Chrome OS update automatically brings photos from Android to your Chromebook - Ars Technica

Google announced Chrome 103 on Thursday, making it easier to share photos from Android to your Chromebook.

In Chrome 103, photos you take on your Android Phone will automatically show up in the Phone Hub under a new "Recent photos" section.

Chrome 103 gives you the ability to connect a Chromebook to a saved Wi-Fi network.

The next time a new Chromebook connects to your network, you won't have to find your Wi-Fi password to set it up if your Android phone is already connected.

On an Android phone, you just go to the Wi-Fi network, hit Share, then tap a "Nearby" tile under a QR code.

Afterward, you'll be able to see the Chromebook and can connect it to the Wi-Fi network, the blog said.

"Nearby Share will deliver the Wi-Fi credentials (as in the network name and password), and the Chromebook will automatically connect to the Wi-Fi.

Kuscher also said that Chrome 103 will get a Fast Pair Bluetooth update "later this summer." The feature should allow you to connect Bluetooth devices, like headphones, without having to figure out which button to press on the product or do anything in the Chromebook settings other than turning Bluetooth on.
