SharePlay Makes Google Live Sharing Seem Beta

Apple's SharePlay is a system-level feature integrated into its operating system, allowing synchronized playback and control across various media platforms like Disney+, Max, Prime Video, and Apple Music. It offers low latency, reliable controls, and seamless transitions, enabling participants to engage effortlessly during FaceTime calls. In contrast, Google's Live Sharing in Meet is cumbersome, requiring multiple steps and often leading to uncertainty about audio consistency and user experience. SharePlay supports a wide range of applications and fosters natural group dynamics, while Google’s offerings are limited and fragmented across different platforms. Apple’s approach emphasizes a polished, cohesive experience, while Google needs to enhance integration and simplify access to improve its Live Sharing feature.

My favorite Spotify feature makes other music apps completely useless in the car

Spotify Jam is a collaborative feature that allows multiple users to contribute to a shared listening queue, launched two years ago. Its integration into Android Auto enhances the in-car music experience, allowing users to make real-time adjustments to the queue without distractions. However, joining a Jam can be complicated due to the need to scan a QR code, which can be challenging in certain lighting conditions. Additionally, the Jam session is not automatically recognized by other users' Spotify apps, and users must rejoin the Jam each time the car is turned off. Despite these minor issues, Spotify Jam significantly improves the music experience for passengers in the car.

5 Best Android Apps Every Audiophile Needs On Their Phone

Audiophiles prefer high-resolution music platforms like Tidal, but the Android app landscape is changing. Spotify has introduced Spotify Lossless, offering high-resolution audio up to 24-bit/44.1kHz, which is better than CD quality but lower than Tidal's 24-bit/192kHz. Tidal provides superior audio quality, competitive pricing, and features like Dolby Atmos for enhanced sound. Qobuz claims to have the best hi-res catalog and allows users to purchase hi-res audio files, with a subscription option that offers discounts on purchases. Roon ARC enables users to access their music collections via mobile devices and integrates with streaming services, requiring a subscription for unlimited streams. USB Audio Player Pro is an app that enhances audio quality by allowing the use of an external DAC and supports integration with Tidal and Qobuz.

Microsoft celebrates Windows 11 on Arm progress as users now spend the majority of their time in natively compiled apps — compatibility is no longer a concern

Microsoft has reported that 90% of user engagement on Arm-based PCs is now with natively compiled applications for Windows 11 on Arm. The Arm app ecosystem is expanding, with native Arm versions available for apps representing 90% of total user minutes. Collaboration with Qualcomm, particularly through the Snapdragon X series of PC chips, has been crucial in this development. Major OEMs have adopted this technology, leading to new Arm-based PCs that compete with Apple Silicon. Adobe has released flagship applications like Photoshop and Premiere Pro in native formats. Notable applications now natively compiled for Windows on Arm include 7 Zip, Google Drive, Dropbox, Trello, Todoist, Libre Office, Adobe Creative Suite, Camtasia, Paint.NET, Djay Pro, CapCut, Figma, Apple TV, Apple Music, Google Chrome, Telegram, WhatsApp, Spotify, Davinci Resolve, Blender, and Luminar Neo. The current generation of Snapdragon X processors supports applications still reliant on emulation, with robust performance. Qualcomm's next-generation Snapdragon PC chips, likely named Snapdragon X2, are expected to enhance performance and efficiency further.
