Prompt to use Android Messages for Web is starting to hit more phones now

-


The announcement last week of Android Messages for the Web was a welcome surprise, and while it's been rolling out slowly since then it seems this afternoon the floodgates have really opened with many reports coming in of the prompt to use it now appearing.

The prompt to use Android Messages on the web pops up at the bottom of your Messages screen, once you see that you should see an option to use Messages for Web in the settings (three dot menu) in the top right of your screen.

Android Messages for Web works much the same as Allo for Web did. You scan the QR code on the messages.android.com web interface, then you should start seeing your messages in the web view. As you can see, your messages appear in a panel down the left, with a wider panel on the right where you can create new replies, which includes options to attach emoji, stickers and of course pictures for MMS.

I'm not a massive user of Text Messaging, with instant messaging clients like Telegram much more of interest to me. That said there are many people who live and die by the text message, and it's still the most cross platform way to message most people. If you've been waiting on Android Messages for Web check out your settings menu and see if you have the option to use it now.

[Update: More details from internal email] Essential reportedly cancels second phone, puts itself up for sale

According to Bloomberg , Essential, an up-and-coming phone manufacturer, is reportedly calling it quits, canceling its second phone and putting out a "For Sale" sign. The company, founded by Android's creator Andy Rubin, has supposedly hired an outside firm to advise it on a potential sale, with one suitor allegedly showing interest. The Essential Phone, or the PH-1, was a phone focused on physical beauty, despite the deep notch at the top of the display for the front camera and sensors. Despite its problems, it gained a small but loyal following, many of whom were anxiously waiting for Essential's sophomore phone (PH-2?). Those dreams look to be crushed now, with Rubin's company canceling its second device. Bloomberg 's source claims that the engineers, some of whom came from Apple and Google, will likely be a part of the sale, but Essential is still trying to make a decision.  Bloomberg  also reports that Essential is pivoting to the smart home

TCL-owned alcatel has unveiled its newest flagship offering today, the 5V. The phone comes with a 6.2-inch 19:9 notched display with 720x1500 resolution, an 88% screen-to-body ratio, and 2.5D Dragontrail glass on top. The alcatel 5V has a dual 12 MP + 2 MP rear camera system with dual-tone LED flash, with the secondary sensor being used only for depth information, enabling bokeh effects. The main snapper has 1.25μm pixels and 1/2.8" size, and the camera software can do things like AI scene detection, burst shot, HDR, real-time bokeh, and it also contains electronic image stabilization and Google Lens (which tries to identify the things you're pointing the camera at). The selfie shooter is an 8 MP unit with 1.12μm pixels and 1/4" sensor size. Of course you get stuff such as face beautification, real-time photo and video filters, and even something called Social Mode (with Instant Collage, Photo Booth, and Easy Share).
