And just like that, it’s been two weeks and I’m back!
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 and relaxing classical music did the trick 🙏 Now, what have I missed? How are you enjoying the podcast? Who has signed up for the Android Talks on Device Trust? Also, I’ve seen a lot of you have helped resolve the G-board issue last week so, great work, team! It’s nice to be back in our community �� Chat soon, EmilieLizzie away: 16-19 June 2025
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 and can't wait to hear about it once I'm back. Take care, Lizzie[Community Team Update] Welcoming Emilie to the team...
Hello everyone, I hope you are all doing well and are having a nice week. I’d like to update you all on some exciting community team news - trumpet fare please! Introducing Emilie_B , who will be joining me here in the Customer Community team. Emilie will be continuing to help with the smooth running of the community and in making this a great place for you to interact with others and share all things Android related. Please join me in welcoming her here by replying below or when you see her around in the community. Thanks so much, LizzieBig news! Community Upgrade!
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, questions and knowledge with using Android for work. Resources: this is a new hub for guides, tips and events. We’ve combined the blog boards together, so you have one key area to explore, as well as the events page. More visible tagging: finding the content you are interested in is a key area for the community. So you will see tags are far more prominent on posts and boards. You can also follow tags (as well as boards) you like (and you will be notified when a new post has been given this tag). You will find the follow buttons on each page across the community too. To check which board or tags you already follow click on the board or visit 'My Settings' in your community account. More community collaboration: we are lucky to have some fantastic and knowledgeable contributors here in the community who spend time helping each other and also create guides or interesting topic discussions. More visibility of the original author when a post is created and featured on the homepage In blogs: you will see that multiple people can co-author a blog article (an article often involves multiple contributors and so now this can be shown) I’d like to take this opportunity to give a special thanks to those active members who provided feedback and helped us to test this before pushing it live. Alex_Muc, Michel, Moombas, jeremy jasonbayton, mattdermody, Rakib, JordanOC, Rose (and to everyone who provided additional feedback across the community). As this is a large update, we expect there are still things that aren’t quite 100% settled and so you still may see a few things updating, but if you spot something not working as expected, please do let us know. It would be fantastic to hear what you think of the changes and if you have any other suggestions for the future. Thank you so much and exciting times ahead. Lizzie (and the Community Team)Customer Community: information for Partners
Hello everyone, Welcome to the community! The Android Enterprise Customer Community is aimed at those setting up, managing and using Android for work. As Partners are a key part to our ecosystem, you might be wondering how you can get involved. Here are a few tips: Is there a Partner Community? Is this a new community? Can I join the Customer Community? Can I answer a question, if I know the answer? I regularly receive Android specific questions from customers, can I post them in the community? Can I tell my customers about this community, as a useful resource? Can I promote my services here? Can I create a guide/post in the Customer Community which I think will be useful? Visit our Customer Community homepage to get started. If you have any questions, please do reply below, otherwise I look forward to speaking with around the community. Thank you, Lizzie
