Youtube brings more feature for Premium users
Subscribers to YouTube’s premium, ad-free experience may now enjoy some significant new benefits. Following the release of a new AI tool that produces songs utilizing the voices of famous artists, the features mostly center around AI. Ad-free, offline, and background YouTube video viewing is available with YouTube Premium. Recently, they introduced capabilities that enable you to queue films to watch in “enhanced” 1080p resolution on phones and tablets. Improved bitrates for Android, the web, and smart TVs are now available on YouTube with the new “1080p Premium” quality introduced by Google.
New experimental AI conversations centered around YouTube comments are among the newly announced features, which were revealed on the YouTube site. The business adds that new communication capabilities driven by AI may be tried out by premium users while they watch movies, starting today. The concept is an AI assistant that works within the video playback interface, suggesting relevant material and responding to queries, among other things. It is “only available in English to a limited number of YouTube Premium members in the United States on Android devices” at this point.
Conversational AI tool:
With the intention of improving your viewing experience even further, YouTube has introduced a new experimental conversational AI tool that Premium subscribers may be among the first to test out. Consider this your all-in-one tool that may provide information, recommend relevant material, and more without interfering with your playing. For now, this function is exclusive to English-speaking YouTube Premium subscribers in the US using Android smartphones.
To use the tool, touch “Ask” beneath selected movies. Ask questions regarding the film or choose a recommended prompt. If you sign up immediately, you can get one of the few available seats.
Premium Badges: These are labels that can be obtained by using the Premium features and accomplishing new objectives. They are located on the page devoted to the benefits of the subscription and function as a kind of private trophy case.
On tablets and smart TVs, YouTube Premium subscribers may now benefit from the feature that allows them to pick up where a video stopped off. This feature, which was previously available on smartphones and the online version, has now been expanded to guarantee that you never miss a second of your preferred films on any platform.
Last but not least, it is important to note that only users with a current YouTube Premium membership, which costs 11.99 euros per month, are able to access this feature.
Samsung has released the Galaxy Enhance-X’s new update. The company doesn’t attach any specific changelog for the application; therefore, it looks like a standard improvement update, but after the installation, we got to know about some new changes in editing sections. Let’s take a deeper look.
Samsung Galaxy Enhance-X: new changes
Samsung has rolled out the new update for the Enhance-X with version number 2.0.89. With the latest version, users will get some new interface changes, including a new redesign of the editing suggestions and a new set of icons.
When you open a picture or video in the Galaxy Enhance-X, it automatically analyzes the content with its AI and suggests to you a set of options that you can use to easily edit. Despite the redesign of these options, the series of suggestions has not introduced any additional innovation.
Along with the icon changes, the company has also changed the order of them. The company has moved the ‘Fix lens distortion’ option from the section that offers the option of real test adjustment image or cropping to the secure related faces.

WhatsApp is one of the popular social media giants that is commonly used worldwide; however, at the same time that WhatsApp became popular gradually, several social media applications arrived, but they didn’t survive in the market. WhatsApp, with its convenient features, has a strong consumer base and is successful in providing better services. However, users who use the beta application sometimes get issues, like recently encountered annoying bug issues while opening the documents.
According to the reports, several users have faced an issue where they are unable to download the document file. Specifically, when they tap on the download button, it reacts as if the application is out of network and shows a pop-up message that says, “The download was unable to complete. Please try again later.” It is worth noticing that the issue only appears for beta testers. So a stable user will not get any trouble from this issue.
Usually, this type of pop-up message appears when you are not connected to the proper network. But according to the information, several beta testers are facing this issue while on a strong network. Most probably, it might be some server-side problem with interpreting the stable network.
However, WhatsApp has resolved the issue with the latest update, version 2.24.10.15. So if you are also facing the same issue, then try to update the application to the latest version. To do that, go to the Google Play Store, then search for WhatsApp, and tap on the update button.
Google already made the Android 15 Beta 1.2 available to download for Pixel owners and is gradually but actively moving towards the stable version. The stable version of Android 15 could offer more access to third-party developers for Digital Wellbeing tools.
A few years ago, Google introduced its Digital Wellbeing application in 2019, this helps users balance their digital lives by tracking how much time they spend on each application. It includes various tools such as Dashboard, App timers, and more.
Third-party developers have been limited in how they can use the digital wellbeing tools, but that may be changing with Android 15. For now, third-party applications can only make Do Not Disturb schedules using Android’s Digital Wellbeing APIs, but in the scenarios where Android 15 lands by the end of this year, they will get the power to more fully make use of the tools Google has been keeping to itself.
Particularly, third-party applications will be permitted to make changes to the screen, for instance, by turning off the Always On Display or authorizing Dark Mode. Granted, developers have acknowledged workarounds to enable those features, but now it appears that those functionalities will have official support, a report says.
If this report came true, then users would have a wider variety of applications to manage screen time and focus at their convenience, instead of relying simply on Google’s built-in tools. However, a few core functionalities; for instance, disabling touch and adjusting brightness will possibly remain restricted. It will be interesting to see the exact change in the stable version.
