Here's a first look at the Google Personal Safety app's Expressive redesign (APK teardown)
Hadlee Simons / Android Authority TL;DR An Android Authority teardown has revealed plenty of visual changes coming to the Personal Safety app. These changes are in line with Google's Material 3 Expressive design language and cover the emergency contacts menus. This redesign will likely be exclusive to Android 16 QPR1 for now. Google's Personal Safety app is a one-stop shop for emergencies, allowing you to quickly get help, record video, and much more. Now, it looks like Google is bringing some changes to the app in line with its Material 3 Expressive visual style. Authority Insights story on Android Authority. Discover You're reading anstory on Android Authority. Discover Authority Insights for more exclusive reports, app teardowns, leaks, and in-depth tech coverage you won't find anywhere else. An APK teardown helps predict features that may arrive on a service in the future based on work-in-progress code. However, it is possible that such predicted features may not make it to a public release. We dug into a recent version of the Personal Safety app for Android (version 2025.06.12.772866699.3-release) and discovered that it's getting plenty of visual changes. These changes specifically apply to the emergency contacts menus. Check out the screenshots below. Current Current Current New New New There are quite a few Material 3 Expressive changes here, such as bold headers, info fields encased in a white box with dividing lines between each field, and redesigned toggles showing an X or tick. The Add contact option has also changed from a text-based field to a pill-shaped green button. Another notable change, seen in the final screenshot, is that Google will offer a three-dot button for each contact. Tapping this button lets you quickly remove or reorder a contact. By contrast, the current UI gives you an 'X' icon next to each contact so you can quickly remove them. However, reordering your contacts requires you to tap the Reorder button at the top of the page, which then opens a new screen altogether. So the new UI might not be as convenient for removing contacts, but it seems more seamless for reordering them. It's worth noting that this Expressive design will likely be exclusive to Android 16 QPR1, at least for now. That's because this Emergency Contacts functionality is also integrated into the core Android settings via the Safety and Emergency section, and Google is updating this section for Android 16 QPR1. Nevertheless, this would be the latest Google app to get a fresh coat of paint ahead of Android 16 QPR1. These visual changes have already started rolling out to Chrome, Google Messages, the Phone app, and more. Got a tip? Talk to us! Email our staff at Email our staff at news@ .

NotebookLM Is the Perfect AI Tool for School or Work. Here's What It Does
If there was a single AI tool that I would wholeheartedly recommend to anyone, it would be NotebookLM by a mile. It's true that it's not a standard chatbot like Gemini (though it is powered by Google's AI) or ChatGPT, but this tool can find its place into most people's live's in one form or another. NotebookLM breaks down complex subjects into an easy-to-understand format, assists in brainstorming new ideas and other helpful student and worker driven features. There's now a mobile app for iOS and Android that makes it easy to use on the go. It keeps getting better without feeling like it's becoming overstuffed with features just for the sake of it. I appreciated the concept of what NotebookLM could do when it was first announced and enjoyed casually tinkering with it, but experiencing it in the real world -- and at a time when I needed a tool like it to exist -- solidified how awesome NotebookLM really is to me. This is easily my favorite AI tool and use it nearly every day. Everything Announced at Google I/O 2025 Everything Announced at Google I/O 2025 Click to unmute Video Player is loading.

