For example, if you search for any store in the US, then the Google Search will list the store's details along with jobs available if any. 

Google did not reveal when the feature will go live for the users officially. However, the feature is live for some users in the US reports Android Police. The publication says that they've seen a job listing of Barista Coffee Shop.

Judy Malware Has Infected 36.5 Million Android Smartphones Across the Globe

 By Unknown on May 29, 2017       

Judy Malware is a new virus spreading to Android smartphones across the globe. According to a security firm Checkpoint, the malware has already spread to nearly 36.5 million Android devices and can be found in 41 Android apps in Google Play Store. And nearly 4.5 million to 18.5 million downloads are seen for the infected apps from the time of infection. 

The Judy Malware is an auto ad-clicking malware, which automatically clicks ads when you're on the infected app. That said, the revenue for those apps will be increased big time with this tool. 

Hackers have silently infected the apps by creating a Control and Command server, which apparently can't be spotted on the Google Play's Protect tool Bouncer. The CheckPoint firm says that this malware is in the Google Play Store apps since years now and a South Korean company, ENISTUDIO Corp created this malware. 

So, to stay secured and away from these apps, check out the reviews for the app and game before downloading it. And if you find a bad review, then ignore the app. 

Top Productivity Apps for Your New Android Phone

 By Vaibhav Jain on May 29, 2017       

Smartphones are now more capable than ever. The latest flagship phones feature Snapdragon 835 and a minimum of 4GB of RAM, allowing them to multitask better and run heavier, more complex apps without a problem. The Samsung GALAXY S8 can even be used as a desktop computer, showing just how capable it is.

The added power means you can now use most smartphones to replace your laptop; when you don’t have your laptop with you, you can still handle work or school-related tasks with ease using your phone. Of course, you need the best productivity apps for the job, and we have the top picks in this article.

Google Suite
Google has a number of productivity apps for Android phone users, including Google Drive, Google Docs, Google Sheets, and Google Slides. You’ll be surprised to know just how capable they are for even the most demanding tasks. I was trying to meet a submission deadline for my online MSMPP program assignment the other day and I relied heavily on Google Docs to get things done.

Google Calendar is just as handy. The interface is among the best on the market, delivering all the information you need through stunning visuals. The masters in project and program management program from Brandeis University I’m taking obliges me to keep up with schedules and exams, and Google Calendar – along with features such as auto-sync and reminders – has helped me.

For working on longer documents, it’s more comfortable to pair a Bluetooth keyboard instead of using the on-screen one. That said, there is nothing you cannot do on the go as long as you have a smartphone and Google productivity apps installed.

Pushbullet

Pushbullet is not a productivity app per se, but it is an app that you must try nonetheless. It allows your smartphone to be accessed from your laptop, giving you a better user experience in the process. It started life as an SMS app that helped users send text messages from computers, but it now offers many new features.

For instance, you can move files from and to the phone easily. The next time you need to carry a PowerPoint presentation on your phone, you can just sync the file through Pushbullet in seconds. It also supports display notifications and allows you to use messaging apps on your computer.

Unclouded

The last app on our list is Unclouded. This app is a must-have if you use more than one cloud storage service. It makes managing multiple accounts on Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive, and other services easier. Keep in mind that you can only manage a maximum of two accounts when using the free version, but switching to premium is well worth the small price you have to pay.

The app shows all of your cloud-stored files in one cool interface, eliminating the need to open several apps to gain access to your cloud storage. You can move files between services and access features such as sharing and file management just as easily.

With these apps installed, you will find your smartphone to be more capable than ever. There will be no task that you can’t handle on the go with the best productivity apps helping you every step of the way.

This So-Called LG V30 Project Will Blow Your Mind!

 By Unknown on May 27, 2017       

Google, at its I/O 2017 event a few days ago have confirmed that LG will be launching the LG V30 smartphone later this year and it will be Google Daydream ready. Popular tipster, Evan Blass today shared crucial information about the phone of what LG thought about it initially. 

Blass said "This is an old-ish mockup of Project Joan, a.k.a. the LG V30. Not clear if the project is still headed in this direction." By his words, it is clear that LG may not be working on the project now. 

However, if this project continues and LG releases the product in real life, it will be a gamechanger. Unlike the previous LG V series of phone which came out with a secondary display at the top, the V30 in the image has a secondary screen at the bottom and it's a breathtaking project nevertheless. 

Blass says that the secondary display can be expandable from the bottom on the primary display. Having said that, if LG work on this project and release the final product, it will be surely a segment changing phone in the market. 

Here's the Moto Z2 Play in all three colors

 By Vaibhav Jain on May 27, 2017       

Last month, we saw a render of the Moto Z2 Play is Grey color along with few Style shells, and now we have the front renders of the same device in White/Gold, Black/Grey and White/Silver color variants.

The Moto Z2 Play won't feature drastic changes from the Moto Z Play because Motorola promised that the Moto Mods will fit their devices for the next two years. 

Not only in the form of design, the device won't feature any drastic hardware changes as well. The phone will feature the same 5.5-inch display with increased brightness levels. The Snapdragon 626 will power the phone, but this time around there will be 4GB of RAM and 64GB onboard storage. 

The Z2 Play will use the same camera sensor as the Moto G5 Plus along with 5MP front-facing camera with dual tone LED flash. The battery size may also be trimmed down to 3000mAh, which will be a huge downgrade.
