One of Google Pixel’s best photo editing features, “Magic Eraser”, is rolling out for both Android and iOS devices. But it’s not free. Google announced that its popular tool, which uses AI to remove unwanted content from images, will be available to Google One subscribers in addition to existing Pixel owners. Google One subscribers also get access to several other editing tools, including new HDR video effects and exclusive collage styles.

Google One subscriptions originally started as a way to pay for additional cloud storage like photos, documents, Gmail, and more. Over the years, however, the features have expanded and now include a VPN, the ability to host long group video calls on Google Meet, 10% cashback on Google Store purchases, and other members-only features.

The Google Photos exclusive set of benefits is once again expanding with the rollout of Magic Eraser and other new additions.

Magic Eraser, previously only available to Google Pixel 6 and 7 owners, is rolling out to all Google One subscribers on both Android and iOS. It’s also available on his Pixel phones, Pixel 5a and earlier, and doesn’t require a Google One subscription.

Google Photos’ collage editor now also has a variety of new styles to choose from, plus the ability to apply the style to one of his photos in the collage. This is also available for both the Google One subscriber and his Pixel owner.

Google One subscribers will receive free shipping on photo prints ordered from their online store in the US, Canada, UK and EU.

In-app browsers are generally not the best way to consume in-app content. In fact, the Android developer has been using Chrome’s Custom Tabs feature to tweak the experience. Now, Google is rolling out new features like partial custom tabs and password autofill to make in-app navigation smoother on mobile operating systems.

The partial custom tabs feature gives developers more control over the initial launch height of tabs. For example, you can open a tab in half the screen when a user clicks an article link. This allows the user to interact with the app and the in-app browser at the same time.

They are also rolling out the feature for users to enter passwords and other stored details (such as addresses) without leaving the app. This is useful if your app’s browser has a login popup.

Google is suggesting Chrome custom tabs over WebView, claiming it offers more functionality.

Google said “When adding a web experience to your Android app, simply launching a browser from your app forces users to leave your app, with the risk of abandonment for that session. WebViews allow you to build your own in-app browser, but can be a complex process with higher maintenance overhead,”

Today, I would like to share about making a API request using ‘requests’ library in Python. Let’s take a look.

First of all, install the ‘requests’ library by the following command.

pip install requests

or

pip3 install requests

Here is the code to make a GET request to a public API.

import requests

api = 'https://catfact.ninja/fact'

response_data = requests.get(api)

response_data_json = response_data.json()

print(response_data_json)

The result is as follows.

{'fact': 'Lions are the only cats that live in groups, called prides. Every female within the pride is usually related.', 'length': 109}

This is the example request to a public API. You can learn more HERE for advanced usage.

Hope you enjoy that.
