@GappsLeaks

Emm......but why ☠️

Edit : The strings were added recently in the Google Message app. Seems like some parent kid supervised account thing.

@GappsLeaks

Never expected this. 🥳🥳

Getting mentioned at TechLinked... don't look at the video title (it is right though 😝). Lol

#OpinionRewards

Opinion Rewards will allow users to link their Gmail account to share receipts and earn more rewards.

Another string from the app-
• Share a receipt from %1$s by forwarding it to [email protected]

Google already allows users to upload receipts through the Rewards app itself in some countries. So this change will only benefit users in those countries only.

#Google

This has nothing to do with Google Keep 😁

For people wondering what is Google Notes - Read here

@GappsLeaks

Why keep teasing Google, release the feature, its been three months already ffs.

The selfie gif feature. Apparently google keeps adding and removing strings related to this feature in beta updates.

#Gmail

Google is making it easier to unsubscribe from mailing lists/Subscriptions in Gmail

@GappsLeaks

#Gmail

The summarize email feature inside the Gmail Android app will work the same as the web version. Tapping "Summarize this email" will open a bottom panel with "Summarize this email" automatically inserted.

It still doesn't work yet and the option of Gemini from the 3 dot menu is gone (which isn't supposed to be there it seems).

Password sharing works, with a bonked UI ☠️

@GappsLeaks

Wtf is Picard and Riker ? (Google Wallet)

#GoogleChat

You'll soon be able to call everyone in a group on Google Chat without fiddling with invite links

Read - https://piunikaweb.com/2024/04/15/google-chat-group-call/

To those wondering, Google Chat allows to directly audio/video call someone in a 1-1 conversation only. For group/meetings calls you have to send an invite link and other users can join through that link.

@GappsLeaks

#GoogleMeet

Google might tweak its video call UI (inside the Gmail app) a little bit to make it similar to the web UI.

Left is the new one which I enabled, the right one is the current UI.

@GappsLeaks

#Google

The subtle gradient animation in the search bar text when you open the Google app..

No, you don't have it. 😝

@GappsLeaks

#Whatsapp

WhatsApp is working on a new way for posting Video Notes directly from the Photo/Video posting UI (The camera icon) in chats.

Currently you can post video Notes by tapping the audio recording button, which basically switches between audio and Video Notes.

@GappsLeaks

#GoogleMaps

Google maps has added the option for "Show 3D buildings" during navigation. It has been in testing for some time. Google Maps beta version 11.125 makes it available for everyone. It has been already possible to view 3D buildings in normal map view through the 3D buildings layer option.

The option now syncs between Android and Android Auto as well (only on startup, thanks @nexusben1)
