YouTube Music has a new Explore tab to help with music discovery

YouTube Music is getting another new feature on mobile to help you discover new songs. The streaming music app will replace the Hotlist tab with a new Explore tab. The section features two subsections: New Releases and Moods & Genres. If you use other streaming music apps like Spotify, then you've seen something similar. The New Releases section considers your listening history when it shares you new tracks to listen to, while the Moods & Genres section offers premade playlists you might want to dive into. The company has started rolling out the feature, so expect it to make its way to your Android or iOS device soon.

Google Play Store to launch 'Teach approved' children-friendly app section

With a lot of parents having their children at home right now, there is a need to keep the young ones entertained when they aren't doing schoolwork or chores. Google hopes to help out with a new Kids section in the Play Store. The apps in the said section will be "Teacher approved," and Google claims these have been rated by teachers and meet the company's quality standards. The apps are evaluated based on how age-appropriate they are, the quality of experience, enrichment, and delight. Google also adds more information about whether the app will be right for their kid. It's first launching in the US, with international countries getting it in the coming months. We're hoping it arrives here sooner than later.

Samsung Galaxy Fold 2 rumoured to be lighter, won't come with S Pen

Samsung Galaxy Fold 2 is expected to retain the same form factor as the Galaxy Fold

The Samsung Galaxy Fold 2 is reportedly in active development, so the rumour mill has started churning. One of the newest leaks shares some details about the upcoming foldable device. The mobile device will reportedly be nearly 15% lighter than its predecessor at 229 grams (the Galaxy Fold weighed in at 263g). It will retain its form factor but will have a slightly bigger screen. It won't be coming with an S Pen, so if that's important to you, you will need to take note of that development (pun unintended).
