Your Pixel Watch won’t be getting updates for a bit.

November’s Pixel Watch update is here to address last month’s botched Wear OS 5 rollout for older devices, but the curious thing is the update note says the next one is months away:

Pixel Watch 1, Pixel Watch 2, and Pixel Watch 3 devices will receive the November 2024 software update, with the next update planned for March 2025.

It’s odd since Google generally pushes out an update every month. There’s also simply no reason given. Well, a lot can happen in four months.

Verizon’s messaging app isn’t dead yet.

Message Plus was supposed to be shut down by now, but it appears that Verizon’s messaging client is sticking around just a little longer. The new shutdown date is December 9th, so you have just over a month to wrap up all your conversations and head over to Google Messages. I, for one, will not miss uninstalling it from every Android phone I use.

The Google TV app now lets you share links to its content.

9to5Google spotted the handy feature quietly added to the app on both Android and iOS.

Whoever you send a link to needs to have the app installed on their device, or else it’ll just send them to the app store listing (or the Google TV site if they’re on a computer.)
