Google makes it easier to share files with yourself on Nearby Share

Google is making it easier to transfer files between your Android devices. The company is updating its Nearby Share feature with a new self-share option. It will allow you to share files by selecting from the list of Android devices logged into the same Google Account. 

Right now, Nearby Share requires approval for file transfers. This update removes that extra step and allows file sharing with a single tap. Google plans to roll this feature out in the coming weeks.

Ikea will release its Swedish House Mafia-collaborated record player in October

Ikea partnered with the music supergroup Swedish House Mafia to create a record player. And we can expect that to drop sometime in October. The all-black device will retail for US$159.99. We don't know much about its technical specs. What we know is it's USB-C-powered, works with an Eneby Bluetooth speaker (through a wired connection, though), and comes with a replaceable needle and cartridge.

The player is part of Ikea's Obegränsad (the Swedish word for "unlimited") collection, so it matches an armchair, desk, LED work lamp, record stand, laptop stand, shelving units, and more. It was first announced in June, and now we're getting a clearer timeline of when it's coming out.
