Is the way Google Podcasts updates acceptable?

My Podcasts app hasn't updated since June 2018. A few days after initial release.

However last night I noticed the Sleep timer had been added. And over the year I've noticed a few other things added too.

So everything must be added server side. Why are they doing it this way? It means when new things are added you aren't told about it through an update and it means you lost control over updates. Ie, you can't, for whatever reason, decide not to update.

Is this method of updating going to be...

What Google Messages Needs

Since Allo is no more, unfortunately I was pushed to another platform. Google's decision to discontinue Allo was supposedly because they moved the engineers from Allo over to Messages. This is all well and good, but Messages has virtually **NONE** of the features from Allo. The only thing they've apparently done is gently revamp the UI so it sports Material Design 2, instead of Material Design 1.

Here's how you can crash your Google Pixel

[I discovered this bug a good while ago](https://streamable.com/b89wy). Reported to Google and nothing was done about it. It's not a very critical bug, but it does affect all Google Pixels on Pie (not sure about Q).

Try it out on your phone and let us all know the results please. Maybe Google will notice?

Edit: Corrected a typo, meant to say it's NOT a critical bug. But still... Would be nice if it was fixed....
