Google photos for iOS app used to have an Assistant tab with amazing funny things like animations other things.
Now that I’ve got the latest version 5.0 I can’t find it anymore.
I found that the new creations are hidden inside the Recent Highlights item but it’s very inconvenient as it mixes both plain old photos with creations.
Very bad UI IMHO.

a newbie question.
I want to make it easy for users to create a shortcut to use Siri with a watchKit app. The app runs as a companion to an iOS version.
Where I've gotten so far: Users can successfully use Siri to make a voice request for each of the watchKit and iOS apps via intent extensions that I’ve created. That is, they can do so after a shortcut is available (e.g. “Hey Siri, jot myself”).
I would love to programmatically help users create both of these shortcuts. I’m stuck on the watchKit side, though.
The closest I’ve been able to get to make it easy for users to create shortcuts is:
On the iOS app, as part of the app's onboarding, provide an “Add to Siri” button. (This works fine)
Then, ask the user to go into Shortcuts in iOS, find the shortcut, look at its “Details” and toggle “Show on Apple Watch”. (This seems like it would be hard for users and I’m afraid asking them to do it will lose them.)
Is there a better way to help users set up the watchKit shortcut? Advice appreciated.
I am working on a Google Glass application that will apply a filter and then take pictures. We used to use Card and TimelineManager to do this, but both were discontinued.
I'm currently using CardBuilder in replacement of Card, and I am able to take the photo and save it in Glass memory, but I would also like the photos to show up with the rest of the pictures taken outside my application (directly from Glass).
Most suggestions I found to publishing to Timeline require using Mirror. However, I don't want my application to require Internet access. Is there a way to publish to the Timeline without using Mirror?
I'm new to Glass and Android coding so any help will be appreciated :)
I've never tried TimelineManager before but I think Live cards is what you're looking for. It's used for publishing information to the timeline. No access to the internet required.
The doc has the sample code and some sample apps also use it.
Note: Static card is not supported by GDK as of now.
Hope this helps.
So there are two things. If you want the picture to appear to the left of the time (which would mean foreverish) then you want to use Live Card as suggested above. However, if you want to add it to the timeline (which is to the right of the time) then you can't add that via the GDK anymore.
Google felt that the Mirror API was built specifically for this and the Timeline Manager defeated the purpose of it so it was removed.
I'm building a small social WP plugin (more for learning purposes than anything else) and I'm trying to get my head around the various social networking sharing api's etc.
With regards to Facebook sharing, there seems to be the requirement for an application ID. Thats easy enough if this a one time thing, on a single site, but in the case of writing a plugin, I obviously would want it to be easy for users to install and setup, and not neccessarily have every user have to put one in from an options panel.
It seems to work when removing it from the FB.init, though I'm developing locally, and get an error when trying to use the like button.
Is an APP ID 100% required? and if so can I as a plugin author use one (think this gets paired with a website URL so not sure if its even possible) or the plugin that would
Anyone experienced with this got any tips?
For using the feed dialog, you do need an App (with ID). But you can - of course - just use your own App and just put it in the plugin. The App ID is nothing secret, and with that way you can also monitor the usage with the Facebook Insights.
There is one option without the feed dialog: sharer.php
It is exlained here: How to use Facebook Sharer in PHP
Just keep in mind that it is deprecated though (see other thread).
i wanna create alumni association website using drupal.so user(student,alumni,staff) can sign up/login using facebook/linked in.their details should be fetch from their social network profile.so which module is suitable for this criteria.Thanks in advance.suggest me.
Let me share my experience with Drupal and Facebook and related modules.
Out of all the modules in there, I liked drupal for facebook the most. It is very simple to configure, works nice. The drawback is it is a bit heavy and it still does not support some modern facebook stuff (like opengraph, custom actions etc). But no doubt it is the best module regarding to Facebook, I have ever used.
Now comes the problem of using Drupal modules with Facebook. All of them I found uses PHP-sdk and is slow and not modern stuff friendly (reloads the page once the user is logged in etc.).
Now you have two choices,
1. if you are into programming or can hire one for this small task, create a small module (one javascript file and one php file, that's it) and be done with it. I have done that quite nicely, though it was my first drupal module. If you want I (and a lot of people) can help you with the coding part.
2. If you don't want that, go with drupal for facebook.
The start-up i currently work for is oriented around restaurant wait times. For our v1.25 specifications our clients -restaurants- that have Facebook pages want to be able to communicate to their app profile from their Facebook page.
The closest i have came to answering this question is the Graph API. However, the Graph API only allows us to read and write data to FB pages. So, is there a way for a restaurants FB page to write to its app profile? Secondly, Loso, whom we have modeled some of our designs from has this ability, does anyone have an idea as to how they have done it?

Here is an option that you can consider...
When you are designing the app you can also develop a page tab to go with it...
You will find this option in the basic settings of the app.
You can make it to install for all first time users of your app, by getting a list of all his pages he created using that profile then install it on the one he selects.
This page tab when installed on a page will appears just where other tabs on the page appers(e.g. events, notes etc. occurs)
You can provide your required functionality on this tab as you like.
Thus the user can just select that tab on the page and use its functionality to post on the profile page of the app.
Hope this works for you... and also u can check out the jobcaster app it does something like that!
