Google Ends the 16GB Android Era: What the New 32GB Minimum Means for Everyone

Google has quietly but decisively ended the era of 16GB Android smartphones. With the rollout of Android 15, any phone that wants to ship with Google apps—including essentials like the Play Store—must now have at least 32GB of internal storage and 2GB of RAM. Devices that fall below this threshold are relegated to the lighter, stripped-down Android Go Edition, or lose access to Google Mobile Services (GMS) entirely This change is more than a technical footnote. It signals a major shift in the Android ecosystem, with far-reaching implications for developers, manufacturers, retailers, marketers, and consumers alike. Why Google Raised the Bar Apps Are Heavier, Expectations Are Higher The days when 16GB could comfortably house the Android OS, a handful of apps, and some photos are long gone. Modern apps—especially those with rich media, AI features, and offline capabilities—are significantly larger. Even so-called “lite” apps have grown in size, and the Android system itself continues to ...

5 Features that make google docs a must-use tool for every content writer - Ow-tech Solutions

5 Features that make google docs a must-use tool for every content writer

One of the best free tools you can use today for content writing is google docs. Whether you are creating blog posts, short stories,, or novels, google docs can be a great editing tool for you.

Compared to other text editing tools like Microsoft word, google docs emerges top. In this article we are going to look at some of the main features that make google docs the right tool for you.


1. Text formatting features

There are many text editors on the internet that can be used both online and offline. These editors have different features that make them unique in a way. Google docs has quite a number of exciting text editing features that can help you create a document that stands out.

With google docs, you can organize your content by using a table of contents which can be applied with a simple click of a button. You can also use headings to make your content look more professional and easy to read. 

These are just additional features since you get access to all other editing functions found in other editors like Microsoft Office Word.

2. Links and Buttons.

When writing a blog for a website or a piece of document to be shared with learners, additional links can help refer the reader to external documents with more information. Google docs gives you the option to add or embed links within your content. Links can be embedded in text or images within a document. 

You simply need to select the word or line where you would like to add a link then insert the link through the insert menu.

You can also add a button with text and an embedded link using google docs. Buttons are a better way to add a call to action(CTA) to your content and are easily visible compared to text-embedded links.

To add a button in google links, click on the insert menu, select drawing, choose new, shapes and draw a shape the size of a standard button(pick a rounded rectangle from the shapes). Once done with drawing, add a text box to enter your CTA then save. You can then add a link from the insert menu or using the insert link icon explained in the video below.


3. Autosave function

One of the most frustrating things for any content writer is losing the contents of a task that you have put some time in. Not all tools provide the autosave function. That means that when something like a power outage occurs, you are likely to lose all that you have done if you hadn't saved it.

Google docs has an autosave function that automatically saves changes you have made to your document every few seconds. With this feature, you can always be sure that your content is safe. It doesn't matter if your hard drive crashes or phone gets blown up. Your files will remain intact if created in google docs.


4. Storage within google docs.

When you create an account on Google you get free storage of up to 15GB. This storage can be used to store different types of files including large video files and documents. Your google docs account is connected to google drive and that makes it easy to save any created files. Cloud storage is the safest way to keep your files.

Files created or stored in google drive can be downloaded and shared as links or attachments via email.

The download option gives formats such as PDF, docs, and txt files. 

5. Google translate

This is one of my favorite features in the google apps library.

The google translate option helps you change your content into different languages before sharing it with your audience.

It becomes an important tool when you need to share a file with a large group of people but in their local language. It is easier to get more engagement on your content if it is in a language that the readers understand and can relate to.

You can opt to translate part of or an entire document into any language you prefer.


These are just a few features of google docs that I find interesting. There are important features and tools that you should learn about. Watch the video below to understand how to use google docs.

This is what I do to take good care of my Headphones - Ow-tech Solutions

 Buying a headphone was one of the things I was excited about when I got my first one. Having used earphones for a long time and getting tired of the frequent cable damage, I had to make a change. The headphone was a very cheap one, the P47 wireless headphones, which is one of the most common and cheapest headphones today. I had no money but wanted to get the experience. On getting the headphone, I became a celeb in my neighborhood, all eyes on me. Let's drop the fantasizing. I used the headphone for slightly over a year. By then, the Bluetooth function was no more since the battery had been damaged, one handle was broken and patched up with insulating tape and the speakers had been repaired several times. I had no idea how to take care of the headphones. I literally learned my lesson the hard way.  From my experience, these tips can be helpful if you want to take good care of your headphones and use them for a long time. 1. If wireless, do not overcharge. If one thing is sure...
