Hey everyone,    I have just had a small work setup upgrade: I got a standing desk! Now, I can alternate between sitting down - which I do when I have to use my second screen - and standing up - which I do for meetings.    In terms of the rest of my desk setup, I have a mouse and an ergonomic keyboard, my trusted notebook where I write everything and my coloured pens (I like to categorise ideas by colour).    I find that limiting the amount of objects and things on my desk helps me focus - an organised workplace helps me organise my thoughts!   What is your setup like? Is it different at home than in the office? What is the thing you love about it and what do you think could be improved?    You can take inspiration from a previous conversation about workplace setups (and meet @Lizzie’s desk buddies).    Chat soon, Emilie 

Two months ago, the community members were asked HERE about their favorite food. 🍕Pizza was the clear winner! But nobody said anything about 🍣sushi. Because it's expensive and far too complicated? No, sushi is not that complicated! 🤩 A few years ago, I bought a “sushi box” with all the basic ingredients. Just buy some vegetables and fish and you're good to go. So I dared to try it with two friends and... the result was pretty adventurous. There were no instructions or tips in the box, just ingredients and tools. Although we did almost everything wrong, I didn't let that daunt me. I picked up tips here and there and experimented myself.Anyone can prepare good sushi - with a little patience. With a little practice, perhaps even at the first attempt, you can make much better sushi than what you can buy in the supermarket. This guide will focus on Maki and California rolls (“inside-out rolls”). Table of ContentsMain ingredients and toolsPopular, fresh ingredientsCook and

*Updated 14th July, 2025 - this update has now been completed - to read the update, please view here. Thanks for your patience with this.    -------     Hey everyone,   I hope you are doing well.   We have an exciting development to share with you next week. As you might have guessed from the image above, we will be welcoming a new community on to our community platform. The new community will have it's own dedicated community area, discussion boards and content specifically relating to that product area.    How will this impact the Android Enterprise Customer Community? You will notice very little change to the Android Enterprise Customer Community. The primary modification will involve a minor adjustment to the community header. We will be adding a new dropdown menu next to the Android logo - enabling swift navigation between the Android Enterprise Customer Community and the new community addition (for those who may want to toggle between the

Hey everyone,    As you may know, there is a heatwave happening in Europe at the moment. I think the US is also experiencing some very hot weather.   In London, we will have a peak of 32° Celsius, which is about 90° Fahrenheit. 🥵   I live in a small studio apartment located right under the roof and it is often as hot inside as it is outside. No fan seems to be helping so, full disclosure, I have spent the weekend lying very still and reading!    But, today is Monday and I’ve found an air-conditioned haven to work from, which rebooted my overheated brain and got me thinking:   Are you doing alright in this heat (your wellbeing matters!)?  Have you tackled working in a heatwave?  How do you stay cool?  Do you have any tips to share with the community?    Let me/us know about your workday and what ways you have found to cope with the heat.    I find that a nice little comforting treat is an iced coffee.   If you

Hey everyone,    How have you all been?    These past couple of weeks have flown by so fast - my time off feels like a fever dream 😂   I had a fantastic time, though! I walked a half marathon, for which I had been training for weeks - it was my third time. It is such a fun event and a great way to (re)discover my hometown.    I played numerous games of Scrabble with my parents, which is a very nostalgic thing for us to do as my grandma was a big Scrabble buff and used to compete in tournaments. I’m nowhere near as excellent as she was but, practice makes perfect 😜   I also spent time with my friends, eating wonderful Belgian dishes such as vol-au-vent, tomatoes with grey shrimps and, of course, my body weight in frites (aka chips or fries) and chocolate!    I also cuddled with my dog, Jax. I took the opportunity to give him his bi-annual bath and that was quite an experience as this boy is not a fan of water. Patience, peanut butter

