Google revives its blob emoji as sticker packs on Gboard and Android Messages

Google revives blobs, its correct emoji, as sticker packs on Gboard and Android Messages A year after blobmoji were rudely replacedYou're going to see a lot of emoji this day now that the web has declared it the international holiday for celebrating them. But only one determine of emoji is worth remotely caring about, and it's the return of the blobmoji on Google. Yes, technically the blobs live on via Allo, but ever the messaging app's development was put on indefinite "hold" back in April, Google's now reviving the blobs as a sticker pack on Gboard and Android Messages. Google killed its blob emoji last year, and it has ever replaced them by a level circular shape (read: generic) to align its offering by emoji from other operating systems. And earlier this summer, blobmoji began disappearing from the last remaining places, like Google Hangouts on the web.

Google warns Android might not remain free because of EU decision

as mentioned in Google warns Android might not remain free because of EU decision An unlikely warningThe EU's decision to force Google to unbundle its Chrome and search apps from Android may have some implications for the future of Android's free business model. In a blog post defending Google's decision to bundle search and Chrome apps on Android, Google CEO Sundar Pichai outlines the company's response to the EU's $5 billion fine. Pichai then hints that the free Android business model has relied on this app bundling. Google is warning that its Android business model could now change, and that may mean the company going to need to consider licensing Android to phone makers. It's an unlikely scenario that relies on consumers not seeking out Chrome or Google search on Android after Google's unbundling.
