My app is coming along! It’s actually really fun crowdsourcing tips and ideas. I really love the Android Dev community! Ass suggested. I’ll be working on the pages next. Polish will come way later when it’s ready for publishing on the Play Store. 😁

This makes me even more excited about Google I/O!

Hey @manton, anyway I can get my email sign in authentication key request for my app escalated?

Initial Pixel 9a Photo Impressions

The Pixel 9a’s night mode on the front camera delivers a sharp image, pulling out good detail even when it’s dim. The lighting looks pretty balanced across the picture, which is a nice touch for low-light selfies

A group of people is rehearsing on a dimly lit stage in an auditorium with rows of empty seats.Two people are posing for a selfie indoors, each holding up a peace sign.A person is holding a blue tea bag label with the word Peppermint on it.A glass cup of tea and a couple of crackers on a napkin sit on a wooden table.

Here we go!

Pixel 9a is here and I’m putting my main SIM in it. Packing up my P9Pro and putting it on the shelf. I’m going to use the P9a for a few months to see how I like using a low-mid range Android device.

Comment anything you want me to focus on or “test”.

I’ve been on the hunt for a new computer and I’ve compared an Intel Ultra Code 7 HP x360, M1 Pro MacBook Pro, and the HP Elite Dragonfly Chromebook. I’m writing my full review, but here’s a quick snippet of my setup.

I’ve always wanted to put together a buying guide for the Google Pixel. After a 9 generations of Pixel phones, it’s pretty easy to know which Pixel is designed for what customer.

Check out the Ultimate Pixel 9 series Buying Guide.

Verizon brings satellite connectivity to Galaxy and Pixel devices

Verizon today announced a significant expansion of its satellite texting capabilities, enabling its customers to become the first in the US to send text messages to any other customer device via satellite when outside the reach of terrestrial cellular networks using select Android devices from the series of Samsung Galaxy S25 and Google Pixel 9 smartphones. Upgrades enabling this service start today and will continue over the next two weeks.

I’ve received it on my Pixel 9 Pro and though I don’t plan on going on any hikes up Mt. Everest and thankfully there aren’t really any extreme weather conditions happening in Arizona anytime soon. Thankfully I don’t think I’ll be needing to use this feature anytime soon. But it’s nice to have.

Pixel 9a might be delayed…

😬 The Pixel 9a was supposed to go on pre-order today, but Google delayed it until next month due to a 'component quality issue' affecting a 'small number' of devices.

Let's hope whatever issue they found is fixed before release!
