Google might be undoing some controversial changes to the Photos app

Google is updating its Photos app based on user feedback regarding the photo editor. The revamped editor will feature a more familiar layout for essential tools like Crop, Adjust, and Filters, which will now be located at the bottom of the interface for easier access. The Crop menu, removed in the last redesign, is being reinstated. Quick-access buttons for features like Enhance and AI Enhance will remain, and a new streamlined Ask button will be introduced. Labels for actions will also be updated to a pill-shaped design for better usability. Additionally, Google is testing a new "Explore" feature on the Photos welcome screen, which offers a TikTok-like vertically scrolling feed of curated videos based on AI analysis of content, location, and featured individuals. Both the updated photo editor and the Explore feature are being rolled out to a select group of users.

A Google TV update may have broken one of the best ways to avoid home screen ads

Recent updates to Google TV have disrupted the functionality of the Projectivy Launcher, a third-party application that allows for home screen customization. Users report that the launcher can no longer override the default Google TV interface, causing frustration as the default home screen reappears when the Home button is pressed or devices are woken. While some users still find the launcher functioning correctly, others have suggested workarounds, such as resetting settings and re-enabling override permissions, with varying success. Projectivy Launcher is popular for eliminating ads and providing a customizable interface, but it is unclear if the issues stem from an intentional update or a bug.
