New Google Search UI on Android

On my Edge 20 Pro from Motorola, I get a new UI when I use the search bar in Google. My phone is on Android 13.

Surprisingly, some other phones from my family (both on Android 13 and 14) don't have this design, even though we are on the same version. For them, and previously for me, it looks like this.

Could it be related to this?

P.S. Did anyone else ha...

Gemini Nano won't be coming to the Pixel 8 because of "some hardware limitations"

Gemini Nano won't be coming to the Pixel 8 because of "some hardware limitations" but will be coming to more high-end devices in the near future according to Terence Zhang, a Developer Relations engineer at Google, during #TheAndroidShow.

The Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro have the same chipset (Tensor G3) but different amounts of memory (8GB versus 12GB). However, Gemini Nano is available on the Galaxy S24 series, which starts with 8GB of RAM. There may ...

OnePlus has been back for awhile.

I remember the days where OnePlus was a king android device. I've been using Pixel series for the past year or so (6a and 7a) after using a cheap OnePlus N20 bought on a whim. The N20 was a super good phone for the price. 1.5 day battery, super fast charging, decent screen and good enough performance. I got the Pixel 6a after and I struggled liking it after the N20, but I eventually enjoyed it. My father has been using the N20 and thoroughly loves it. 7a after 6a was garbage compared to 6a.

What is your Google Now replacement?

I remember for a little while, when Google Now was around, it would give me tons of useful information. Now, whatever the feed is when I swipe right, is just a glorified clickbait article feed. I want to see upcoming flights, travel suggestions, but I don't know where to begin. Is there anything like that on Android?


I used to even be able to search for my upcoming flights, but even that doesn't seem to be working. I'm curious what your thoughts are on losing Google now, and what you're usi...
