Google pushes Gemini sharing fixes as it irons out usage limits and app glitches

Google is rolling out new Gemini sharing tools for Workspace users, letting chats, canvases, and generated media be shared through Google Drive. The feature uses Drive’s familiar sharing interface, shares only a snapshot of the conversation at that point, and is enabled by default for Workspace customers. Admins can control both public link sharing and Drive sharing in the Admin Console. androidauthority.com neowin.net

At the same time, Google is still addressing Gemini’s usage-limit complaints. Google has said it is changing the compute-based quota system to make limits more predictable, capping how much a single prompt can use, and excluding failed requests from usage counts. It is also adding more detailed breakdowns and notifications for heavier tasks like Deep Research. androidauthority.com 9to5google.com

Outside Gemini, Google also pushed out product fixes elsewhere in its ecosystem. The company says the YouTube Music issues affecting iPhone users have been fixed with app version 9.21, and Google announced that an issue with YouTube Music playback, miniplayer, and CarPlay was resolved after late-May updates. Separately, Google signaled upcoming updates for Google Photos Memories editing and shared new details on Gemini-related hardware and design tools. 9to5google.com androidpolice.com guru3d.com xda-developers.com

Common questions on Google, surfaced from across the indexed web.

Could NotebookLM be next?

There's literally a website called Killed by Google dedicated to tracking every product the company has discontinued, and at this point, the list is long enough to make anyone hesitant about getting too attached to a Google product (no matter how good it may be). Given that NotebookLM spent months as an experiment in Labs, then graduated from it and became a full-fledged product and is where it is today, I don't really think it'll get killed off. But what I covered in the section above does seem plausible. NotebookLM could stop being its own thing, and just become a tab inside Gemini. All that

Google's silence on NotebookLM at I/O proves why people don't trust their products
What is Android's digital car key feature?

Google added support for digital car keys with the release of Android 12 in 2021, one year after Apple brought its version of the same idea, CarKey, to iOS. Both let you store a digital copy of your car key in your default wallet app (Google Wallet, for Android devices) and control your car over a secure wireless connection. What extra functions are available to you depends on each vehicle's maker, but the ability to unlock your car comes at a minimum. Because this smartphone key is entirely digital, and basically a representation of data associated with your car, it can also be shared with ot

How do digital car keys work on Android?

Car Connectivity Consortium On Android, once you've added your key to Google Wallet, your smartphone connects to your vehicle over Bluetooth and Ultra-wideband (UWB). The latter is the radio technology used in by things like Google's Find Hub and Apple's AirTags. Digital car keys can also fall back on an NFC (or Near Field Communication) connection if your Android device doesn't have one of those other radios. Your car may also use NFC to authenticate your phone when you first add your key to Google Wallet. These methods may actually be more secure than your car's wireless fob. According to Go

How do you add a digital car key to your Android phone?

How you actually go about adding your car key to Google Wallet will vary depending on your car. Some companies let you add the key directly through their app, while others send you an email with an "Add to Android" button. Some even let you set up the key through your in-car display. Whichever method your vehicle requires, you'll need an up-to-date Android phone with the Google Wallet app installed and a Google Account to get started. All three methods require logging in with your Google Account, agreeing to the terms of service and authenticating your smartphone, either over NFC through your
