Google Photos showing your pets some love

Looks like Google is adding one more fun feature to its Photos app. Some users have spotted a new subject its auto-generated video covers: your pet. The app has been automatically generating videos or photo collages/slides based on certain events or places. Now, it seems to be adding dogs and cats to that mix. Although Google hasn’t officially announced anything yet, one Reddit user _mars_ stumbled on a Google Photos notification on his phone that said “Check out Doggie Movie.” The photo service basically compiled a bunch of photos of his dog and combined that with “The Blue Danube Waltz” with either dogs barking or cats meowing, depending on whether it’s a dog or a cat.

LG officially unveils Q6 line

Earlier today, we reported two new LG devices were headed our way. But we were missing the addition of one more unit: the Q6a. While the specs for the Q6 and the Q6+ are pretty much on point, we get the added information of all the devices sporting 3,000mAh batteries, LTE support, and having a Qulacomm Snapdragon 435 processor. All Q6 devices run on Android 7.1.1 Nougat, too. The Q6a is considered the entry-level device. It has the same 5.5-inch 18:9 FHD+ FullVision display as the other two and 13-megapixel rear and 5-megapixel wide-angle front camera as the other two. But this time, the Q6a only has 2GB of RAM and 16GB. The Q6 has 3GB RAM/32GB storage, while the Q6 has 4GB RAM/64 storage. No word yet on pricing but it’s said the devices are coming to Asia in August and will later be available in North America, Latin America, and Europe.
