Your SSD has built-in maintenance tools that Windows keeps hidden from you

Modern SSDs are highly reliable and require minimal maintenance. Windows includes tools for SSD health management, such as the TRIM command, which helps optimize performance by allowing the SSD to clean unnecessary data blocks. Users can check if TRIM is active using the Command Prompt. The "Optimize Drives" utility schedules SSD optimization routines and sends ReTrim commands. S.M.A.R.T. technology monitors SSD health, but the information is not easily accessible. Third-party tools like CrystalDiskInfo offer more detailed insights. Windows' Storage Sense feature helps manage storage on smaller SSDs by cleaning temporary files and freeing up space. The write caching policy in Device Manager enhances SSD performance, and users can adjust settings in the BIOS for optimization. Windows reserves SSD space for virtual memory and hibernation, which can be managed to reclaim storage. Overall, Windows provides built-in features to help maintain SSD performance and longevity.

5 Android App Permissions You Should Never Allow

Users should be cautious when granting permissions to applications on Android devices, as extensive access can lead to security vulnerabilities. Apps with accessibility permissions can perform actions like hacking passwords and altering device settings without user consent. Overlay permissions allow apps to display content over others, which can be exploited by malicious apps to trick users into providing sensitive information. Installing apps from unknown sources poses risks to device security and privacy. Usage data access enables apps to monitor user activity, which can be sold to advertisers. Granting access to contacts and SMS can lead to privacy concerns, as this information can be exploited by malicious entities. Users are advised to regularly review and manage app permissions to mitigate potential threats.

Google is secretly phasing out Android apps — and AI is the reason why

Google introduced a feature called "Contextual suggestions" for the Android operating system, which allows devices to proactively recommend actions based on individual habits and routines. This feature utilizes Google’s Gemini Intelligence system to provide personalized prompts, such as suggesting a workout playlist at the gym or reminding users to watch a sports game. The shift indicates a move from a reactive to a proactive system, resembling an ambient AI capable of understanding user behaviors. Initial implementations may occur on upcoming Samsung Galaxy devices, including the Galaxy Z Fold 8. The feature is designed to operate primarily on-device in an encrypted environment to enhance speed and address privacy concerns, aligning with a trend towards local AI processing.

Gemini Intelligence Brings App Automation To Android

Google has developed Gemini Intelligence, an advanced AI agent aimed at improving user interaction with mobile applications by managing multi-step tasks. It can interpret information from emails, such as analyzing a class syllabus to compile a shopping cart for textbooks. Gemini can also utilize contextual information from a user's phone screen or images to assist in real-world scenarios, like finding tours based on travel brochures. To address user privacy concerns, Gemini will only initiate tasks when explicitly instructed, require user confirmation for purchases, and allow users to manage data access through a permissions menu. A progress bar feature enables users to stop the agent's activities at any time. Gemini Intelligence is set to launch on the latest Pixel and Samsung Galaxy phones, with its success depending on reliability and user experience compared to other AI agents.

Look at how they massacred my boy: Google is killing these Fitbit app features

Google has launched the Google Health app, rebranding the existing Fitbit application, but it will phase out several features that longtime Fitbit users relied on. The badge system will be completely removed, and users will lose unique usernames, profile pictures, direct messaging, and community feeds. Child profiles will no longer allow adding friends, and the weekly leaderboard will only focus on steps and cardio load. In health and wellness, minute-by-minute stress check graphs will no longer be available, and detailed skin temperature data will be replaced with daily and weekly trends. Users cannot set calorie targets through food plans anymore, although they can set macronutrient goals. Recipes for Google Health Premium users will also be discontinued, and daily fitness plans will shift to weekly ones. Sleep features will be reduced, with the discontinuation of sleep profiles, monthly sleep animals, and the Estimated Oxygen Variation (EOV) feature. Premium subscribers will now use the Health Coach for personalized sleep responses, and snore detection on certain devices will be eliminated. The app will maintain compatibility with Health Connect and Apple Health but will no longer support connections to Lifescan devices, affecting users who monitor blood glucose levels. Users can log glucose data manually, but reminders and symptom tracking will be removed.
