Android Auto users still facing wireless connectivity issue
Google is known for developing reliable products for users; the Android ecosystem is so user-friendly that it also gives more flexibility as well; however, in the range of devices available in the ecosystem, there are some products that could be performing better. We are here talking about Android Auto; the app was designed to give a platform that makes it easy to interact with the car infosystems, but instead of making it more useful, it is creating new problems with new updates.
The latest version of Android Auto cuts the wireless connection to the car
According to some users reporting on the support forum, the last couple of updates with version numbers 9.5 and 9.6 are creating problems for the users who use the service wirelessly; after these updates, they cannot connect their smartphones to the car screen.
Several users also claim that they have also tried some basic ways like clearing the app data and cache, force stop the app, and resetting the network and Bluetooth connection, which sometimes works in these types of issues, but nothing worked.
At present, there is only one possible solution available you can only do to downgrade the app to the earlier version before 9.5 or 9.6. It is also recommended to deactivate the automatic update function so it will be stable at the same version. As of now, Google doesn’t state anything officially about this matter, but we hope the company will release a new update for the app to correct its mistake.

Generally, when a company doesn’t publish a new changelog for the application, it indicates that the update may not bring any significant changes for the application. Therefore, the latest update for Samsung Enhance X is expected to receive some internal changes that could enhance the overall stability of the application.
If you are having any issues while using any feature of the application, then it is recommended that you keep the application up-to-date. To take advantage of the new update, you can check for it via the Galaxy Store. To go directly to the page, click here.

Meanwhile, for the video content, it allows the use of single-take, long exposures.

Samsung has rolled out a new update for the stock camera application, which comes with the firmware version number 11.0.02.95. The latest update does not introduce any new changelog, instead reiterating the previous one that addressed the issue of photos breaking when repeatedly shooting after applying a filter. But it is expected that the company will surely provide some improvements to the functioning of the application.
How to install
The Samsung Camera application update is now live for Galaxy devices, which are running on Android 14.

YouTube is rolling out a new jump-ahead AI-powered feature for its users. Under this functionality, users will be able to skip the video by double-tapping to the most-viewed part of the video.
Previously, when you double-tapped on the video in the right half of the screen, it forwarded the video to 10 seconds. Now, to make this function more useful, YouTube has used AI, which is able to analyze the most-viewed part of the video and redirect users directly.
According to the information, the new facility will be limitedly available to users who have joined the premium memberships. It is worth noticing that YouTube has had this functionality for a long time. A few days ago, when the company had previewed this capability, it suggested a small experiment.
As this is currently in the initial stage, the functionality is only available for US users and those working on the English videos. According to the information, the jump-ahead feature is available for users who join the premium membership before June 1. However, after passing the experiment phase, it may be available for every user.
A couple of months ago, YouTube brought the Picture in Picture (PiP) feature for free to users. Initially, it was limited to US users, but it is expected to be available to other countries’ users. To get the latest functionality, users should always keep the YouTube update.
