The Taycan doesn't have wireless android auto/apple carplay?? Was that due to the chip shortage?

2022 - native Apple Car Play and Android Auto support. This Android powered box works thru a native Apple Car Play connection and thru that runs an Android 9.0 shell that allows me to use my Google account and download whatever Google Play Store apps are compatible. I got this mostly to play streaming video apps on the infotainment screen, something standard Apple Car Play or Android Auto cannot do for obvious reasons. Will be perfect for long boring drives and when I'm hanging out in the car at a public DC charging station. |

Resizing of floating windows (watching Netflix then going back to the home screen and you can now make the floating window bigger or smaller)
Multiwindow/app support is way easier to use and quicker to get to. I've also noticed my calls over wifi are more stable. Before when I would move through the house and join another node on my mesh network the calls don't drop. |

AT&T says I can trade in my Pixel 5 with an $800 trade in for a Pixel 6P. Should I?

I know a ton of folks rave about the 6P's camera, if that's your thing. |

Do it.
Though......imo the P5 is underrated (though it was overpriced) and the best Pixel to date. As far as cameras, the biggest improvement will be in low light and videos. My P5 had better battery life. It was also imo the perfect size. |

I always wonder just how many terribly optimized apps people are running at the same time when they blame the phone for the battery life. I don't social media and don't go crazy with unnecessary apps that serve the same function as using a mobile web browser, so I can use my P6 for 2 full days on a charge if need be.

Any one still using custom launchers like Nova? Does it remove that dead space below the icons (where the navigation bar or gesture bar would be)? Or move widgets down there?

I used LawnChair lawncher up until I got the P6.
it was essentially just a standard Pixel experience only without the 'at a glance' bar taking over 1/4 of the screen. I tried using it on the P6, but I guess they haven't updated the app to work correctly on the current version, so I went back to the stock experience, but haven't really taken the time to try it again. |

I use Nova and yes it looks like you can.
Normally I have the navigation bar on but I tried it with it turned off and you can put icons down at the bottom of the screen. |

Yeah I'm sticking to stock on my P6.
But my P3 is running Lineageos and the stock launcher is pretty barebones, which is okay but it doesn't offer that feature. Edit: Thanks for the heads up trevoroni. |

No problem, thanks for the Infinity for Reddit suggestion a while ago.
I've been using it since and it's great that you can subscribe to sub Reddits without an actual account. |

Interesting. I'm a Beta tester and haven't seen the feature added yet.

Yeah I literally don't have that option. Z Fold 3. Latest updates running. Even yesterday there were some updates and I checked again.

Not only are there plenty of Android bugs, but the reporters are buggy as well

Go to the Settings App(yeah it's an actual app) and clear the cache, restart the phone. I had to so this when I got my Pixel to get some of the settings to show up in the menus.

Thanks. Good idea about clearing the cache. Cleared it for Settings and Messages. Still no dice.
