Samsung Gaming Hub welcomes One UI 7 (Android 15) support in new update
Samsung Gaming Hub app allows users to create gamer profiles, explore new features, and more. At the moment, Samsung is making the Gaming Hub compatible with One UI 7, which is based on Android 15.
The company is rolling out an update for the Samsung Gaming Hub with version 7.1.02.4 via Galaxy Store. This update ensures that the app works well with the upcoming One UI 7, helping users transition smoothly to the new software.
This update prepares the Samsung Gaming Hub app for One UI 7 by providing support before its official release. Samsung is making its stock apps compatible with the upcoming interface, so they will continue to work when the update is available on smartphones.
The addition of Android 15 support suggests that Samsung will soon start the One UI 7 Beta update. Users can keep using their favorite apps without issues once the new operating system arrives as Samsung enhances app compatibility.
Besides improving compatibility, the update fixes issues that users encountered in the previous version. It also enhances some features to improve the overall experience on Galaxy devices.
To install the Samsung Gaming Hub version 7.1 update, users can go to the Galaxy Store app, select the Menu option, and check for updates. A third-party app link is also available for those who prefer that option.
Samsung plans to release One UI 7 for developers by the end of the year, followed by a rollout for regular users with flagship phones. The stable update will arrive with the Galaxy S25 series next year. As we are in November 2024, the company is likely to open the Beta Program soon.
Google Quick Share is a tool for sharing files for Android, which might be on its way to iPhones and Macs. Recent updates to Google’s Nearby Connections hint at this possibility. A Google engineer also mentioned that changes could help Quick Share work better on Apple devices running iOS and macOS.
Currently, Quick Share allows Android users to share photos, videos, and links easily. It also has an app for Windows computers. If Quick Share becomes available for iOS and macOS, it would help people who use both Android and Apple devices share files more easily.
According to Mishaal Rahman (via AndroidAuthority), the source code of Nearby Connections available on GitHub indicates that Google might be working on a Quick Share app for iOS and macOS devices. Although there’s no clear evidence, a comment from a Google engineer suggests that it could be in the works.
Engineer comment: [For] iOS and macOS, the device name is already localized and generally works well for Quick Share purposes (i.e. “Niko’s MacBook Pro”), so avoid using the non-localized account name and device type concatenation.
But the question is would people use Quick Share on iPhones and Macs? Several users have both types of devices like an Android phone with a MacBook or an iPad or iPhone, so some might find it helpful. However, iPhone users often prefer the built-in sharing options.
If Google decides to launch Quick Share for Apple devices, it may mostly benefit Android users who also have Apple products. Stay tuned for more information.
