Google Phone app: If you have an Android device, there's some good news for you! Tech giant Google is rolling out a new feature for the Google Phone app that announces who’s calling when the phone rings.
According to a report from 9to5Google, the company is rolling out a new feature for its Phone app that will announce the name and number of any incoming calls — a move to help users screen unwanted calls. Currently, the Pixel phone owners in the US have received the automatic Call Screen feature, and other countries will get the new tool soon.

You can set whether you want the app to announce caller ID every time the phone rings, or when an earphone on. To enable the new feature, open Google Phone, go to Settings and then Caller ID announcement. The "Announce caller ID" is disabled by default but you can choose between "Always," "Only when using a headset," or "Never," the IANS reported.
According to the report, iOS devices already have the caller ID feature enabled. Caller ID announcements are a great accessibility feature, allowing people with visual impairments to more easily know who is calling them.
Meanwhile, Google is testing a new Chrome feature known as 'Desktop Sharing Hub' or 'Chrome Sharing Menu'. In essence, the company wants to streamline all the many ways you can share content from Chrome and place it into one simple interface, Android Central reported.
As spotted by Chrome Story, once this new hub is enabled, users will be able to do actions like generating a QR code, sharing to devices, casting a tab and other actions that revolve around sharing the current page to another person or device from a centralised location.
According to the report, it currently exists just behind a "sharing-hub-desktop-omnibox" flag in Chrome Canary and can only be used on Chrome 92. While Chrome had been more or less stable before 2020 (barring user interface updates), Google has been working on improving productivity features in its more recent releases.
