Title: Mysterious Google Essentials app coming to PCs
Post by: Redaktion on August 26, 2024, 22:50:24
Described as "a new app that makes it easier for you to discover and install many of our best Google services," Google Essentials will hit HP brands first, including Envy, Pavilion, Spectre, and Victus. The suite will include Google Play Games and will allow the user to easily switch between a laptop and a smartphone.

I use google lens to translate pdfs quite a lot, but since it's not available in windows, I have to open my phone, take a picture of the screen, open it in google lens, then copy to desktop, then open it in google chrome. If the desktip google photos app came with google lens then this will simplify things for me at least

Biggest joke of the day.  I use Deepin browser on Deepin Linux, which is just a custom skin over Chromium open source, just so I can avoid its various basterd spying incarnations in Edge, Firefox, Chrome.  Me wanting to avoid being spied on, Google thinks ppl will cooly accept their spywares onto their systems...
