  1. Creating a contextual now card? doesn't that mean that google app is actually reading the chats or the conversation to identify the term? privacy risk anyone?

  2. What's missing that Apple ios has had forever is os level of locking apps. In ios (without any 3rd party apps that could mess with battery, data etc.) You can lock your email, your text messaging client and just about any app that's included with the OS natively with a password. That's a huge flaw in android. If you give your phone to your friend or kid they can read anything they want with ease.

    I'm in no way a iphone fan, however many friends who have had apple and switched were quite alarmed at this basic item missing. These are not platform fans, just people who want a phone that's thought of everything. I recommended 3rd party free apps, some recommended from huge developer sites like XDA but all had disastrous results. One even putting on a fake "virus detected" install our av app to rid yourself!

    Also missing is the ability to see what app was installed at what time, windows does that. Would be super helpful as some apps and updates kill batteries. One time I updated google now and my battery went from 14 hours to 3 hours, deleted the update and back to 14. Had I done a batch updates or left it on auto update. I'd never know which ones killing it. Also should be a better software to monitor what's doing what. Like a firewall built at os level.

    There's room for way way more improvement, unfortunately it's coming at the expense of android getting bloated , which is nonsense.

    Google should be verifying apps in the store, if we want unverified then they should say unverified use at your own risk. This is a very rich company surely, appointing 50+ of thier thousands of employees to verify would not be a problem.

    I'm still choked that Gmail promises unlimited data in 2002 till recently, I trusted them now they've stopped my email and are demanding money for over 15 gb.

  3. Did you even try out Android M? It seems to me that you are just rattling off a summary of all the features Google announced at I/O.

    That's all fine, but don't refer to it as "my top 5," given that you provided basically no new angle on anything or even any of your own opinions (apart from briefly mentioning that you thought intent pop-ups were annoying). 

  4. Android M, the OS which strives more to be like iOS (with the exception of Now on Tap, which even then still has things similar to iOS)

  5. Control over app permissions is finally here. It only took them almost ten years to implement it (even tough it exist in other mobile OS) and will be available in, like, 3 % of the phones that are already on the market. It will most likely be very buggy too.

    I'm getting tired of Android's shit. Google and OEM's seem to be trying really hard to make the experience of using the OS as shitty as possible.

  6. Curious to see how app-linking would handle video download links. What if I'd like some videos to be downloaded while others are streamed by MX player?

  7. Anyone else want a software update purely committed to extending battery life and improving performance?

  8. i saw a post in which a google employee used a modified nexus 5 with a fingerprint sensor to demonstrate the new android pay service. 

  9. So since android pay will work best with Android M because of the fingerprint scanner. Does that include the S6 and the S6 Edge because Samsung already has scanner on their phone currently?