Everything Announced at Google I/O 2025 NotebookLM isn't just Google Keep stuffed with AI, nor is it just a chatbot that can take notes. It's both and neither. Instead of asking questions to Gemini, only for it to find an answer from the ether of the internet, NotebookLM will only search through the sources that you provide it. It's a dead simple concept that feels like one of the most practical uses of AI, giving way to the perfect study buddy for classes or work. And Google didn't stop there. Now it can do so much more, and will reward your poking around to see what it can do for you. And features like its impressive Audio Overviews have since trickled down into Gemini itself, allowing it to be used in a much wider set of Google's products. Below, I'll cover some of NotebookLM's most interesting features (including the newly announced ones) and how it became one of my favorite AI tools. For more, check out Google's smart glasses plans with AndroidXR. What is NotebookLM? NotebookLM is a Gemini-powered note-taking and research assistant tool that can be used in a multitude of ways. It all starts with the sources you feed it, whether they're webpage URLs, YouTube videos or audio clips, allowing you to pull multiple sources together into a cohesive package and bring some organization to your scattered thoughts or notes. The most obvious use case for NotebookLM is using it for school or work. Think of it -- you've kept up with countless classes and typed notes down for every one and even perhaps recorded some lectures. Sifting through everything individually can eventually get you to some semblance of understanding, but what if you could get them to work together? Once you've uploaded your sources, Gemini will get to work to create an overall summary of the material. From there, you can begin asking Gemini questions about specific topics on the sources and information from the sources will be displayed in an easy-to-understand format. This alone may be enough for some people just looking to get the most out of their notes, but that's really just scratching the surface. Available for desktop and mobile NotebookLM has a three-panel layout. Screenshot by Blake Stimac/CNET NotebookLM has been available for a while now on the desktop and is broken into a three-panel layout, consisting of Source, Chat and Studio panels. Both the Source and Studio panels are collapsible, so you can have a full-screen chat experience if you prefer. While the Source and Chat panels are pretty self-explanatory, the Studio panel is where magic can happen (though some of the features can also be created directly from the Chat panel). This is where you can get the most out of your NotebookLM experience. The NotebookLM app: The Philosopher's Stone for data, in your pocket The mobile app for Android and iOS launched the day before Google I/O 2025. Screenshots by Blake Stimac/CNET Those familiar with the desktop experience will feel right at home with the new mobile apps for iOS and Android. The streamlined app allows you to switch between the Source, Chat and Studio panels via a menu at the bottom. When you go to the view that shows all of your notebooks, you'll see tabs for Recent, Shared, Title and Downloaded. While not everything is on the app yet, it's likely just a matter of time before it matches the web version's full functionality. Audio Overviews If you didn't hear about NotebookLM when it was first announced, you likely did when Audio Overviews were released for it. Once you have at least one source uploaded, you can then opt to generate an Audio Overview, which will provide a "deep dive" on the source material. These overviews are created by none other than Gemini, and it's not just a quick summary of your material in audio format -- it's a full-blown podcast with two "hosts" that break down complex topics into easy-to-understand pieces of information. They're incredibly effective, too, often asking each other questions to dismantle certain topics. The default length of an Audio Overview will vary depending on how much material there is to go over and the complexity of the topic -- though I'm sure there are other factors at play. In my testing, a very short piece of text created a five-minute audio clip, whereas two lengthier and more dense Google Docs documents I uploaded created an 18-minute Overview. If you want a little more control on the length for your Audio Overview, you're in luck. Announced in a blog post during Google I/O earlier this month, users now have three options to choose from: shorter, default and longer. This is perfect if you either want to have a short and dense podcast-like experience of if you want to get into the nitty gritty on a subject with a longer Audio Overview. You can interact with your AI podcasters It gets even better. Last December, NotebookLM got a new design and new ways to interact with Audio Overviews. The customize button allows you to guide the conversation so that key points are covered. Type in your directive and then generate your Audio Overview. Now, if you want to make this feature even more interactive, you can choose the Interactive mode, which is still in beta, to join the conversation. The clip will play, and if you have a particular question in response to something that's said, you can click the join button. Once you do, the speakers will pause and acknowledge your presence and ask you to chime in with thoughts or questions, and you'll get a reply. I wanted to try something a little different, so I threw in the lyrics of a song as the only source, and the AI podcast duo began to dismantle the motivations and emotions behind the words. I used the join feature to point out a detail in the lyrics they didn't touch on, and the two began to