Essential Apps to Install First on Your New Android Phone

Google's Find My Device app is essential for Android phone users, providing security features such as locating a misplaced phone, playing a sound, and remotely locking or erasing data. The app's integration with Android has improved tracking accuracy and introduced features like offline finding and compatibility with Bluetooth trackers. Other recommended apps for a well-rounded Android setup include Bitwarden for password management, Solid Explorer for file management, Google Keep for note-taking, and Signal for secure messaging. Productivity apps like Microsoft’s SwiftKey keyboard and Todoist for task management are also highlighted. Customization options include Nova Launcher, while performance optimization can be achieved with Greenify. Privacy-focused tools include DuckDuckGo Privacy Browser and Authy for two-factor authentication. Emerging trends suggest increased AI integration in apps and innovations for foldable devices. Regular maintenance apps like CCleaner and update managers are recommended for long-term device health.

Find My Device prepares a ‘compass’ for finding trackers, likely for UWB support

Google's Find My Device network is set to receive enhancements, including the integration of Ultra-Wideband (UWB) tracker support and a new "compass" feature in the latest app update (version 3.1.148). This compass feature will provide directional prompts to help users locate their devices, such as “Turn left,” “Turn right,” and “The device is behind you.” It aims to improve the existing functionality for locating Bluetooth trackers, which currently has limited precision. However, initial tests indicate that this new functionality is not yet operational.
