Canadian Tire adds curbside pickup option to Android, iOS apps

Canadian Tire now has the option for curbside pickup on its Android and iOS apps. The choice was previously only available on the company's site. But a new update, which also offers fixes for "major bugs," brings it to mobile. Version 8.5.2 allows guest users to add products to their wishlist and sync the items when you sign in. 

Those who choose curbside parking get to place their orders digitally and have an associate deliver their orders to their cars when they arrive at the store. Canadian Tire stores will have designated signs to let you know where to park and what to do to receive your order.

Is a green Samsung Galaxy S20 in our future?

A Samsung Twitter account in Japan teased a possible new colour option for the Galaxy S20 series. Leaker Ishan Agarwal shared the image on Twitter that shows a green hue surrounding the camera module, which looks like the Galaxy S20's camera. The colour seems to be a darker shade of green, which would be eye-catching. Now the question is whether this variant will be released and whether it'll make its way here. Only time will tell.

Apple TV+ promotes kids shows in new ad

Amid the intense competition between streaming services, Apple is appealing to another segment: children. A new Apple TV+ promotes its kid-centric shows like Ghost Writer, Helpsters, Snoopy in Space, as well as the short-film Here We Are: Notes for Living on Planet Earth. The video description says, "Original series and films to inspire the next generation of dreamers, explorers, and believers. All on ‌Apple TV‌+."

Apple is reportedly considering buying older shows to make its service more attractive to potential viewers and keep up with its competitors.

HBO releases the first new 'Looney Tunes' episode on YouTube

 

You may or may not know that there's a new modern version of the Looney Tunes coming out on the HBO Max streaming service. HBO released the first episode of the new Looney Tunes on YouTube for free to help promote the platform. The service is all set to launch in the US on May 27. This new take on the classic cartoon is one of the original titles that'll be exclusive to the service.

As MobileSyrup reports, HBO Max content might be going mostly to Bell Media's Crave streaming service. But they speculate that CTV might get some as well. We hope that as the release date draws near, we find out more about where we can access content from the service.
