Gmail

Google is working to bring Gemini features to Gmail for Android. Previously, the company rolled out Gemini toggle to Gmail for Workspace users. Gmail users on Android will soon be able to have generative AI features powered by Google’s Gemini.

In an APK teardown, AndroidAuthority discovered Gemini AI features in the Gmail app for Android. The change is currently hidden behind flags, making it inaccessible to general users. However, the outlet shared a video showcasing how Gemini will work.

Version 2024.05.19.635289964 of Gmail for Android prepares the base for Gemini integration. Google may have been testing it internally to begin the deployment through a future Stable release. While the release timeline is uncertain, we might get it next month.

The Gemini toggle will be accessible before the Archive toggle in the Gmail header. The AI-derived feature will allow you to do more tasks such as asking for reply suggestions, changing the tone of a drafted response, and other non-email tasks.

Google Maps lets you report traffic jams and accidents on Apple CarPlay, but not on Android Auto

Google just added a feature that lets you report accidents, slowdowns, and other road issues directly from your car’s display. Well, it is currently limited to Google Maps on Apple CarPlay.

Similar to Waze, Google Maps on CarPlay now has a button to report accidents, slowdowns, construction, lane closures, stalled vehicles, objects on the road, and even speed traps. Just like before, you can still see reports from other drivers about these issues on your route.

By reporting issues, you can help other drivers avoid traffic jams and accidents. With everyone contributing information, Google Maps can provide more accurate traffic conditions and ETAs.

Unfortunately, Android Auto users are still left out. We’ve been asking Google to add this feature for a while now, so hopefully it’s coming soon!

This feature is new and might not be available to everyone yet. In the meantime, stay safe on the roads and report any issues you see on Google Maps if you’re using CarPlay.

Android Photo Picker Google Photos

Google Photos app is about to take your video editing a step further. A hidden feature found in app version 6.90 hints at an upcoming video speed editor (via Android Authority). This means you’ll be able to ditch third-party apps and adjust video playback directly within Google Photos.

The video editor offers various speeds like 1/4x for super slow-mo or 4x for fast-forwarding. You can even choose to adjust the entire video or just a specific section, perfect for highlighting key moments. It’s still under development, so expect a more user-friendly icon instead of the current “1x” placeholder.

Additionally, future updates might allow you to fine-tune the speed of different parts within the same video for even more control.

This upcoming video speed editor marks a significant upgrade for Google Photos, making it a more comprehensive video editing tool. Keep an eye out for this update to add some fun and flexibility to your video editing experience.
