Google conducted a press conference recently on July 27, 2022 where it made an important announcement regarding Google Maps’ new feature called Google Street View, which some people might not be aware of.
Google Maps, as we all know, is an application acts as the mapping service that gives you a satellite imagery street maps, aerial photography and panoramic view of the streets, traffic conditions, route planning for vehicles and foot.
All you need to do is to type the name of the area/place you want to go and it will show you the entire map from the start to the final destination. It is of great help if you want to locate a place or residence you’re visiting the first time.
Brief Description
Google Street View is an application through which viewers can search, view and navigate through numerous images of the city they are in at a panoramic street level format, which was denied permission to have a full scale launch back in 2016.
This left many people disappointed but the good news is that it is making a comeback in India as Google has finally decided to go ahead with the release of Google Street View feature as it announced at a New Delhi press conference.
Google has now joined hands with Tech Mahindra and Genesys to bring Street View to the entire nation where the images will be in 360-degree panoramic format but as of now it is confined to just 10 Indian cities where it will cover 150,000 km of roads in the initial stages.
However, Google has high hopes that Street View will be expanded to 50 cities by the end of 2022 and Tech Mahindra has taken the responsibility of deploying SUVs equipped with high tech cameras for crowded places as part of the initiative.
The cities chosen include Delhi, Mumbai, Amritsar, Chennai, Hyderabad, Pune, Nashik, Vadodara and Ahmednagar among others and the preparations are in full swing and going extremely well.
The local partners have been given the responsibility of collecting data as confirmed by Google, which makes India the first country to have Street View enabled by partners on primary basis.
Google Street View is quite easy to access where you just have to zoom up on the roads and tap the area you want to view/visit where you will find the many hotspots, landmarks and the locality that will give you an idea of the location.
Conclusion
Even though the Indian government had previously rejected rolling out the feature citing security reasons, Google has assured that there will be no compromise on national security and also announced its association with local authorities for enhancing road security and reducing traffic.
The traffic authorities will share the speed limit data for drivers that’ll be displayed by Google Maps beginning with Chandigarh and Bengaluru as Google is collaborating with the traffic police of both cities for optimizing traffic lights.
All in all, Google Street View is quite an interesting feature if you study about it in detail and will prove to be an asset for the mapping service by making it more user friendly.
Android 14 for TV promises a 20% reduction in storage usage and lower memory device optimization
Using a few handy tools, you can simply control your Android TV from a Windows PC. Or, if you use iOS, you may use an Airplay-compatible app to cast your iPhone to an Android TV. Google, however, has introduced a new “Connect” function that prevents local casting. In short, you can use your iPhone or Android phone to manage YouTube on an Android TV without bothering about being on the same Wi-Fi network.
Requirements for controlling youtube on your Android TV via your iPhone or Android
Your Android TV and smartphone running Android, iOS, or iPadOS must both use the same Google account to access YouTube.{}
Your Android TV and smartphone should both be running the most recent version of YouTube. Update the YouTube app to the most recent version to prevent any mischief, even if Google hasn’t specified a specific version for the ‘Connect’ functionality to function.
The casting option that you often utilize on other applications is not available with the ‘Connect’ feature. The background process is synchronizing your YouTube account. To enable the “Connect” feature, none of your devices must be connected to the local Wi-Fi network. You can still operate YouTube on Android even if you’re using mobile data and Wi-Fi on your TV.
Steps to control your Android TV using Connect Feature
First, make sure that both your Android TV and smartphone have the most recent version of the YouTube TV app installed (Android or iOS). Update all the applications, including YouTube, in the Play Store.
Launch the YouTube app on your Android TV next, and leave it open.
Next, launch the YouTube app on your iPhone or Android device. And a little pop-up window with the words “Watching YouTube on TV?” will display at the bottom. A “Connect” button will show up just beneath. Touch it.
Your iPhone or Android phone will be immediately linked to the Android TV. On YouTube, if anything is currently playing, the progress is also displayed. Keep in mind that you are connecting to YouTube on Android TV, not casting, using your YouTube account. You don’t absolutely need to be connected to the same Wi-Fi network.
In essence, you can now control every aspect of YouTube on Android TV from your iPhone or Android phone. You can now browse Youtube channels from your smartphone.

RBI Wants to Ban Cryptocurrencies; Says Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman
The Reserve Bank of India (RBI), according to Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, is in favor of outlawing cryptocurrencies because it is worrying about their destabilizing impact on monetary and fiscal stability.
“In light of the issues stated by RBI on the disruptive influence of cryptocurrencies on the financial and economic stability of a country, RBI has urged for the formulation of legislation on this sector. In response to a question from the Lok Sabha on this subject, she stated in a written response that RBI believes cryptocurrency should be illegal.
The finance minister stated that only global cooperation will allow for effective regulation on this subject. International cooperation is required to prevent systemic risk because cryptocurrencies are their nature borderless.
Therefore, any legislation for regulation or banning can only be effective after major international collaboration on assessing the risks and advantages and developing a uniform taxonomy and criteria, according to the expert.
In India, cryptocurrencies are currently unregistered, and the government is working to establish legislation to regulate them.
The RBI is concerned about cryptocurrencies due to their lack of intrinsic value and enigmatic nature. Numerous so-called crypto exchanges, most of which operate online and entice users through media advertising by guaranteeing extraordinary profits, haven’t helped the cause of cryptocurrencies in India.

