Hyundai execs are reportedly 'divided' over possible Apple Car partnership
Saturday, January 30, 2021 at 3:29PM We've heard rumours that Apple is in talks with Hyundai about developing its yet-to-be-confirmed Apple Car. And a new report from Reuters focuses on reluctance from the Korean car manufacturer's side. The report claims that Hyundai's executives are divided over the idea of collaborating with Apple. The primary concern is that the deal might turn Hyundai into a contract manufacturer for another brand, which an unnamed Hyundai executive claims they don't really do.
Their discussions reportedly began back in 2018 when Apple's car initiative was headed by Alexander Hitzinger. Hitzinger now works for Volkswagen. The talks stalled supposedly because of Hyundai's reluctance to work with other companies. The carmaker doesn't want to be like Foxconn for Apple's vehicles. But Hyundai has excess capacity, and contract manufacturing will help it secure production volume.
Netflix experiments with a sleep timer on Android
Saturday, January 30, 2021 at 8:53AM 
If you're the type of person who watches Netflix shows before you fall asleep, you might like what the streaming service is testing out. Some Android users are getting a sleep timer function via a new clock icon in the interface. It will come in handy if you don't want to miss a spot on a show or movie you're watching because you fell asleep while watching it, and it will help conserve your phone's battery, too.
When you are watching something and want to set a timer, you tap on the icon and select a time between 15, 30, or 45 minutes. Or you can opt for the app to stop playing videos after an episode or a film is done streaming. If users enjoy utilizing this feature, Netflix might consider a wider release. For now, it's available for adult profiles on the service.
