- Price is Right:
This is the longest-running game show on television, featuring host Bob Barker. In this, audience members try to win cash and prizes with one basic challenge which is to guess the prices of everyday (or not quite everyday) retail items. You can tune into seasons 11-14, which are currently in rotation.
- Jamie Oliver:
Jamie Oliver, the global cooking sensation is cooking up his own 24/7 channel that provides you with his simple, quick, and no-fuss recipes. Samsung TV Plus will feature a variety of cooking formats with 22 series, from a stand and stir to travel food adventures & documentaries, and even shows where the star competes with his own best friend.
- Divorce Court:
It is a channel owned and operated by Samsung. It presents the drams of the live courtroom show featuring a no-nonsense judge and soon-to-be-exes who come to Divorce Court to settle cases from heartache to unusual disputes.
In addition to these three channels already available on the platform, the company will also introduce two more channels in March, in honor of Women’s History Month. These include:
- Leading Ladies on The Movie Hub:
In March, The Movie Hub will celebrate Women’s History Month with films featuring leading ladies of Hollywood. From Oscar winner Jessica Chastain in the American crime drama Lawless to two-time Golden Globe winner Amy Adams in Vice, users can enjoy some of the most intriguing performances on the big screen.
- Leading Ladies Marathon on FilmRise Free Movies:
Customers will see epic performances by women for women in titles like My Other Mother, Madame Bovary, Gang of Roses, Mrs. Dalloway, and After the Storm, starring Whoopi Goldberg, Kate Hudson, and many more.
Google Messages is getting a new look for its voice recorder UI. The microphone icon in the text field will change to a waveform icon, which is different from the voice typing button in Gboard.
Instead of holding down the mic to record, you will now see a panel with a start/stop button and options to cancel, delete, or attach the recording. You will also see a waveform and a timer while recording, and you can play back the recording before sending it.
The voice messages preview will also show a waveform between the play/pause button and the timer, making it more noticeable than the current straight line.
These changes are not widely available yet, but some users have reported seeing them on their phones. These new changes are part of a bigger redesign that Google is working on for Messages, which includes a revamped home screen that is still in beta testing. Google might announce new features soon.
