@evowizz 100% yes to this!

Google needs to push for username support in the RCS protocol for Google Messages & RCS to be adopted by people, at least in Europe. Heck, even WhatsApp is starting to rollout usernames to beta users. Until then, there's no advantage in using RCS/Google Messages at all when all competitors have a way to keep phone numbers private. Hopefully they'll "get the message" 🤔

@JorgeCastilloPr Newbie Android Dev here ✋🏾 Just launched my first app play.google.com/store/apps/det…

I refuse to believe there are no Android devs here. Let’s find each other. Raise your hand if you do Android 🙋‍♂️

Performance Check-in: 🚀 How’s your Pixel performing lately? Are you experiencing smooth operation, or are there any areas where you’d prefer to see even more performance?

Pixel's At A Glance widget has a lot of useful features that a lot of people don't know about. Take, "Cross Device Timer" for example. You can tell Gemini on your Nest Hub or Google Nest Mini to set a timer and the time will also show up on your Pixel Homescreen.

How often do you contribute in Google Maps? I used to be incredibly consistent. I plan on doing better at it now that there's rumors for addition features to remove friction.

So like has X gotten better or are people just resilient on using this platform?

@evowizz It's pretty solid. A few things need some touchups but it's got good bones 😁

@michaelbtech_ Interesting! 👀

Are there any good Material habit trackers out there?

Pixel 6a is getting getting the April Android security updates. My Pixel Pro Fold isn't because it's currently on Android 17 beta for testing my app.

@csinco @AndroidStudio Love these updates! 🙌🏾

Agent Mode in @AndroidStudio Panda 4 is getting a big upgrade: Planning Mode! Allows you to work with the agent to first create a plan then code. Though if you prefer, use Fast to jump into coding and task completion.

@omartosca Yea, I think that's why I made a super simple, niche tool as my first app. I could only imagine what it would be like for a really complex one

Ya no es que podamos hacer apps para nosotros mismos, es que el tema de mantenerlas vivas sigue siendo un dolor de huevos.

@omartosca It really is

El Pixel 10a azul es muuuy bonito.

New update for my Frames for Pixel™ app so I figured I do a comparison of what you get with paying for Frames Pro and using the free Frames features. Frames is an app for Developers, Designers, Tech Enthusiasts and Tech Bloggers to create quick and easy Pixel frames.

@sammeyer858 @EveryDayTechSJB I might consider adding other devices, outside of Pixel in the future. For now, it's mainly Pixel frames.

@michaelbtech_ @EveryDayTechSJB Interesting, if you got one for the Fold 7 I'd be curious enough to check it out 🧐

Man I love a clean home screen and I'm digging the Frames app by @michaelbtech_ !!

@sammeyer858 @EveryDayTechSJB Yes sir 😁 play.google.com/store/apps/det…

@EveryDayTechSJB @michaelbtech_ What's the Frames app?

@evowizz 😆 This is a good one

Liquid Glass is coming to Inware! We are thrilled to announce that the next version of Inware will feature Apple's stunning Liquid Glass design language, bringing a whole new level of elegance and transparency to the app. We believe Apple has truly redefined what a user interface can be. The depth, the refraction, the way every text element feels like it's slightly hard to read. It only made sense to embrace this vision fully. After watching Telegram ship Liquid Glass on Android without blinking, we figured: why do what's right when you can just give them Liquid Glass instead? Expect the full rollout by mid-April. We can't wait for you to experience it.
