    Turning OFF Background Noise Cancellation

    My in-laws recently purchased an S21+ and S21 Ultra, and we’re having trouble finding a setting that we’d like to turn off. Use Case: we frequently video call them via Google Duo. And they usually have music and videos at their house that they’ll show on the call for our daughter to see. After...

    How can I hide/remove the recently added Google Assistant app from the app drawer?

    Couldn't attach pic to original post. Here is the screenshot of the app (titled"Assistant")

    How can I hide/remove the recently added Google Assistant app from the app drawer?

    In the last month (probably in the last feature drop), my Pixel 3 XL has added an Assistant app to my app drawer (see attached pic). When tapped it just activates the assistant to start listening. How can I remove this shortcut in my drawer? I prefer to minimize the number of apps in my drawer...

    Is this the beginning of the end for Play Music?

    You know you can use an Android phone and another music service right? Just like you can use YTM on an iPhone.

    Is this the beginning of the end for Play Music?

    They're never going to do a full up push. And it's not a marketing attempt. It's risk mitigation. They obviously test an update internally before pushing something out. But once it goes public, nuanced bugs could surface and break functionality. The slow roll out is a way for them to keep tabs...

    Is this the beginning of the end for Play Music?

    What the need to improve on is YTM's recommendation algorithm. Having been using it for the last year or so, I appreciate the Discover playlist, and other suggestions, but I feel like the algorithm is too short-sighted and makes suggestions based only on what I've been listening to LATELY...

    What feature/spec will make you upgrade?

    Do you mind if I ask why you have two full movies on your device at all times? I concur with everything you have listed except for that. I have a few offline playlists, and some recent photos on my device, and I'm good with 64 GB of storage. But I could see how two full movies would put me over...

    The AC Coffee Junkies thread.

    re: AC Coffee Junkies thread. Meanwhile here in the desert, this year was the first time Vegas has reached 100F in April... Desperately clinging to a hot cup of joe, but it's soon approaching the time for cold brews! Cheers, caffeine lovers ☕

    Pixel 3/3 XL-Share your photo(s) here!

    Pixel-ception: A pic of two Pixels taken by another Pixel! Upgraded the missus's OG Pixel XL today. Hopefully her brand new Pixel 3a XL will get as many miles!

    Pixel 5 XL?

    While I'd love to see it, I'd be really surprised if they did the in display fps. Just because it would seem like a walk back from Soli, and Google doesn't seem to be the type to walk back from a commitment. I'd love to be wrong tho

    Pixel 5 XL?

    I'm ready to commit to face id fully! I just wish more apps felt the same way. You're probably right tho. It's a matter of time.

    Pixel 5 XL?

    Not much kept me away from the P4XL. I'd love to see a bigger battery (but not betting on it since that's never been a priority for them). If they go with glass backs again, I'd love for the black option to be frosted or matte. I hope to God that they don't use that U-shaped camera module we've...