dissect what my suggestion meant in the context of the writing. They then began linking the theme to other portions of the text. It was impressive to watch: They handled the emotional weight of the song so well, and tactfully at that. Mind Maps Generating a Mind Map is just one of several powerful features from NotebookLM. Google/Screenshot by CNET I'd heard interesting things about NotebookLM's Mind Map feature, but I wanted to go in blind when I tried it out, so I did a separate test. I took roughly 1,500 words of Homer's Odyssey and made that my only source. I then clicked the Mind Map button, and within seconds, an interactive and categorical breakdown of the text was displayed for me to poke around in. Many of the broken-down sections had subsections for deeper dives, some of which were dedicated to single lines for dissection. Clicking on a category or end-point of the map will open the chat with a prefilled prompt. I chose to dive into the line, "now without remedy," and once clicked, the chat portion of NotebookLM reopened with the prefilled prompt, "Discuss what these sources say about Now without remedy, in the larger context of [the subsection] Alternative (worse)." The full line was displayed, including who said it, what it was in response to and any motivations (or other references) for why the line was said in the text. Study guides and more If the combination of all that Audio Overviews and Mind Maps could do sounds like everything a student might need for the perfect study buddy, NotebookLM has a few other features that will solidify it in that place. Study guides After you've uploaded a source, you can create a quick study guide based on the material that will automatically provide a document with a quiz, potential essay questions, a glossary of key terms and answers for the quiz at the bottom. And if you want, you can even convert the study guide into a source for your notebook. FAQs Whether you're using it for school or want to create a FAQ page for your website, the NotebookLM button generates a series of potentially common questions based on your sources. Timeline If you're looking for a play-by-play sort of timeline, it's built right in. Creating a timeline for the Odyssey excerpt broke down main events in a bulleted list and placed them based on the times mentioned in the material. If an event takes place at an unspecified time, it will appear at the top of the timeline, stating this. A cast of characters for reference is also generated below the timeline of events. Briefing document The briefing document is just what it sounds like, giving you a quick snapshot of the key themes and important events to get someone up to speed. This will include specific quotes from the source and their location. A summary of the material is also created at the bottom of the document. How NotebookLM really 'sold' me I already really liked NotebookLM's concept and execution during its 1.0 days, and revisiting the new features only strengthened my appreciation for it. My testing was mostly for fun and to see how this tool can flex, but using it when I "needed" it helped me really get an idea of how powerful it can be, even for simple things. During a product briefing, I did my typical note-taking: Open a Google Doc, start typing in fragmented thoughts on key points, and hope I could translate what I meant when I needed to refer back to them. I knew I would also receive an official press release, so I wasn't (too) worried about it, but I wanted to put NotebookLM to the test in a real-world situation when I was using it for real -- and not just tinkering, when nearly anything seems impressive when it does what you tell it to. I decided to create a new notebook and make my crude notes (which looked like a series of bad haikus at first glance) the only source, just to see what came out on the other end. Not only did NotebookLM fill in the blanks, but the overall summary read almost as well as the press release I received the following day. I was impressed. It felt alchemical -- NotebookLM took some fairly unintelligible language and didn't just turn it into something passable, but rather, a pretty impressive description. Funny enough, I've since become a more thorough note-taker, but I'm relieved to know I have something that can save the day if I need it to. Video Overviews are on the way Another feature that was announced during Google I/O was Video Overviews, and it's exactly what it sounds like. There's currently no time frame outside of "coming soon" from the blog post, but it should be a good way to get a more visual experience from your notebooks. We'd previously heard that Video Overviews might be on the way, thanks to some sleuthing from Testing Catalog. The article also mentioned that the ability to make your notebooks publicly available and view an Editor's Picks list of notebooks will eventually make their way to NotebookLM. The Editors Picks feature has yet to rear its head, but you can indeed now share notebooks directly or make them publicly available for anyone to access. While we're waiting on View Overviews, here's a preview of one. If you need more from NotebookLM, consider upgrading Most people will likely never have the need to pay for NotebookLM, as the free version is robust enough. But if you're using it for work and need to be able to add more sources or the option to share your notebook with multiple people, NotebookLM Plus is worth considering. It gives you more of everything while introducing more customization, additional privacy and security features as well as analytics. It's worth noting that NotebookLM Plus will also be packaged in with Google's new AI subscriptions. For more, don't miss Google's going all-in on AI video with Flow and Veo 3.

