Chrome pioneer and Googler, François Beaufort, announced that Chrome OS Settings and Shortcuts apps will be appearing in the launcher alongside Android apps. Previously, the Settings app used to be accessed via the vertical 3-dot menu in the corner of most windows, or the avatar and icon-speckled menu to be bottom right. But since Android apps arrived on Chromebooks, the Settings menu has been made to look more like an Android, and this latest change only serve to prove it.

The new text messaging initiative will be called Chat. Chat will make use of Rich Communication Services (RCS), which will upgrade the texting experience by including features we are used to in other text messaging apps, such as, read receipts, support for photos and videos, and typing indicators. However, for the Chat feature to take off, Google would need the support of all Smartphone companies and network carriers to get RCS as the default texting method on Android devices. Currently, 11 smartphone manufacturers and 55 carriers around the world are supporting this feature. Samsung and Huawei plans on joining in the initiative.

Facebook announced that it will be limiting how it collects SMS data and call history from Android users. Facebook announcement comes on the heels of last month revelation that Facebook has been collecting Android users SMS data and call records for years by using what it calls an “opt-in feature”.

This information only came to light following the recent Cambridge Analytica scandal which shows that it has been obtaining people's personal information, including that of Facebook users. Facebook says it has reviewed the feature to confirm that it “does not collect the content of messages — and will delete all logs older than one year”. Facebook promise that in the future it will only obtain information that will help the feature. This is a welcome change since Facebook doesn't need all that info anyway. Let's hop
