Google Play Store brings inline app update changelog to all users

It’s taken almost a year for Google to bring the convenient inline changelogs for app updates to all its users but it’s finally here. So now, when you check the Updates tab under My apps & games you see the drop down icon right beside the Update button. When you tap on that you’ll see the “What’s new” section, which you only usually see when you’ve gone to the full app listing. This option isn’t just available for those in the Updates available section but also for the Recently updated section.

Now you no longer have to head to the app listing to see the changes to an app. One thing that can be improved, as 9to5Google points out, is that for apps that don’t provide changelogs, you’ll only see the note “Information not provided by developer.” Perhaps it would be better to not have the drop down icon show up then.

Spotify might be launching an in-car 4G music streamer

Spotify has long been rumoured to be entering the hardware business with job listings posted in the past few months suggesting this was coming soon. Now, a premature promo showing up to some of its users show the company might be launching an in-car music streamer. The ad shows a circular control that doubles as a display with navigation and shuffle buttons to the side. Some users were told it would get 4G connectivity and others saw Amazon Alexa integration. Its price would be included in the monthly subscription fee with some users seeing that it would cost $12.99 USD a month, while others saw $14.99. It had a pre-order button, too. But this resulted in an error page.

The streaming service hasn’t commented about the post. But one moderator, who isn’t a Spotify employee, commented on the company’s official forum that this was simply a test. The company has an upcoming event in New York City on April 24^th. We should hear more then.

OnePlus CEO spills beans on OnePlus 6’s specs

Writing about the upcoming OnePlus 6, CEO Pete Lau shares what the company wants to create with each new device

OnePlus isn’t know from keeping its secrets too close to its chest. With the OnePlus 5T off the market, at least in this part of the world, OnePlus’s CEO Pete Lau is ready to talk about what’s coming next (a.k.a. the OnePlus 6). Lau took to the company’s forums to discuss what customers can expect from the OnePlus 6. What we know now is that it’s going to run on a Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 processor, 8GB of RAM, and up to 256GB internal storage. These specs aren’t that surprising as we expect the best from the flagships we come across now. We’re probably just a few weeks away from the launch of this new phone, especially with the leaked teaser of a possible Avengers tie-up.