According to her, the central bank also voiced its worries about the damaging impact of cryptocurrencies on the economy. “RBI stated that cryptocurrencies are not a form of currency since a central bank or government must issue every kind of money today.
Furthermore, the value of fiat currencies is supported by monetary policy and their legal tender status, but the value of cryptocurrencies is solely based on speculation and unfounded expectations of high returns, which will destabilize the monetary and fiscal stability of a nation, according to the expert.
Undoubtedly one of the most popular email services on the market, Google regularly enhances Gmail by introducing new features and adjustments. The Mountain View behemoth has made it possible to use Gmail without an active internet connection. Check out this page to learn how to use Gmail’s offline mode.
Guide on Using Gmail Offline (2022)
By going to mail.google.com, you can read, reply to, and search your Gmail messages even if you aren’t online.
Any email service, including Gmail, has to be connected to the internet in order for users to check their inbox, receive new emails, and reply to them. However, if the offline mail feature for Gmail is enabled, customers will be able to access virtually all of the capabilities of Google’s email service even without an internet connection. Checking their mailbox, reading unread emails, and even sending new emails to recipients will all be possible.
Therefore, follow the instructions below to get started with Gmail’s offline mode immediately.
Access the settings by clicking the cog symbol in the top right corner of your Gmail account while it is open on a Mac, Linux, or Windows computer. Choose “See all settings” from the pop-up menu to access the options menu.
Choose the “Offline” tab from the top navigation bar.
Check the “Enable offline mail” box on this screen to activate Gmail’s offline mode. Additionally, you may select the feature’s preferred settings.
Click the “Save Changes” button at the bottom when finished.
Gmail will automatically sync your most recent emails for offline access and preserve them for a certain amount of time, ranging from 7 days to 90 days when the offline mode is on.
It is important to note that sending an email in offline mode will not really get the message to the intended recipient. As an alternative, it will save the written email in the “Outbox” folder and send it as soon as the user is connected again. Google advises users to bookmark Gmail on their Chrome browsers so they may use the service even when they are offline.
Visit mail.google.com or click the Chrome bookmark you made for Gmail offline to access Gmail when you aren’t online. When you send emails while disconnected from the internet, they are saved in a special “Outbox” folder and even sent as immediately as you get online again.
Where would we be without good old Google to help us out in our times of need? Ever since its launch in the late 90s, it has undergone many changes and has acted as a developer for many of its newer variations of which Google Play is one of the best.
Google Play is a digital distribution service developed by Google that is considered an application for Android smartphones. You can call it the official app store of the Android operating system through which you can download and install numerous applications.
An important feature that allows users to identify a reputed brand application is its logo and Google Play too has one of its own so that it stands apart from other reputed logos of other brands.
On the occasion of the tenth anniversary, the logo underwent a massive revamp where the overall shape has been tweaked and the colours are less vibrant compared to the previous logo.
It is done so to match the red, green, blue and yellow hues that is used by Google for its other services and the revamping hopes to be a subtle way of adjusting to the new Google logo that was updated in early 2022 while this logo will serve to complement it.
Google Play is used by millions of people in more than 190 countries as they’re very interested in discovering new updates regarding apps, games and other content and this logo too should be counted amongst them as it has been launched to celebrate a milestone.
When it comes to adventure battle royales, Garena Free Fire should easily rank amongst the top 3 of any list of current games and its popularity skyrocketed after PUBG Mobile games were banned in India in 2020.
Needless to say, it has become one of the most popular mobile games across the globe while receiving glowing reviews on the Google Play Store and one big reason for it is because it offers players the liberty to develop their own strategies during the play.
The fact that they can acquire weapons, supplies, landing positions and hold their own against the enemy has made it a popular venture for all players who swear by it like no other mobile game.
Another reason that accounts for the game’s unrivalled popularity are its redeem codes that come out almost every day through which the players can unlock royal vouchers, diamond hacks, gold bullions and numerous other rewards.

Apple Begins to Show Rare Vulnerability Ahead of Economic Slowdown
The economy seems to have caught up with Apple. The firm appears to be sensitive to outside variables like growing inflation, rising interest rates, the rising US currency, and the prospect of a recession for the first time in a while.
In anticipation of a global economic slowdown. Apple aims to reduce spending and recruit across several teams over the next year. The company will release its fiscal third-quarter sales report later this week, and most experts believe it will be essentially flat compared with last year. Additionally, Apple’s supply chain still has some issues, which may restrict the availability of some of its upcoming gadgets.
Apple will not renew some positions when employees depart and will maintain a flat headcount for some teams as a result of the recruitment slowdown.
The business isn’t going as far as some of its major competitors, which had already announced mass layoffs, such as Tesla Inc., Meta Platforms Inc., and Microsoft Corp. Apple is avoiding layoffs and hasn’t made a public announcement about its plans as of yet. However, I believe Apple will indicate the change on its analyst conference call on Thursday.
The rate of increase in sales, according to analysts, will be around 2 percent lower than a year ago and the worst since 2020. in comparison to Apple’s 36 percent increase during the third quarter of 2021.
It is estimated that revenue would total around $82.7 billion. According to experts, the iPhone will contribute just under half of that, with services bringing in nearly $20 billion.
The challenges faced by Apple to go beyond Economic challenges.
The organization has previously stated that the top line for the previous quarter can be reduced by $4 billion to $8 billion due to supply problems raised by Chinese lockdowns and the chip shortage.
People furnishing their home offices as a result of the epidemic spent a lot of money in the third quarter of 2021. As a result, sales of iPods and Macs saw a healthy increase.
Even though the most recent MacBook Air was revealed in the third quarter, it wasn’t made available until the fourth. Since the MacBook Air is Apple’s most popular Mac, many buyers put off purchasing one while they awaited the release of the next model.
