Overview

Welcome to episode 96 of Pixelated, a podcast by 9to5Google. This week, Damien, Abner, and Will talk through Google’s new native Gemini app for Mac and wonder why now, and why we don’t see more standalone applications from the company. They also dive into new reports surrounding Google’s portion of the foldable market — and the risk Apple holds against it — before finishing up with YouTube’s new workaround for disabling Shorts.
