YouTube is ending its cheaper “Premium Lite” plan that offered ad-free viewing for €6.99 per month. The plan was only available in some European countries including Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, and Sweden since mid-2021. This plan will be discontinued after 25 October 2023.
The “Premium Lite” plan did not include YouTube Music, offline downloads, or background playback, unlike the regular YouTube Premium plan. YouTube says the company is working on different versions of Premium Lite based on user feedback.
YouTube Premium recently increased its prices for individual plans to $13.99/month while family plans cost $22.99/month. YouTube has also been trying to block ad blockers on its platform.
Many users want a more affordable option to watch YouTube videos without ads. YouTube Premium Lite seemed to be a good solution, but it was not widely available. It is unclear if YouTube will launch a similar plan in the future.

Some Google Pixel and Samsung owners recently noticed that a useful feature of Smart Lock called Trusted Devices disappeared from their devices. Now, Google has fixed the Trusted devices missing issue and users can now again use this feature.
Smart Lock allows users to keep their phones unlocked when connected to a trusted Bluetooth device, such as a smartwatch or a car system. This feature is part of Smart Lock on Android 13 and older and is renamed to Extend Unlock on Android 14.
However, in recent days, many users have reported that the Trusted Devices option is no longer available in Smart Lock/Extend Unlock settings on Samsung and Pixel devices. They can only see On-body detection and Trusted places options. This issue seems to affect both Android 13 and 14 devices, regardless of the Google Play services version.
If you are still experiencing this issue on your device, check if there is a Google Play system update available. If yes then the update is now to enjoy a smooth and bug-free experience.
Aside from this, Google is also working on a new feature called Watch Unlock, which will let users unlock their phones with their smartwatches. However, this feature is not ready for public release yet.