Someone brought Flappy Bird back to Android, but there's a good reason you shouldn't download it
Joe Maring / Android Authority If, like me, you had an Android phone in the 2010s, you almost certainly played Flappy Bird. And all these years later, I still occasionally find myself itching to play a few rounds. Unfortunately, playing the original Flappy Bird in 2025 is all but impossible. But thanks to one developer, Flappy Bird is back. Recently, a new developer got the attention of the r/Android subreddit by announcing they had reverse-engineered the original Flappy Bird to run on a 64-bit Java platform, meaning you can download and play Flappy Bird just as you remember on a modern Android phone. It's a pretty cool project, and I was almost ready to download the app myself. However, after taking a closer look, I decided not to download this new version of Flappy Bird, and you probably shouldn't either. It's 2025 — do you still miss Flappy Bird? 0 votes Yes NaN % No NaN % Why you shouldn't download this new Flappy Bird game Joe Maring / Android Authority There are a couple of red flags with this Flappy Bird app, the first of which is what the developer didn't do. The GitHub page includes the APK file for downloading the game on your phone, but there's no source code available. In other words, you're being asked to download an APK onto your Android phone without being able to see what's happening behind the scenes. And that's a problem. Downloading APK files isn't inherently bad or harmful, but you should only do so from trusted developers, who typically publish the APK source code so you can confirm the file doesn't contain anything nefarious. But that didn't happen here. Not only did the developer not publish their source code, but this Flappy Bird project is the first thing they've ever published to GitHub, meaning they don't have any previous vettable projects. Another red flag is that multiple people have reported finding a Trojan file (specifically, 'Trojan:Script/Wacatac.B!ml') in security scans of the APK. The developer says this is 'likely' a false positive and that 'virus scans are clear for most users,' but it still adds more concern to an already dubious application. And as if that wasn't enough, a few hours after I started writing this, the entire project was pulled from GitHub, with the APK file now being hosted on MediaFire. That, friends, is not a good look. To recap, what we're dealing with is: A developer with no previous development history. An APK file with no accompanying source code. Multiple reports of a Trojan file in the application. The project being removed from GitHub. The APK now being distributed via MediaFire. Joe Maring / Android Authority There are a couple of ways to look at this. On the one hand, it's entirely possible that this Flappy Bird game is perfectly harmless. There's nothing wrong with being a new developer, as everyone has to start somewhere. The person behind the Flappy Bird project has also stated that the source code is coming soon, and those Trojan warnings may actually be false positives, as the developer claims. But on the other hand, it's hard not to view this whole thing with a dose of skepticism. Why isn't the source code available? Will it really be released soon, and what if those Trojan warnings are legit? This Flappy Bird game might be perfectly fine, but there's also a possibility that it's not — and the GitHub removal makes that possibility even stronger. Until the source code is published, you're just putting yourself at unnecessary risk by downloading the APK. If it turns out that the game is legit, great! However, until we know for sure, I wouldn't download this on my Android phone at all. There's a better way to play Flappy Bird in 2025 If you're itching to play Flappy Bird on your Android phone right now, the good news is that you can — and you can do it safely. A couple of months ago, another version of Flappy Bird launched on Epic Games Store for Android. It's not a 1:1 recreation of the original game, but it gets pretty darn close while also adding some new features and game modes. Unlike this new Flappy Bird APK, you can trust that the one on the Epic Games Store has been vetted by Epic and is safe to have on your phone. At the end of the day, this is a good reminder to always be vigilant about downloading Android apps from unknown sources. You can never be too careful with these things, and no matter how much you like Flappy Bird, it's not worth potentially exposing yourself to something harmful just to play it.
