Google meet(original) is the only meet left. They killed Google Duo for this crap.
Wired has a great article on why this feature should exist: https://www.wired.com/story/weddings-social-media-apps-photos-memories-miscarriage-problem/
Best we can do is more scammy suggestions(Ads) when you use the search bar in play store. - Google
Care to elaborate ??? I don’t see it, helping stalkers.
Had the same idea, but it won’t work:
On the flip side, they can read your group chat messages. Many(me included) will prefer that it isn’t a possibility.
The bar shows dates?
People on metered connection and low connectivity areas are probably going to more inconvenienced by this force update banner. Unable to use your message app because you forgot to update and now cannot connect to the internet.
The badge is to help people identify official apps.
I think it’s not about that development but whom the data is being sent to, the state or some third party that provides same services.
Like a National Emergency Broadcast app or app for vehicle and driver’s license registration service, that need sensitive info like your Govt ID and other details.
Firefox flatpak version had a lot issues. It has improved a lot, still a long way to go.
I have exclusively used Firefox flatpak for the last year and updates has been quite smooth. Never had my session closed automatically(to my memory) due to an update, usually waits for me close the session and when I reopen its updated.
My experience is limited to Ubuntu.
I never had this issue. What were you using deb, rpm, flatpak or snap version?
Are there any other options?
A persistent banner asking to update at the bottom of the search bar is a good idea. Barring access to an essential app under any condition is just bad UX.
Google Play’s simultaneous downloads do not apply to application updates, which would be more useful as updating is more common than fresh installs.
I agree with the author, updates happening in parallel would help with the 3mb update to Gmail holding up 30-40 mb update on another app problem.
If you are going to take your phone to a protest. Think about your digital safety.
Duo was perfect for this.I really miss Duo.
Another Google masterclass.
