Google has announced a new feature for its Google Messages app. The feature is named the Trash folder, and it will help users manage deleted messages more easily.

Before this update, when you deleted a message, it was gone forever right away. But now, things are changing. With the new Trash folder, deleted messages will not disappear instantly. Instead, they will go into a special folder called Trash.

These messages will stay in the Trash for up to 30 days on most phones. This means if you delete something by mistake, you still have time to get it back. On Android Go phones, which are simpler devices, messages will stay in Trash for only seven days.

You can open the Trash folder anytime to check your deleted messages. From there, you can choose to restore a message, which will bring it back to your inbox. If you are sure you don’t need a message, you can delete it permanently. There are also options to delete all messages or restore all messages in just one tap.

To access trash, you just need to tap your profile picture in the top-right corner of the app, and you will see the option there. Google has not said the exact date when this feature will be available to everyone. Stay tuned for more information.

Samsung has added a new feature to its Galaxy S26 phones that allows you to use them as a webcam for your computer. Many people use old laptop webcams or small USB cameras that don’t give a clear picture. Your phone’s camera is usually much better, and now you can use it for video calls, online meetings, or streaming.

Previously, you needed additional apps to turn your phone into a webcam. But Google added a built-in USB webcam mode with Android 14 QPR1. With this feature, you just connect your phone to your computer with a USB cable and choose it as a webcam. There is no need to install extra software.

Samsung is now bringing this feature to the Galaxy S26 series. It makes it easy to get good video quality from your phone.

Samsung phones already allowed you to share your camera with other Galaxy devices, but this new USB mode is simpler and more reliable. It works directly with your computer and gives a stable, high-quality video.

Right now, this feature is only available for the Galaxy S26 phones. It is not clear if Samsung will add it to older phones in the future. Even so, it is a useful feature for anyone who wants better video quality without buying a new webcam.

Using your phone as a webcam lets you make the most of its camera. It gives you a clearer picture, better colors, and a sharper video. Samsung is showing that phones can do more than just take photos.

Google has started giving users a new feature in Google Messages – Real-time location sharing. This feature was announced earlier in March 2026, and now it is gradually becoming available to many users.

With this feature, you can share your live location with someone while chatting. This means the other person can see where you are in real time. It can be useful when you are meeting someone or want to let your family know where you are.

To use it, open a chat in Google Messages and tap the plus (+) icon. Then choose “Real-time location.” By default, your location will be shared for one hour. But you can change this easily.

You can choose to share your location for just one hour, for the whole day, or until you turn it off yourself. You can also set a custom time. For example, you can choose any time up to almost 24 hours. There is a simple clock tool that helps you set the time.

This feature uses Google’s system to give accurate location details, so it works well in most cases. There is also a small change in the app design. A tiny dot appears on the plus icon. This dot is likely there to show that there is something new. 

The new feature is simple and helpful as it makes it easier to share your location with others and keeps Google Messages up to date with other messaging apps. It is rolling out gradually, so all Android users will soon receive it.

Samsung has introduced a new program in India – Galaxy Forever, and it sounds like a great deal for people who want a premium phone without paying the full price at a time. With this offer, customers can use high-end devices like the Galaxy S26 Ultra and Galaxy S26 Plus by paying only half of the price in easy monthly installments for one year.

With Galaxy Forever, customers can use the Galaxy S26 Ultra or Galaxy S26 Plus by paying only half the cost in 12 easy, interest-free monthly installments. After one year, users have three choices: return the phone and get a guaranteed buyback value, keep the phone by paying the remaining 50% in easy installments, or upgrade to the newest Galaxy device.

The program also includes Samsung Care+ for 13 months. This gives protection against accidental damage and liquid spills, so users don’t have to worry much about repair costs.

However, there is one important limitation. The base Galaxy S26 model is not included in this program. Only the Galaxy S26 Ultra and Galaxy S26 Plus are eligible. This means users looking for a slightly more affordable flagship option may feel left out.

The offer is available on Samsung’s website and in many Samsung stores across India. It also supports different payment options like credit cards and Samsung Finance+, which makes it easier for more people to afford these phones.

The Galaxy Forever program makes it easy to own the Galaxy S26 Ultra or S26 Plus with affordable monthly payments. Here’s how the costs break down:

Galaxy S26 Ultra

• Starting Price: INR 1,39,999
• Device EMI: INR 5,833.29
• Programme Fee EMI: INR 749.92
• Total Monthly Payment: INR 6,583.21

Galaxy S26 Plus

• Starting Price: INR 1,19,999
• Device EMI: INR 4,999.96
• Programme Fee EMI: INR 749.92
• Total Monthly Payment: INR 5,749.88

Galaxy Forever is a smart and flexible offer, but it would have been even better if the base model had been included, too. Still, this program makes it easy to always stay updated with the latest technology without worrying about big payments.

Google may soon update the look of its Circle to Search feature. This change is only about design, not new functions. The aim is to make the feature look more colorful and modern while keeping it simple to use.

Currently, when you use Circle to Search, you draw a circle or line on your screen, and a white outline shows exactly what you selected. There is also a very light colorful trail, but most people hardly notice it because the white line stands out more.

In a new beta version of the Google app, Google is testing a different look spotted by Android Authority. Instead of the white outline, the feature shows a bright, colorful gradient trail when you circle something. This trail uses colors similar to Google’s logo, which makes the experience feel more lively and Google-like.

There is no change in how Circle to Search works. Users can still circle, tap, or draw on the screen to search as usual. The update only improves the visual experience. The new animation looks smoother and more fun. Even though it is a small change, it can make the feature more enjoyable to use.

Since this update was found in a beta version, it is still under testing. Google has not confirmed if or when it will be released to all users. It is also not clear if users will get an option to choose between the old and new designs. Stay tuned for more information.
