Samsung phones no longer support Microsoft Office-inspired Hancom Office app
Hancom Office, better known as Hancom Space, is an office application that lets users view and edit documents created by Hancom Office or Microsoft Office easily on Android devices. With full compatibility with Microsoft Office documents, it delivers a PC-like user experience found in Hancom Office for Windows.
So far, the Hancom Office app supports Android smartphones and tablets but it looks like that the company is going to make a big change in its compatibility very soon. According to the information, a Samsung smartphone user reached the company and asked to provide a list of devices compatible with the Hancom Office app.
According to a Galaxy S21 owner, when he tried to download the Hancom Office, which exclusively available for select Galaxy devices through the Galaxy Store, he found that his device is not compatible with this popular application because its availability depends on the phone maker and app developers choice.
Following the report, Sammy Fans reached the Galaxy Store in charge, and after the consultation with the developer of Hancom, the company official said that the Hancom Office app will be provided only for tablets, and confirmed that the newly launched devices such as the Galaxy S21 series are not compatible for it.
Hancom Office
On Hancom Office, users can view around all types of documents including HWP and PDF, even without signing up. Moreover, you will be able to use all editing features and functions by purchasing Hancom services on a monthly or quarterly basis.

Google revamps Circle to Search with app drawer and chunkier design
Google has introduced a new design for its Circle to Search feature, which lets you quickly search and take action on things you see on your screen. This revamped interface is a part of the Google app version 15.45.43.ve.arm64 beta update, bringing some noticeable changes.
The update brings a new look to the Circle to Search interface. The design is now chunkier, with a rounded box around the search bar and buttons to encase the elements.
The most important change is the replacement of the Translate and Google Lens buttons with an app drawer button, spotted by Android Authority. This means that instead of having those features directly in the search bar, you’ll need to tap the app drawer to access them. This change comes after Google removed the Lens button from the search bar a few weeks ago.
While some users might find the extra tap annoying, the app drawer helps Google make space for more features in the future. The search bar has already been getting smaller over time, and the app drawer helps prevent it from being messy.
Moreover, the Music Search button stays in its place next to the search bar, but users are hoping Google will allow them to customize which shortcuts they want to show.
The new design may take some time to get used to, but it looks like Google is making room for even more features in the future.
Aside from this, Google is also reportedly working on a feature that will let you use Circle to Search with videos, though it’s still unclear which platforms will support this feature.

Google Authenticator 7.0 introduces new way to copy 2FA codes
Google has just recently released a version 7.0 update of its Google Authenticator app, which arrives with some helpful changes that make using the app simpler and more user-friendly. Along with a fresh look, there are some changes to how you manage your 2FA (Two-factor authentication) codes on Google Authenticator.
Previously, you had to long-press on the six-digit code to copy it to your clipboard. Now, with the new version, a single tap on the code is all you need to copy it. While long-pressing still works sometimes, tapping is the new default way to copy codes to make it faster and easier.
The app’s design has also been updated with a fresh update. In the 6.0 version, you had to long-press to access options like editing, deleting, or rearranging your accounts.
In version 7.0, you can now swipe right to rename an account, swipe left to delete it, and drag to reorder your accounts. These 7.0 changes make it quicker and more intuitive to manage your list of 2FA codes on the Google Authenticator app.
Moreover, the update also includes Dynamic Color support, which allows the app to match your phone’s theme for a more personalized look. It also adds a Privacy Screen for additional security.
Furthermore, the update brings a new account search feature to make it easier to find specific codes if you have many accounts. The update is available on Play Store, you can install it now to enjoy fresh changes.
