A new yet-to-be-released Google file management app helps keep your phone clutter free

It might come this week, in the next month, or somewhere down the line, but Google seems to have a new app it’s working on to help you manage the mess of files you have on your phone. We all know how files can wreak havoc later on when it comes to your phone’s performance. The app called Google Files Go has shown up on the Play Store but as Android Authority reports, you can’t just yet. A message says the app is part of an early access program that’s currently full. The screenshots above show what you can do with it though. It can do things like suggest apps to delete in case you haven’t used them for a while.  It’ll also help you find duplicate files or images stored on your phone as well as view all your files and filter these by source.

On top of that, the app is also making it easier to transfer files to someone else’s phone even while offline. It seems Google Files Go is part of the company’s Android Go program, which is designed to offer the Android experience to phones with as low as 512MB RAM and those with little onboard storage. It makes sense that this feature will be made available to them. Again, we don’t know anything past these features and there is also the possibility that only Android Go devices will gain access to it. We just now have to wait and see.

21st Century Fox reportedly in talks with Disney to sell most of its company

There are reports going around claiming Disney and 21^st Century Fox are currently in talks about the latter selling off most of its company to the multimedia production giant. According to CNBC, it has been happening in the past few weeks but there aren’t any guarantees that it’ll lead to a deal. They describe the talks as being “on again, off again.” If the deal pushes through, it’s said Fox will give up most of its properties except those that revolve around news and sports. It seems senior management at Fox see that they can’t compete in the changing media landscape and sees Disney and its big machine capable of competing against the big internet companies that are leading the charge now (e.g. Facebook, Netflix, Google, and Amazon, to name a few).

For Disney, this deal would be advantageous as it preps its own streaming service. They’d gain access to more movie and TV productions to add to their own streaming offering. And if you’re thinking what we’re thinking, we might finally get that X-Men, Avengers, and Fantastic Four crossover that we’ve been waiting for. (Even Ryan Reynolds is wondering what this deal could mean for his character Deadpool.) At the moment, nothing is for sure yet but we’re keeping our eyes out for this.

Review: Apple iPhone X

By Gadjo Cardenas Sevilla

While the original iPhone had no viable competitor (the LG Prada was close, but no cigar), it managed to rewrite the rules of what modern smartphones should be.

2007's iPhone brought multi-touch, it brought real web browsing, actual web-experiences and apps.  These are features we can all take for granted today and which are abundantly available, even on the cheapest smartphone. Hit jump for our review of Apple's all glass flagship.

‘Wonder Woman’ is now the top-grossing superhero origin movie

Clay Enos

Since the movie came out in June, Wonder Woman has been smashing records left and right. This time, it becomes the highest grossing superhero origin movie ever made. Director Patty Jenkins’ smash hit just earned US$821,750,942 worldwide. It overthrows 2002 Spider-Man film, which earned $821,708,551. According to BoxOfficeMojo, the three other best-selling origin films are Deadpool at $783,112,979, Guardians of the Galaxy at $773,328,629, and Suicide Squad at $745,600,054. These, however, have not been adjusted for inflation, as Business Insider points out, which means Spider-Man earned over a billion if that’s factored in.

But it still doesn’t detract from the success and popularity of Wonder Woman. It’s still the highest-grossing DC Extended Universe movie, highest-grossing live action film by a female director, one of the top five highest-grossing superhero movies of all time, and most tweeted movie of 2017. We’ll be seeing Diana Prince a.k.a. Wonder Woman next in the upcoming Justice League film.
