The Activity tab provides insights into device actions, while Home Premium subscribers receive Home Brief summaries.

Gemini is central to the updates, allowing for more intuitive interactions with smart home devices through natural language commands.

Kakao rolls back KakaoTalk revamp amid user complaints

Kakao Corp. will revert part of the redesign of its KakaoTalk messenger in response to user complaints about the new feed-style interface, which many users felt compromised their privacy.

A dual-display feature will be implemented in a technical update expected in the fourth quarter. Additionally, Kakao is enhancing safety features for minors using its short-form video function. Following these announcements, Kakao's shares closed at 60,300 won, marking a 1.69 percent increase.
