Is there any way to disable cast volume control on Android 13? Or at least prioritize the device volume when casting?...

Hi, I’m legally blind, have okay eyesight, but not great. I prefer a larger screen just to make my life a bit easier. I’ve been on the fence for a bit about upgrading to the Pixel 7Pro as the screen is decently larger. I understand it’s also just a better phone over all, but that’s my #1 consideration. Do you have any...

I like the feeling of holding and using a phone in one hand. I am using a Pixel 5 right now, but it feels a bit too large for me. I know nobody makes phone that small like the iPhone 4S or the Samsung S3 mini anymore, but is there at least a phone smaller than the Pixel 5? Maybe around the size of a iPhone 12/13 mini?...

I had a tile with which I could open a TV remote on my phone and control local nerwork Android TV....

I’m having a lot of problems with my charging. Sometimes I connect the charging cable, the “charging” light turns on, but the device doesn’t charge (or charges extremely slowly, such as 1-2% overnight). Just disconnecting the cable and reconnecting fixes the issue. I think the charge socket is getting loose....

I’m annoyed by Play Protect and finally want to turn it off. Comes every time with absurd, complicated to circumvent warnings about privacy-friendly services like Exodus, F-Droid, etc. from which no threats emanate, but on the contrary protect against threats that Google delivers....

I got the Galaxy tab s6 lite and wondering if there is anything I’m not aware of I should do/get for it

Hi people, I was wondering if anyone of you knew a good call recording app for Android? I’m starting soon a new job and it involves a lot of interviewing, and I was thinking of recording these phone interviews for note taking. My company doesnt provide software for it, just a work phone. It’s (presumably) running Android 12...

I was kinda worried about the lcd screen but it’s great. It looks really good. When I use the keyboard and hold down ctrl some Ranson keys light up on it, what’s that about?...

Just lost all my contacts in my Android phone....

Hi Beta users,...

If you swipe left you get to Google News. Is it possible to replace this feed with another app? Maybe an independent news service?

Come along, after thought....

Because damn that’s annoying. With phones being massive now, it makes little sense to make us reach up to the top of the screen to swipe between tabs. Do all their chrome devs just have super long fingers…?...

When in DND mode and connected to a bluetooth device, all calls will ring through and stop music playback. But it won’t happen when I have headphones plugged into the audio (courage) jack....

The Google Play Store is starting to roll out a local recommendations feature for promotions or app recommendations.

Saw Louis Rossmans original video on the app and figured (and it may well have been) it would be buggy and awful at that point. Decided to gike it a try, the app has all the options I could want for watching youtube, it’s multiplatform to a much greater degree than Newpipe and it’s forks....

I broke the screen on my pixel 7 pro, I took it to get repaired by a local shop & we discussed that I wanted an original part. They interpreted this as I want a “new” part, but not an original one. They’ve now done the repair with an aftermarket screen, which is much lower quality than an OEM part....

Google Drive is adding support for automatically generated captions to videos you upload....

I have been loving Native Alpha. Being able to use web versions of apps and not be forced to hand over absurd privacy violating permissions is awesome. My only problem is it appears to run straight off of Chrome’s web engine, and I would rather use Firefox. In large part because of extensions/addons.

YouTube for Android is testing a redesign of the miniplayer that serves as an in-app picture-in-picture (PiP)…
