Google Drive adds security features to file sharing

Google just updated Drive to add new features that give you more control over how others can use content you share. You now have the option to disable the ability of someone to print, download, and copy content you share with them. It might not be a big issue for a lot of people but if you share confidential files and need to limit someone else’s access to them, this option is quite handy.

To activate the feature, you just need to tick the checkbox for this option. It’s available under the Advanced menu, once you opt to share a file. This feature is only available to the file owner. And it doesn’t seem to be available for mobile users just yet.

Skype introduces easier sign-ins for Android

The latest update Microsoft is pushing out for Skype is making it easier for users to log on to their accounts. Version 5.5 of the app now remembers your log in details so when you log out and just want back into Skype through your Android device, you simply need to tap the arrow. If you’re worried how much of a security risk this is, you do have options to enable having to input a password every time you try and sign in.

Aside from that, Microsoft is planning to introduce web link previews into Android as well. It’ll be coming out in the coming weeks. This feature lets you see a small preview of a link sent to you by someone while on Skype.