  Hey everyone,   I hope you've had a lovely weekend.    Just wanted to let you know that I will be away for a couple of days this week. I'm crossing my fingers and toes, but the UK weather is actually looking quite bright and sunny so I'm off for an ice-cream at the beach and to maybe get some surfing in if the surfing gods are with me!    I'm leaving you in safe hands whilst I'm away, @Emilie_B ​ will be here, so if you need anything please do @ mention her or send her a DM.    We have another busy week of content this week, so keep any eye out for that.  If you missed it last week we celebrated our 2nd community birthday (it would be great to hear from you on that post) and also we shared Feature Drop (Android 16) 🎉 last week too. Plus, I love this new post by @Alex_Muc  with a tutorial on making Sushi - so your plans for the weekend are already sorted! 😀    In the meantime, I hope you have a great week an

Hey everyone,    I just wanted to let you know that I’ll be off for a couple of weeks - I know I’ve only been around for a hot minute but this was booked a while back so, I must leave you and go on holiday ​​😜   I’ll be hanging with my friends, my folks and this lovely boy (his name is Jax):     I will also be stuffing my face with the finest foods Belgium has to offer: chips, chocolate, waffles (from Brussels and Liège), speculoos and grey shrimp croquettes.   @Lizzie will be around while I’m away so, you will be in the best hands possible!  Feel free to reach out to her with any questions, concerns or even just to have a chat about pizza toppings…Thank you for holding the fort, Lizzie 🫶   And, just like the Terminator, I will be back on June 9th, ready to hop back into all things Android Enterprise 🎊   Chat soon,  Emilie

I hope you're all doing well! I run a blog centered around Collectible Items , and I'm considering expanding my reach by creating an Android app. The goal is to make it easier for users to access the latest posts, news, and discussions on collectibles directly from their smartphones.I would love to get suggestions or guidance on how to proceed with creating an Android app for my website. Specifically, I am looking for:Recommendations on the best tools or platforms for building an Android app for a blog-based website.Insights on integrating my WordPress site into the app for seamless content syncing.Best practices for designing a user-friendly app for a community-based blog.Any tips on monetizing the app (ads, in-app purchases, etc.).If anyone has experience with creating Android apps for blogs or similar projects, your input would be greatly appreciated!Looking forward to your suggestions

Hi everyone! Posted this in the off topic part of the community since my question has absolutely nothing to do with work but more with what I like to do outside office hours.  I have a motorcycle which I use to explore Europe, preferably besided the paved roads. Therefore I use an old phone with DMD2 app for navigation purposed. Its an old Nokia 7.2. It was slow when I bought it, and it sloooow now😂. Screen isn't easy to read and its just to small. I'm not enjoying using it and its getting annoying.  So i'm in the market for a rugged device and have a short list:Samsung Tab Active 3 or 5Looking for 1000nits brightness, and those don't reach thatPogo connection is a plus over USB-CDMD T865 or DMD T865XPerfect device, but expensive, not sure if I want to spend that kind of money nowRandom cheap tablet such as the HDM T21, or Samsung tab A9 with a rugged caseNot dust proof enough, not bright enough, and USb-C charging isn't optimal In my search for a rugged

Hello everyone,   I’m pleased to let you know that we have made an upgrade to the Android Enterprise Customer Community. Thank you for all your patience whilst we implemented this.    While most of the upgrade is in the backend, if you are reading this message I’m sure you have already noticed an update to the look and layout of the community! 🙂   We've taken the opportunity to implement changes based on the valuable feedback many of you have provided over the past 18 months, since the launch of Customer Community, particularly around finding content and knowing where to post.    What’s new?   New community board layout: we’ve simplified the navigation and reduced the amount of boards. On the header you will see the main areas: News & info: this hasn’t changed too much, however this now contains the community information and guidelines. Discussions: is a central place to create topics and interact with other members. Share your feedback, quest

Hello everyone,   I hope you've all had a restful and enjoyable holiday break. As we step into a new year, I wanted to wish you a very great 2025, both professionally and personally.    I also want to thank those of you who contributed to the community in 2024. It was our first full year as the customer community (which feels very strange saying, as it feels so much longer). We've had some fantastic conversations, shared lots of great insights and helped many peers troubleshoot their questions.  The feedback shared in 2024 has already made a difference and had an impact, which has been amazing to see. Plus, we've also got to know quite a few new faces here in the community. 🌟 A massive thank you to all of you.    I also wanted to do some special shoutouts to: @Moombas, @jasonbayton, @Alex_Muc, @BenMcc, @jeremy, @jarmo_akkanen, @mattdermody, @Timmy, @Michel, @matsm, @Rakib. @weberda,&n

