This week in Android: WWDC 2020, Samsung Galaxy S20 Plus giveaway

Date:

Apple WWDC 2020 Apple Silicon

Let’s talk about Apple. This past week was WWDC 2020, and they had plenty of announcements. It’s exciting to see a number of fun Android features coming with iOS 14, just as it’s fun to see some new features headed to iPhone that we might see on Android in the future.

Two of our favorite changes for iOS 14 are the ability to change default apps and the new App Library, which is Apple’s take on an app drawer. Personally, the cluttered default homescreen on iOS always made my eye twitch, we welcome the change! We’re also happy to see widgets on the homescreen.

Do you want more Apple news? We have a relatively new series we’re calling This week in Apple – you can get it in on the site, or have it land in your inbox with the This week in Apple newsletter.
