Google Gemini's Android app is almost ready to roll out this basic feature

Yahoo21-07-2025
Google Gemini is arguably one of the most popular AI chatbots you will find today. Its feature set has evolved significantly over the last couple of months, thanks to new features powered by recent inclusions like Veo 3. Similarly, Google also introduced a chat search feature in recent weeks, enabling users to search their chat history with Gemini, albeit only on the web and iOS. It now looks like the feature is almost ready to land on Android smartphones.
Thanks to screenshots posted by a Reddit user, we know the chat search functionality is on the way for Android. However, the feature was not live on a couple of Android devices I've checked, while comments below the Reddit thread also suggest it isn't widely available (via 9to5Google).

The search feature works exactly as you would expect, and helps you locate your older conversations with Gemini, provided you remember some of the keywords. Of course, if you use Gemini on an Apple iPhone, you can already search through your chats, which is somewhat frustrating for Android smartphone owners.

Meanwhile, if you can't wait to try out chat search on your Android phone, one of the simpler workarounds involves using the web version of the app, i.e., using Gemini (gemini.google.com) from your smartphone browser. It's identical to the experience you'd get on the app, but with the inclusion of some visual changes that haven't made it to the app yet.
Away from this search feature, Gemini is also working on giving its logo a bit of a glow-up to align with Google's brand identity. The updated logo currently appears in a couple of places across the Gemini app, including in the Google Play Store listing.
Newer reporting suggests Google is keen on bringing the familiar blue, red, green, and yellow colors to more elements of Gemini. Earlier this week, 9to5Google dug up evidence of the onscreen Gemini overlay (triggered by long-pressing the power button) incorporating these four colors for a more consistent experience.

Google Photos just tipped to launch most powerful AI photo editing tool ever — here's what we know

Google Photos is already one of the best photo editing apps around, offering incredible tools that make your bland photos look amazing. And it's about to get smarter. In the last few years, Google Photos has been injected with several AI-assisted photo editing tools, like Magic Editor and Magic Eraser, that make complex edits a breeze. But now, it looks like Google's could be working on its most powerful AI editing tool to date. This rumored 'Help me edit' feature, uncovered in code with Google Photos v7.38, appears to offer users the ability to give direct photo editing instructions through a text box. It seems to follow the same premise that already exists with the Reimagine feature that debuted with the Pixel 9 series last year — and eventually rolled out as a feature to Google Photos. What makes 'Help Me Edit' different is that users can explicitly give instructions on what photo editing changes they want to make, rather than how Reimagine simply replaces elements in a shot with something else. One example shown by Android Authority shows how you could change the color of a car from red to blue with a simple command in the text prompt. Anyone that deals heavily with photo editing can appreciate what this feature could do to streamline edits. It'll be interesting what other complex edits this AI-assisted feature could perform, like the ability to brighten up a subject without brightening the entire scene. Either way, this new way of editing in Google Photos with the help of AI could be a game changer. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. Google hasn't come out to say it's working on this feature, but it could also be introduced alongside its new Pixel 10 devices — which are tipped to be shown off at the next Made by Google event on August 20. Given how Google's been able to stay ahead of the curve around AI, this would be a ripe opportunity for it to introduce this Google Photos feature.

Hexnode UEM Partners With Quokka to Double Down on Mobile App Security for Businesses

- Meet Hexnode at Black Hat USA 2025, Booth 1360, Las Vegas | August 6-7 - Tune in to Hexnode Live for further updates on the Hexnode – Quokka partnership | August 19, 2025 SAN FRANCISCO, July 29, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Hexnode, the enterprise software division of Mitsogo Inc., has announced a strategic integration with Quokka, a leader in mobile app risk intelligence. This collaboration, now available for Android and iOS devices, enables organizations to manage their mobile applications via Hexnode, while leveraging Quokka's capabilities to continuously assess mobile apps for malicious behavior, security vulnerabilities, and privacy risks. "Hexnode has built a powerful, intuitive platform for managing mobile devices at scale," said Vijay Pawar, Senior Vice President of Product at Quokka. "By integrating Quokka's mobile app risk intelligence, we're able to instantly deliver continuous app risk monitoring at scale. Together, we're giving customers an integrated solution that closes the mobile app security gap." The growing prevalence in sideloaded, unauthorized apps and the lack of centralized app vetting have contributed to a global surge in mobile malware infections. A 2024 report by Recorded Future highlighted how infostealer malware embedded in mobile apps was used to steal credentials and bypass enterprise security systems. Further, according to the Gartner® report, "Through 2030, mobile application security failures will be the biggest mobile threat for enterprises." Hexnode's integration with Quokka addresses these challenges by integrating Quokka's mobile app risk intelligence directly into the Hexnode environment, closing the mobile app security gap and delivering a comprehensive, end-to-end mobile security solution. Key Capabilities of the Integration App Behaviour Monitoring Detects data exfiltration, app collusion, and malicious activity within the app repository. Agentless, Zero-Disruption Deployment Full app risk monitoring without additional apps or agents on devices — fast rollout, no user friction. Compliance & Security Alignment Supports enforcement of mobile security and privacy requirements for GDPR, HIPAA, MASVS, and Zero Trust models. Building on app-specific threat intelligence, the integration will soon enable secure distribution of applications based on behavioral anomaly analysis. Additionally, upcoming enhancements will support automated policy enforcement, allowing Hexnode to trigger automated actions such as blocking or flagging high-risk apps identified by Quokka. "This integration is a major step forward in securing enterprise mobility," said Paul Hettesheimer, VP Enterprise Sales (US) at Hexnode. "By combining Hexnode's robust application management with Quokka's real-time app risk intelligence, we're enabling organizations to proactively defend against mobile threats, without adding complexity or disrupting the user experience."
