WearOS 6 To Feature Material Expressive 3 Design
There’s a heavy emphasis on animations, like “smooth transitions with shape-morphing elements that adapt to the smaller screen size.” When scrolling, animations “trace the curvature of the display,” while “lists animate to give you a sense of depth that makes information more accessible.” There'll be “motion and responsive feedback” in the PIN pad alongside while controlling the media and Wear OS Tiles will get a big update that adds density to fit much more information and multiple actions.
WearOS 6 will deliver up to 10% more battery life!
Google is also bringing Gemini on your wrist in "coming months" & it will have access to apps/Extensions.

We’re bringing dynamic color-theming to the watch so that the theme you choose for your watch face applies to the entire system

Let’s say you’re at the locker room in the gym, and you’ve already put your phone away. You can use Gemini to set reminders, like “Remember I’m using locker 43 today."

Data Breach affecting over 89 million Steam accounts (about two-thirds of all users)
- Alleged Breach: On May 12, 2025, @MellowOnline1 reported a massive data breach affecting over 89 million Steam accounts (about two-thirds of all users). The compromised data was allegedly being sold for over $5,000 on a site similar to "Mipped," a platform linked to illicit activities like developer blackmailing and review manipulation.
- Supply Chain Compromise: An update clarified that this wasn’t a direct breach of Steam’s systems but a supply chain attack. Initially, Twilio, a third-party service used for sending 2FA codes via SMS, was identified as the compromised vendor.
- Valve’s Response: On May 14, 2025, a Valve representative contacted @MellowOnline1, stating that Valve does not use Twilio, contradicting earlier claims about the breach’s source.
---
### Leaked Data and Implications
- Leaked Information: The exposed data includes:
- Real-time SMS logs for 2FA.
- Message contents (e.g., 2FA codes).
- Delivery status (sent, delivered, failed).
- Metadata (timestamps, recipient numbers).
- Routing costs.
- Potential Risks:
- Phishing: Hackers could craft convincing fake messages using the leaked data.
- Session Hijacking: Attackers might intercept or replay 2FA codes to bypass security.
---
### Ongoing Advice for Users
Despite Valve’s clarification, the threat persists as data is still claimed to be sold. Users are urged to:
- Change their Steam passwords.
- Enable Steam Guard, Valve’s 2FA system.
- Monitor emails for suspicious activity.
- Beware of phishing disguised as promotions or support messages.
- Join the "Sentinels of the Store" Steam group for updates.
---
### Additional Context
- "Mipped" Reputation: Described as a shady forum, "Mipped" and its sister sites have been flagged by @SteamSentinels for years for unethical practices, yet Steam allegedly took no action, possibly exacerbating this incident.
---
### Conclusion
The source of the alleged breach remains unclear—Valve denies Twilio’s involvement, yet the sale of data persists. Steam users should take proactive steps: update passwords, enable Steam Guard, and stay vigilant. This incident highlights the need for cybersecurity awareness in gaming.