Hello everyone,    From Monday 2nd - Friday 6th December, here in the Android Enterprise Customer Community we are hosting our very first community festival to celebrate the end of the year. It's a great way for us all to come together and chat with each other on some interesting topics and articles created by fellow community members.   Each day this week, a different community member has agreed to take part and write an article/post on a particular topic of interest for us here in the community. These posts will be on a mixture of subject areas; some Android specific and some tech inspired.   How can I get involved? Keep an eye out for all the festival posts throughout this week and please do get involved in conversations, even just to say - great post!  😀  I'm sure all of those creating a topic would love to see your replies.     Take a look at the community posts below: 👏   1st day: Highlighting 3 great resour

Hello everyone,    It's quite hard to avoid anything Halloween related right now, so in essence of that, I thought if you can't beat them, join them - happy Halloween everyone!    As we gear up for one of the spookiest nights of the year (or several nights), I thought it would be great to share our 'tricks' or 'treats' for the device mobility world. If you are reading this after halloween it would still be great to hear from you,   What are your tips for preventing being spooked with mobility management? Or what treats make your job easier?     Some examples could be... Tips for preventing nightmares with devices? Such as what to do if a device get covered in food or drink!  What new features or tools that make your jobs easier  Feature ideas for things which would be a real 'treat' to see!   Wishing you all a fun time if you are celebrating this, and looking forward to hearing from you.    Lizzie

Hello everyone,   It's hard to believe it's been a year since we launched this amazing community! In that short time, you've all come together to share knowledge, solve problems, and help each other navigate the world of using Android for work.   Here are a few personal highlights: Our community has grown to over 3500 registered members and you’ve marked over 140 topics as having an accepted solution! 🎉 Introduced a new service announcement board, to help you better monitor potentially business critical issues - a huge thank you to all of you who have reported and tested fixes. Your feedback is making an impact, one great example of this is based on your experiences in the community this best practices article was created to help other customers in future. So keep it coming!  You’ve shared some fantastic tips and experiences on a range of topics; such as what to consider when choosing your EMM and not forgetting two community created gui

I've been experiencing issues with my Android device getting too hot recently. It affects the performance and sometimes even causes the device to shut down. I thought it would be helpful to start a discussion to share possible causes and solutions for this problem 

Hello everyone,   I hope you are doing well.   I just wanted to let you know I will be away from the Customer Community from 27th August - 6th September. If anyone has any tips for visiting Montréal, I'd love to hear them.  😀   In the meantime, I leave you in good hands as my teammates in the Customer Success Team will be keeping an eye on the community.   If you spot any posts that you feel goe against the spirit of the Community please do highlight via the 'Report...' button, in the options dropdown on each post.     Otherwise, I will look forward to speaking with you once I get back.    Thanks so much, Lizzie

Hello everyone,   I hope you have had a good week.    Whether you work in a company office/environment or work from your living room table, perhaps a mix of the two-the space around us is important. A environment that you enjoy being in can greatly impact the amount of time you want to be there for and how you work.    Inspired by a conversation with a fellow community member earlier in the week @Alex_Muc, I thought I'd start a discussion for us all to share a little more about our work areas. Perhaps your office building has colourful walls or artwork displays, or on your home desk you have a very nice pot plant!    I'll kick us off, I spend a few days in the office during the week and a few days on my living room table! I find I work differently in both. I enjoy my living room table as I have a room that has lots of light flooding in, but I do have to tidy up the table at the end of the day. My office desk, I have a couple of folks to keep me compan

Hi all, I'm looking for Android bot movie files without background to use on a Samsung flip cover. I've designed my own cover face and want to add a moving Android bot.  I downloaded one available from the Google branding page (Icon - Partner Marketing Hub), which I converted to multiple png files to create a sequence. Works good enough but is not perfect, and I find them a bit boring to be honest.  anyone know of a place where I can find more of these typ  of files?  Preferably a sequence of PNG files, or a gif without background. But I could work with MP4 of MOV files aswell. Thanks! Michel
