70% of the screen space taken up by the notification is whitespace. 70%!!!...

So Moment Pixel 6 cases work with MagSafe. You can charge your phone, use the wallet, other accessories. This is hilarious but also amazing.
