[ How to ?? ] Stop Android Oreo’s annoying ‘running in the background’ notification

https://9to5google.files.wordpress.com/2017/06/dp3_backgroundapps_1-e1504734788492.jpg?quality=82&strip=all&w=1500&h=800

One of the most annoying “features” in Android Oreo is persistent notifications that constantly tell you of any apps that are running in the background. It’s a great idea, but in practice, it’s just unwanted clutter. Unfortunately, the final version of Oreo provides no solution for this, but a clever developer has created a workaround.

A new free app on Google Play quite simply named “Hide ‘running in the background’ Notification,” is available now and works just as simply as you’d hope.

Once you’ve downloaded the app, just open it, grant notification access, and that’s it. The persistent notification should disappear immediately, but if not a quick reboot should make it kick in. From then on out, just leave the app installed in order to keep that notification hidden. One limitation is that, for the time being, it only works on devices set to English, but the developer says more languages are coming soon.

This app is, again, completely free on Google Play, but you do have the option of tossing the developer a donation as a thank you.

[ Tech News ] Google Duo picture-in-picture mode

Duo's picture-in-picture mode is now available for everyone on Oreo. Oreo introduced picture-in-picture mode for phones and tablets, and Google is now flipping the switch for Duo. The feature is now available on all Oreo devices. You don't need to make any changes to enable picture-in-picture mode. As long as you're using a device running Oreo and have the latest update installed , you should be able to use the feature. With picture-in-picture mode, you get a miniature version of the picture window in one corner of the screen when you hit the home button in the middle of a call. You can move the position of the picture window to any corner of the screen, and the video orientation will change automatically based on whether the phone is in landscape or portrait mode. Available now on Android Oreo! https://t.co/lYr30syCRV — Justin Uberti (@juberti) October 5, 2017

[ Tech News ] Google Assistant on Chromebooks

We’ve heard several times now through code commits and more that Assistant on Chromebooks is coming. However, nothing has really indicated exactly when this was going to happen. That is, until now. Hidden quietly within the Google Home app is a mention that some Assistant applications will work with Chromebooks. All Assistant apps list out which platforms they are compatible with through Assistant since, for example, some don’t work on phones, but do work on Google Home. Listed in the compatibility section of the Chat with your Assistant “game” right alongside phones, Google Home, and Allo is Chromebooks, clear as day. Not only is the text listed out, but a Chromebook icon shows up right along with those for Home and phones, so it seems pretty concrete that this is something Google intended to do, but just slipped out a little early.
