YouTube now lets Android users share video chapters

YouTube could share time-stamped links on the desktop for a while now. Now, Android users are getting this option, too. There are a few steps you need to do to share specific chapters in videos. You have to make sure the video you want to share has video chapters, to begin with. When they do, the chapter title is visible on the playback progress bar. And when you tap that, you'll see the different chapters with timecodes and a share button to the right that will redirect you to Android's share sheet.

It isn't clear if this is a server-side update or not, but we've checked our OnePlus 9 and found version 16.25.37 already has it. According to 9to5Google, those with YouTube for Android v.16.20.35 and newer seem to have the feature.

Nikon introduces new Z fc mirrorless camera

Nikon's newest mirrorless camera fuses together the latest tech and a distinctly retro look. The Nikon Z fc's design is inspired by the Nikon FM2 film SLR with analog tactile dials, leather-tone finish, and engraved lettering that reminds us of classic film cameras.

Even with that retro shell, it has a Vari-Angle touchscreen LCD that flips out to face you and automatically adjusts depending on your needs. The Z fc has a 20.9-megapixel CMOS sensor paired with the EXPEED 6 engine. It has a 209-point hybrid AF system that recognizes approximately 87% of the frame horizontally and 85% vertically. It also has both Rapid Eye-Detection AF and Eye Detection in the wide-area AF (L) mode.

Netflix will allow Android users to watch partially downloaded content

Sometimes, you couldn't fully download episodes and films on Netflix, leaving you without anything to watch when you can't access the internet. That's why Netflix has this new feature. The company will let Android users start watching shows and movies they've partially downloaded while connected to the internet. And once they're back online, Netflix will prompt the user to download the rest of the title. It's currently rolling out for Android users, but Netflix plans to start testing it for iOS users in the coming months.
