Here’s How Google Meet Works On Android Auto While You’re Driving

In 2026, Android Auto will introduce features to improve the driving experience, including native meeting controls for Google Meet integrated into the car's infotainment system. Users must update the Google Meet app and connect their phone to access a dedicated Meet icon, which includes a Scheduled tab for upcoming meetings and a History tab for recent contacts. The system allows seamless handoff of audio and control between the phone and car when entering or exiting the vehicle. The Google Meet experience in Android Auto will be audio-only, disabling video feeds and interactive functions like polls and chat to prioritize driver safety. Essential controls such as mute/unmute and hang up will be available on the car's display, and the app can automatically mute the microphone to reduce background noise. Users must pull over to access visual elements on their phone.

These 3 upcoming Gboard tweaks could make the app even better

Google is enhancing its Gboard application for Android with new features in the beta version v17.7.4.932364120. A cursor mode is being developed, allowing users to long-press the spacebar or swipe on it to control the cursor. Gboard is also introducing an emoji customization option, enabling users to adjust emoji sizes independently with a slider that allows for five to nine emojis in a row, including larger options labeled “7+” and “8+.” Additionally, Gboard may offer full-sized keyboard keys on mobile devices, which can be toggled using the “Show accessibility layout” setting, with options for QWERTY, QWERTZ, and AZERTY layouts.

From casual hobby to luxury investment: memory costs hit PC gaming hard

Two years ago, the gaming landscape was improving with affordable video games and devices like the Steam Deck making PC gaming more user-friendly. However, demand for AI data centers has disrupted manufacturing, causing component prices to rise significantly. Microsoft reported a 2.5 times increase in costs for memory and storage, leading to a 20% price hike for the Xbox Series S in the U.S. starting in August. Apple also announced a similar 20% increase on its hardware. The MSI Claw 8 EX AI+ has been launched at a price of ,499 in Australia, offering advanced gaming performance but at a steep cost. The Steam Deck remains a popular option at 9, while the ASUS ROG Ally provides alternatives for Windows users. The Nintendo Switch 2 offers a 1080p, 120Hz screen at a lower cost but lacks many major releases. Valve's Steam Machine was initially expected to start at 9, but due to the component crisis, it now starts at 9 for a 512GB model. DIY PC builds are becoming more accessible, with a recent build costing just over ,000. Consoles from Sony and Microsoft may offer better pricing for components despite recent increases. Cloud streaming services like Nvidia GeForce NOW and Xbox Game Pass are also emerging as cost-effective options.

Microsoft begins rolling out a faster File Explorer on Windows 11, and no, it’s not preloading

Microsoft is rolling out an enhanced File Explorer for Windows 11 as part of the June 2026 optional update (KB5095093 / Build 26200.8737), which will also be included in the cumulative update scheduled for July 2026. This update improves File Explorer performance, particularly by streamlining the "Home" tab and enhancing the speed of launching File Explorer. Users will experience a more responsive interface, with improvements in the address bar and fixes for issues related to unresponsiveness when mounting disk images. Enhancements also include refinements in file and folder renaming, allowing for better text selection and case-only name changes. Users can navigate between folders using double backslashes and quotation marks in the address bar. Microsoft is also testing a faster, configurable right-click menu to improve usability. The preloading feature for File Explorer is still in development, with no guarantee it will match the speed of Windows 10.
