New Music features on YouTube for TV viewers

YouTube has rolled out some cool new features for music lovers who enjoy watching videos on their TVs. Now, you can enhance your music experience with special “Display” options that make listening to songs more fun and interactive.
When you’re watching a music video, you’ll spot a new “Display” button right between the “Thumbs Down” and “Save” options. Clicking this button will give you a few choices on how you want the screen to look while your music plays.
First up, there’s the “Video” option, which is just your regular music video playback. But if you’re more into the lyrics, you can choose “Lyrics,” which will show the words of the song scrolling live on the left side of your screen, just like in the YouTube Music app. It’s perfect for singing along or learning new songs.
For those who like a bit of visual art with their tunes, there’s the “Artwork” choice. This will display the album cover art in the center of your screen with a cool, blurred color background, and underneath, you’ll see the song title and artist name.
These Display options don’t just work for one song; they stick around for all your tunes, making it easy to switch between watching videos, reading lyrics, or just enjoying the artwork as you go through your playlist. You can find these features by starting a song from the YouTube Music tab or the home screen app shortcut on your TV. This update really makes for a relaxed, lean-back music experience on bigger screens.
This new functionality is available starting with version 5.22+ of YouTube for Android TV, and it’s also popping up on other smart TV platforms. So, next time you’re ready to kick back with some music, your TV viewing experience just got a whole lot better.

Android 16 Beta 3.2: What’s new and improved

Google has just rolled out Android 16 Beta 3.2, a small update that fixes some bugs and boosts performance for testers. This version comes after Beta 3, focusing on making the system smoother and more reliable. It’s part of Google’s plan to get Android 16 ready for everyone later this year.
This update tackles a few annoying issues. It fixes a glitch that made notifications act weird, like not showing up right or disappearing too fast. It also solves a problem where apps would crash when trying to open certain files. Plus, it improves how the battery lasts by tweaking how apps use power in the background.
For people testing this beta on Pixel phones, the update is easy to grab. Just head to the settings, check for updates, and download it. It’s about 500 MB, so it won’t take long. Google says this is one of the last beta versions before the big launch, so it’s a good chance to see what’s coming. Android 16 is shaping up to be faster and more user-friendly. With these fixes, Google is working hard to make sure it runs great when it finally arrives!
Google’s new updates make life easier

Google is rolling out some cool changes to its apps! First, Google Keep now lets you turn your handwritten notes into text. Just scribble your thoughts, and the app will type them out for you—super handy for quick ideas or lists. It’s simple and saves time!
Next, Google Discover is adding a fun “Space” section. This new feature shows a slideshow of space-related stuff, like planets and stars, right on your home screen. If you love learning about the universe, this makes it easy to stay curious and explore more.
Finally, the Gemini app is getting a big upgrade with Google Photos. Now, you can ask it to find specific pictures—like “my beach trip last summer”—and it’ll dig through your photo collection to show them. It’s like having a smart helper to sort your memories!
These updates make Google apps more helpful and fun. Whether you’re jotting down notes, gazing at the stars, or finding old photos, Google’s got you covered with tools that feel easy and natural to use. What do you think—ready to try them out?
New updates for Waze and NotebookLM make life easier

Waze, the popular navigation app, just got a fresh update for Android users. With version 5.5.0.1, it now supports themed icons. This means if you’ve turned on themed icons in your Android settings, Waze’s logo will match your phone’s color style, moving away from its usual blue look.
It’s a small change, but it makes your home screen look nicer. The update doesn’t seem to add much else, focusing only on this visual tweak. Meanwhile, Google’s NotebookLM has a cool new feature called “Discover Sources.”
This tool helps you find useful web links for your research. When you click the “Discover” button in the Sources section, you can type what you’re curious about. NotebookLM then finds up to 10 relevant websites, each with a summary explaining why it fits your topic. You can pick the ones you like and add them to your project. It’s perfect for students or anyone digging into a subject. This update is rolling out soon to all users, making research simpler and faster.
