Google Drive has long been a core service of the internet search giant, evolving steadily over the years. While Google continues to improve its features, one glaring issue remains unresolved: spam and phishing attacks. Users have little control over unsolicited file shares and continue to be targeted through this method. The growing concern highlights Google's lack of decisive action.
Update as of September 3, 2025: Google issued a statement clarifying that reports of a major security issue and widespread alert are false. In this article, I noted that while 2.5 billion users are potentially affected, only a few dozen have received alerts.
One kilo too much in your suitcase — and your flight gets all the more expensive. Lufthansa charges €50 more for passengers who exceed the magic baggage limit of 23 kilograms. Anyone who flies would be familiar with this scenario: at home, the suitcase is placed on the scales, at the airport, it is checked with bated breath to see whether the luggage falls within the weight limit. Excess baggage is considered a sin that airlines punish relentlessly, which makes what is now emerging in the premium segment all the more astonishing: While tourists haggle over every gram, the Group is planning to load tons of lead onto its aircraft — solely to ensure the balance for the new luxury class.
Google Photos has long been a go-to cloud photo album for many users, including those on iPhones, but it’s been missing a few novelty features. One of those is a built-in sticker grabber, popularized by Apple’s “Lift and Hold” tool. Now, Google is finally bringing a similar feature to its gallery app.
Almost everyone knows the situation: a WhatsApp notification pops up and is quickly swiped away. Then you realize that you really want to know what it said. But you don't want to open the chat, because then you have to reply immediately. This is exactly where a simple trick comes into play, allowing messages to be displayed again without activating the blue checkmarks.
The rapid rise of artificial intelligence has brought us smarter chatbots and new features, but it has also sparked a wave of wearables, note-taking tools, and transcription apps. While many of these are designed to improve productivity and enhance everyday tasks, concerns are growing about how invasive they might be. The issue is that some of these devices could be listening all the time.
Since launching on Chrome and Android, Google Password Manager has remained a quietly integrated security tool. Nearly a decade later, users now get a dedicated app, which eliminates the need to dig through settings just to access saved credentials.
Amazon is still one of the major tablet manufacturers. In order to increase its market share in this segment, but above all that of its services, the company appears to be preparing a radical step. Its own operating system is up for grabs.
Android has a roster of new features introduced with recent versions of the Android OS, but one thing that stands out is Circle to Search. It's straightforward yet effective, making it one of Google's most popular AI-enabled tools. A new update could give it an even more meaningful upgrade, which is live translation.
There are only a few days left until all Android users will be unable to use an important Amazon service. This affects one of the company's services, which was once more popular but now plays only a minor role on Android devices.
