Welcome to the 463rd edition of Android Apps Weekly. Here are the big headlines from the last week:
- Google enabled Matter on Google, Nest, and Android products this last week. It’s a pretty big deal. Matter is a smart home connectivity standard that aims to make smart home tech much easier to use. We’ve talked about Matter all year, and it’s nice to see it launch.
- Apple might allow app sideloading on iPhones in the future. Reports suggest that Apple is working on the feature as we speak. That’s a huge deal because it would allow for third-party app stores and a whole new side of iOS for users to explore. We already have that on Android, but it may not be a unique feature for much longer.
- Google announced its favorite Chrome extensions this year. There were no ad-blocking extensions on it, which we believe are on many people’s favorite Chrome extensions. That said, Google listed Tango, SwiftRead, Liner, Compose AI, Visbug, and Check US Visa Slots. There were a few others as well. Hit the link to learn more.
- Samsung Good Lock is rolling out to more countries. The new markets include Europe, Latin America, and a couple of Asian countries. It’s a good start, but there are still some rather large parts of the world without it, including all of Africa. You can get the full list of countries in the article linked.
- Google is planning to phase out Manifest V2 from Google Chrome. It would undo ad block if they did so on time. However, Google is delaying the phase-out of Manifest V2 for a little while longer. The company says it’s to help ease some migration challenges to Manifest V3. Hit the link to learn more details.
