Facebook accidentally makes plane reaction emoji available to Android users

One new Facebook reaction emoji wasn’t supposed to go live. But it was spotted by some eagle-eyed Android users before the social network could take it down. Among the list of available reactions on the app, a cute little airplane emoji showed up. A lot of people assumed this was a feature Facebook was testing or getting ready to launch. (Although, we question what an airplane emoji could even mean.) Facebook was quick to dispel the news. Apparently, it was part of an employee hackathon and it wasn’t meant to go live. A Facebook spokesperson said, “This was created as part of an employee hackathon and wasn’t cleared for takeoff. Our apologies.”

OnePlus will update the two-year-old 3 and 3T with Android P

OnePlus is doing something not a lot of phone manufacturers are doing, bring Android P to the two-year-old OnePlus 3 and 3T. Usually, phones get a two-year cycle for software update, so it was expected that Android Oreo would be the last updates for these phones. But the arrival of Android P on these devices come at a price. One is that these phones won’t get Android 8.1 update to better utilize development resources. Another is it’ll be placed at lowest priority, meaning OnePlus 6 and OnePlus 5 and 5T all get the update first. But for those who wanted to get the newest operating system, these tradeoffs might be worth it.

Netflix hasn’t confirmed ‘Luke Cage’ Season 3 yet

While rumour has it that the writers of Luke Cage are already working on the third season of the show, Netflix hasn’t confirmed its return yet. Cindy Holland, Netflix’s vice president of original content, said during the Television Critics Association press tour that they “haven’t made any firm decisions yet.” If it does push through, Luke Cage will be the third Marvel and Netflix co-produced show to get a third season (after Daredevil and Jessica Jones). The show has been generally well-received. On review aggregator site Rotten Tomatoes, its first season earned 94 percent, while its recently-released second season got 84 percent. We wouldn’t be surprised if Netflix decides to give it one more go.

It’s now easier to reschedule meetings on Google Calendar

Do you need to reschedule a meeting? Google Calendar wants to make this an easier affair for you. The app will let you propose alternative times within the app itself. The organizer of the meeting will then have the option to review and accept or reject the new time. The organizer will also be able to see the availability windows of the other attendees, if their calendars are shared with co-workers, that is. Google Calendar will show these shared calendars side-by-side to make it easier to set a new time that can accommodate everyone. Part of this new feature is letting you add an optional message to give the organizer context on why the meeting needs to be rescheduled. The feature is now live on Google Calendar for the web but will come to mobile starting August 13^th. It should also work across domains as well as Microsoft Exchange.
