Your older Galaxy phone just lost another piece of Samsung support

Samsung has announced that the Samsung Find app will no longer receive updates on devices running One UI 2.0 (Android 10) or earlier. Users of these devices will miss out on new features, bug fixes, and performance enhancements, though existing functionalities will remain operational. Users can reinstall the latest compatible version of the app from the Galaxy Store or Google Play. Samsung advises upgrading to a newer version of One UI for continued access to updates and long-term support. The decision reflects a broader trend of phasing out support for older software versions in favor of newer iterations.

Fitbit Air’s newest update brings nothing new except invisible bug fixes

Google has begun rolling out firmware version 253.2 for the Fitbit Air, focusing on reliability and minor bug fixes without introducing new features. This is the second firmware release for the device, following an update last month. The update will be gradually available over the next few days. Users must ensure their Fitbit Air is charged or connected to its charger with at least 50% battery life and maintain a Bluetooth connection with a phone or tablet that has the latest version of the Google Health app for installation. Google recommends updating during the day or evening to avoid inaccuracies in daily step counts. The installation process takes about 10 minutes and involves using the Google Health app to initiate the update.

Windows 11’s big 2026 update is almost here, and these 10 things you need to know before upgrading could save you time and frustration

Microsoft is set to launch the 2026 Update for Windows 11, known as version 26H2, later this year. This will be the fifth feature update for the operating system. The upgrade from version 25H2 to 26H2 will utilize an Enablement Package (eKB), allowing for a transition similar to a standard monthly cumulative update without requiring a full reinstallation. Users can also upgrade from Windows 10 using an ISO file or Microsoft installation media, which ensures files, applications, and settings remain intact. Upgrading to version 26H2 extends the support lifecycle of devices by an additional year, with Microsoft providing 24 months of support for Home and Pro editions and 36 months for Enterprise and Education editions. Version 25H2 will continue to receive support until October 2027, and users are advised to plan upgrades before this support ends. Windows 11 version 26H2 has the same hardware requirements as version 25H2, which include a 1GHz processor with at least two cores, 4GB of RAM, 64GB of storage, UEFI firmware with Secure Boot, TPM version 2.0, DirectX 12 compatible graphics, and a high-definition display. The rollout of the update will be gradual, following a Controlled Feature Rollout (CFR) strategy, meaning not all devices will receive the update immediately.

Valve reassures Team Fortress 2 players that it’s still working on the Mann vs Machine update it announced last year: ‘We promise we’re making progress’

Valve has provided an update on the long-awaited Mann vs. Machine mode for Team Fortress 2, acknowledging the delay since the initial call for community submissions in June of last year. The fictional deadline of August 27 has passed without further communication until now. Valve humorously stated, "We're still working on the MvM update." Despite infrequent major updates, Team Fortress 2 has seen increased player engagement following a significant update in 2023, and a recent update introduced new community maps, cosmetics, and taunts, along with smaller patches for bug fixes.
