Hatred towards emojis.

Reddit downvotes anything with emojis. Like why? Do you guys not have friends? Everyone uses emojis these days when texting.

I will admit I used them WAY less before I started dating my girlfriend, but if you try to be social in any way, you will need to just accept emojis.

Plus they look cute, and convey emotions. Not sure what there is to hate? 🤔

Wonder how long until someone makes a lemmy instance for only bots, with some cool domain like @lemmy.bot

Then we don't have to remember all of the domains, and we can get easy to remember bots like;

According to multiple users on Telegram, Google is rolling out an update to the Emoji Wallpaper app in Android 14 Beta 3.

The update shows up on Google Play as "Emoji Workshop Wallpaper" and enables you to use the emoji wallpaper feature in Wallpaper & styles.

Here's the Play Store link. The listing doesn't appear if you open Google Play on the web, but it does appear if you open it on a Pixel phone as it filters for devices that declare com.google.android.feature.PIXEL_EXPERIENCE.

There are two main differences between the prebuilt Emoji Wallpaper app in the firmware and the updated Emoji Workshop Wallpaper app.

  1. "Emoji Labs" in Wallpaper & style has been renamed to "Emoji Workshop"

  2. The emoji wallpaper is now interactive, as shown off at I/O.

The min SDK version of the Emoji Workshop Wallpaper app is 33, so it can be installed on Android 13+ devices. However, if you sideload it on a device without Google's Wallpaper & style app, you'll have to manually launch the activity to create/set the wallpaper.


Once the APK is up on APKMirror, I'll update this post with a link in case you want to sideload it on your non-Pixel device. Alternatively, you can grab the APK shared by the Google News Telegram group.

Hi Beta users,

Today we’re releasing Android 14 Beta 3 (UPB3.230519.008) which includes our latest fixes and optimizations. We’ve also enabled Android Beta enrollment for the new Pixel 7a!

The following issues are fixed in Beta 3:

  • Fixed issues that prevented Wi-Fi calling from being enabled for some devices and carriers. (Issue #277964472)
  • Fixed an issue that caused Direct My Call interactions to fail in some cases where they would normally work. (Issue #278252154)
  • Fixed system issues that caused unnecessary power consumption in some cases.
  • Fixed system stability issues that caused UI jank in some cases.
  • Fixed an issue that caused the system Settings app to crash while setting the wallpaper.
  • Fixed an issue with the system UI that could cause a GPU hang, leading to "Application Not Responding" (ANR) errors.
  • Fixed a system issue that could sometimes cause a device's GPS services to stop working until the device was rebooted.
  • Fixed issues with the IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) that could prevent devices from being able to make Wi-Fi calls in some cases.
  • Fixed an issue where a blank screen displays after selecting the "Message" option for a recent caller in the Google Phone app.
  • Fixed an issue where while 3-button navigation was enabled for a device, putting Google Maps into picture-in-picture mode made the picture-in-picture window disappear.
  • Fixed an issue where locking and unlocking a device while playing a video in the Google TV app could cause the device to freeze.
  • Fixed an issue with Android Auto where some users could be asked to re-pair Bluetooth.
  • Fixed issues with Health Connect, including the following issues and other API and system behaviors:
    • An issue where the system back button stopped working while Health Connect integration was in progress.
    • An issue where the Route Permissions screen would sometimes freeze.
    • An issue where Health Connect sometimes couldn't be accessed in system settings.
    • An issue where the data category page of Health Connect was missing some permission types when a filter was applied.

Known Issues:

  • An issue with the Credential Manager platform APIs causes instability in apps that use them. A fix is available in the latest preview version of the Android 14 SDK, which developers can install using Android Studio. Developers who previously installed a preview version of the Android 14 SDK should completely uninstall the previous version and then reinstall the SDK to apply the fix.
  • An issue with the system UI sometimes causes the screen to flicker when a video is playing or an app is using in picture-in-picture mode.
  • In some cases, video continues playing in the background even after closing an app if the video was playing in picture-in-picture mode when it was closed.
  • A video that is playing in picture-in-picture mode stops playing abruptly if the back gesture is used within the PiP settings screens.
  • A system issue can sometimes cause the Android System Intelligence service to crash.
  • When using a device with a work profile, the Google Play Store app in the work profile hangs or crashes when launched.

Android 14 Beta 2.1 patch UPB2.230407.019 change log:

  • Fixed an issue that prevented users from completing device setup after opting a device running an Android 14 beta build out of the beta program. However, this fix is not backward compatible, so users that want to opt out of the beta program should take the following steps before opting out:
    • Update the device to Android 14 Beta 2.1, either through the over-the-air (OTA) update prompt, or by downloading an OTA image and then applying the update manually.
    • If your device is already opted out of the beta program and currently experiencing this issue, follow the steps above and download Beta 2.1.
    • Reset the pin, pattern, or password that's used on the device by navigating to Settings > Security & privacy > Screen lock. You can use the same pin, pattern, or password that was used previously, but you need to go through the setup flow.
    • Opt out of the beta program by following the instructions listed for the "How can I opt out and return to a public Android release" question in the FAQ section of the Android Beta Program page. If your device is not enrolled, you can download the public Android 13 images instead.
  • Fixed more issues that could cause the battery percentage to display as 0% regardless of the actual charge level of the device. (Issue #281890661)
  • Fixed issues that sometimes caused audio disruptions with the device's speakers. (Issue #282020333, Issue #281926462, Issue #282558809)
  • Fixed system stability issues that could cause apps or the device to freeze or crash. (Issue #281108515)
  • Fixed an issue with always-on-display mode when using a device with Android Auto. (Issue #282184174)
  • Fixed an issue that sometimes caused the Google Photos app to crash when trying to open certain photos.
  • Fixed an issue where, while gesture navigation was enabled for a device, putting a video into picture-in-picture mode in the Google TV app made the picture-in-picture window disappear, even though playback continued and audio could still be heard.
  • Fixed an issue that caused the Google Contacts app to crash when managing account settings.
  • Fixed an issue where the icon for the Google Messages app did not display for notifications when always-on-display mode was enabled.
