Google is happy to help and has come up with some solutions for everyday worries. Check them here.

At Google last week their conference I / O 2021 was central. And at such a conference, many new developments are announced. Handy from Google, they have made a list of the most important solutions. We have selected the best ones.

Change TV channel

You used to be the man if you had a TV with a remote control. No more walking to the TV to change channels, that was high tech at the time. A lot of you haven’t even experienced this, but to make remote controls redundant, Google has something now. You can simply operate your TV with your smartphone, away with all those different remote controls. Sure, this is not something new, but it is new at Google. If you want to use this, you have to use Android TV OS.

Open the car

Another solution from Google that works with your smartphone. Several car manufacturers already make it possible to open your car doors with your smartphone. Google is now further developing this and it is not brand bound. With Android 12 it will be possible to unlock your doors. Starting your car is also possible. Even better, you don’t even have to take your phone out of your pocket. The car recognizes you remotely.

Hustle and bustle

Google’s next solution is about crowds. Everyone can go to the fitness again! Well, everyone. Only 30 people are allowed in one room. Annoying if you do not know in advance and it is full. Google maps already makes it possible to know how busy it is at different locations, for example at a gym or in the wine shop. This function will now be expanded with an entire location. If the city center of Rotterdam is busy, you can check this in advance.

What you can also do in maps is to use augmented reality in Live View while walking. You will then be provided with useful details about the shops and restaurants around you, including how busy they are and the latest reviews and photos. Another handy solution from Google is finding your hotel. I always lose my hotel when I’m in a foreign city. Live View will let you know where I am in relation to the hotel, so that I can always find my way back.

Google Lens

You can already do a lot with Google Lens, but you will soon be able to do a lot more. For example, if you take a screenshot, you can find out many things afterwards. Do you see cool sunglasses? Then you can look it up via Google Lens and perhaps purchase it.
