Google's Cast notification can finally be disabled
Several months ago, Chromecasts got a new feature that would allow anyone to control any Chromecast device on the same Wi-Fi network. But what this also meant, was that anyone on your Wi-Fi network would be able to see what app you were casting from and the notification would appear during active use of the Chromecast. If you wanted to cast privately, there was no way since Google didn't include a way to remove the cast notification. That is, until today. Google has updated its Chromecast support page with new instructions on how to turn off the "Cast media control notification" that would...

Google family group integrates family offerings from its various services in one place
Google has launched a new website today that is meant to finally integrate all of the family group options from its various services. Google's been offering family group options (and pricing) for a few of its services, but managing those groups was done individually for each service. Not so anymore. The new Google family group page is where you can see what family group you're a member of - or create one if you aren't in any. Keep in mind that a family group can have a maximum of six members, and you can only be in one of these at a time. Oh, and switching is only allowed once every 12...
Snapchat introduces Custom Stories, which you can create together with your friends
Not to be outdone by Instagram, Snapchat is announcing a new feature of its own today.

Samsung Gear S3 units in the US are now receiving new features through software update
Samsung is now pushing a new firmware update to the Gear S3 units sold in the US. For now this was only spotted on a Gear S3 frontier unit purchased from AT&T, but we assume the Gear S3 classic will get it too - as well as watches sold by other carriers. This should all happen in the following days. After you apply the update you'll be running Tizen 2.3.2.3, which is the same one that was rolled out to Gear S3 smartwatches in Europe back in March. The new software version ends in BQD4, though, unlike the BQC5 release that made it to the EU. Once your watch is running the new software,...
Instagram adds location and hashtag Stories in the Explore section
Over the past few months or so, Instagram has been relentlessly adding new features almost every week. Sure, most of those have been 'inspired' by Snapchat, but it's still interesting to note how it doesn't seem to want to slow down in this respect. Case in point: today the Facebook-owned social network has added two more features - location and hashtag Stories can now be found in the Explore section. When you enter the Explore tab, you'll see a Story ring at the top, showcasing Stories that are happening near you. These come from people who have used location stickers. When you search...
iPhone 9 to come in 5.28" and 6.46" sizes, both with OLED screens, rumor claims
No, the title doesn't contain a typo. No, the iPhone 8 hasn't magically become official already. Still, the rumor mill has considered that it's time to move on from discussing Apple's tenth anniversary smartphone. So, just for today, let's talk about the iPhone 9. The one that will come in 2018. Apparently this will be offered in two sizes, both sporting much bigger touchscreens than we've gotten used to. The small iPhone 9 will come with a 5.28" display, while the larger model will accommodate a 6.46" panel. In both cases, the screen tech used will be OLED, and the supplier of the...

This is what the 10.5-inch iPad Pro will look like
We already know that Apple is getting ready to release a 10.5" iPad Pro, to sit between the already available 9.7 and 12.9 Pro's on the market, and we have a good guess that Apple will do it at its developer conference between June 5 and 9.

Global smartphone sales jumped to 380 million devices in Q1 2017. The number marks a 9% rise from the same period in 2016, according to analyst company Gartner. Samsung and Apple keep their top positions, but Chinese companies Huawei, Oppo, and vivo are accountable for almost a quarter of all global sales.
