Sure, our smartphones know a lot about who we are.
If you have an Android smartphone, you may not know that Google saves all of the voice commands you give it. They’re archived online in your Google account.
Google says it keeps the audio search information to improve its voice recognition. Android users can opt out, which keeps your recordings anonymous. (Apple also stores voice commands collected by Siri users, though they’re not so obviously associated to users.)
You can find your audio commands — as well as other histories, like all of the YouTube videos you’ve searched for and watched — by visiting your Google history page. You can disable this storage feature by managing your activity.
Otherwise, you can look through and listen to your Google voice searches — all those times you said “OK Google” and asked for directions, set alarms, dictated texts and searched for answers to the many questions that pop in your head throughout the day.

The Pixel and Pixel XL is what happens when Google designs phones
It took Google a while, but its fascination with hardware has finally turned into something serious. Software is Google’s art, and the company has been working for a long time to craft the right canvases. That’s where the new Pixel and Pixel XL come in. These phones are a culmination on Google’s part of years’ worth of experimenting with hardware, and they’re unsurprisingly great. Simply put, everyone else making Android phones should be a little worried.

New study shows Android smartphones are more reliable than iPhones
According to research by Blancco Technology Group, Android devices are more reliable than iPhone handsets.
The defining factor is the devices’ failure rate — a broad term defined for the study as whenever a smartphone doesn’t work as it’s supposed to, whether it be camera issues or battery malfunctions.
As reported by BGR, the overall failure rate is higher in iPhones (62%) than in competing Android devices (47%). Of all iPhone devices, the iPhone 6 fared the worst. Read more (3/9/17 3:55 PM)

Everyone and anyone with a smartphone know it is not long before your phone holds a charge for less and less time as the battery begins to degrade. But new research by scientists at the NanoScience Technology Center at the University of Central Florida (UCF), USA, could change that. The team have developed a new method for producing flexible supercapacitors that can store greater amounts of energy and can be recharged over 30,000 times without degradation. This new method could transform technology such as electric vehicles and mobile phones in the future.
‘If you were to replace the batteries with these supercapacitors, you could charge your mobile phone in a few seconds and you wouldn’t need to charge it again for over a week,’ said University of Central Florida researcher Nitin Choudhary.
The UCF team has attempted to apply newly discovered 2D materials that measure just a few atoms thick to supercapacitors. Other scientists have also tried formulations with other 2D materials including graphene, but had only limited success. The new supercapacitors are composed of millions of nanometre-thick wires coated with shells of 2D materials. The core facilitates the super-fast charging and discharging that makes supercapacitors powerful, and the 2D coating delivers the energy storage ability.
‘We developed a simple chemical synthesis approach so we can very nicely integrate the existing materials with the two-dimensional materials,’ said Yeonwoong Eric Jung, assistant professor of the study. Jung is working with UCF’s Office of Technology Transfer to patent the new process. ‘It’s not ready for commercialisation,’ Jung said. ‘But this is a proof-of-concept demonstration, and our studies show there are very high impacts for many technologies.’
