Would indeed be cool to have this. Using hot corners on my Mac pretty often.

Android may soon get its own version of Apple’s Hot Corners on Macs
Google is working on a new feature called "Actions Corners", and it could be the Android equivalent to Apple's Hot Corners feature on Macs.

Built a technical POC for message archiving based on Android Enterprise APIs (via Google Messages). Includes individual message backup, CSV export, and media export aligned to message ID, all up to a Directus instance.

Pretty happy with this!

I pushed a few improvements to the system apps database recently, making filtering a lot more reliable 💪

If you're feeling generous, and/or feel this is a project you might use in future, submitting system apps from a device takes under 5 minutes ⏱️

Personally not a fan of the microwaved taste you get with this. Oven heating is a better choice.

While we’re banning books…

Finland is teaching children in school how to recognize fake news and propaganda as part of critical thinking and civic responsibility. Some of this will seem very familiar.

Be. Like. Finland.

😱 My Fairphone 4 stopped accepting a USB cable last week.

The connector had broken away from its little modular PCB, and that was the end of that; it was all loosey-goosey in there 🪿

Because it's a Fairphone the part I need to get it up and running again was but a few clicks and a UPS van away 🚚

I pushed a small update to Managed Info this evening!

There were a couple of bug fixes, but the headline is Google Play System Update version is now available under device details 🙌

A few months ago I shipped a bug that broke a feature that users hit at app launch. When fixing it, I added a feature flag to disable that feature entirely if needed.

I had to use that feature flag today. Use feature flags, my friends.
