Want To Switch From IPhone To Android? New Google Drive Update Will Make It Smooth

Google is pushing aggressively, to make the switch from iPhone to Android as easy as possible. Ever since Google released its Pixel smartphones, they are now a direct, face- to- face competitor with Apple. It is really evident from Google’s Switch to Android guide for iPhone users.

Now, with an upcoming update, Google plan to make the transition as worry free as possible. Google is adding a new feature to Google Drive app for iOS that will back up your important data from iPhone to the Google Drive. And once you switch to an android phone, whether its Pixel or Galaxy, these data will be automatically available as you set your phone up.

The feature will back up your contacts, calendar and camera roll. This is considered to be Google’s answer to a similar effort Apple made with iCloud on Android to help out people make the switch to iPhones. However, Google drive cannot yet back up your text messages or music from iPhones. You can access these feature under the Backup tab in Google Drive for iOS.

Furthermore, Niantic has added new Pokemon type icons to the information screen as well.

Remember, Pokemon GO features in-app purchases in order to boost the gameplay further. They are optional, but tempting.

It’s fairly obvious at this point Niantic is constantly working in the background to keep Pokemon GO as interesting as possible. While the company is adding small little changes on an almost weekly basis, it seems as though we are in for a big surprise in the months to come with major changes to the game. But what will those changes be? We can’t say for sure. Nonetheless we will keep our readers informed of the slightest change that is added to the game, so stay tuned.

Xiaomi’s Wearable Device Tracks Your Sleep, Steps And Heart Rate

Xiaomi’s much-speculated second wearable device is now official, after the Chinese company unveiled the Mi band pulse.

A report from speculated that the Mi Band, the company’s debut wearable, made Xiaomi the world’s second largest seller of wearables behind only Fitbit. That was before the Apple Watch went on sale, of course, but this follow-up builds on that potential.

Beyond tracking your steps and sleep, alarms and some notifications, the Mi Band Pulse includes a heart rate tracker, as previously speculated. That addition — the device usesPPG to measure your heart rate — has made it slightly larger than its predecessor. The original Mi Band took a little time to add iPhone support, but Xiaomi’s website confirms that the wearable will work with both Android (4.4 or later) and iOS (iPhone 4S / iOS 7.0 upwards) from the get-go.

Most importantly, the device has retained a low price tag. That’s 99 CNY, or around $15, this time around. The original Mi Band will still be available for those seeking something more basic, with a  slightly lower price of 69 CNY, or around $11.

Fans of Xiaomi and its low-priced tech gadgets may be disappointed to hear that the wearable will go on sale in China only initially, as part of the country’s massive 11/11 Singles Day online shopping festival.

Xiaomi told us that it doesn’t yet have anything to say about international sales. However, we expect the Mi Band Pulse to be available outside of China soon, since the Mi Band itself retails in India, Europe and the U.S. too via Xiaomi's global mi store.

I bought a Mi Band recently as an inexpensive way to test whether fitness tracking is something that I want to take seriously. With the addition of a heart rate tracker, Xiaomi just made dabbling in this area more compelling — although we haven’t tested the Mi Band Pulse out yet.
