Google is making your smart devices play nicer together


Quick Share for all.

Nowhere is that more apparent than the OLED-paneled halls of the Las Vegas Convention Center during CES, where Google is announcing some small efforts to get the wide constellation of gadgets in its ecosystem talking to each other a little more easily. This will only work with Spotify and YouTube Music at launch, and only with the Pixel Tablet, but Google VP of engineering Erik Kay says that the company is “definitely looking to bring this feature to more devices over time.” Kay didn’t comment on this exactly but conceded that the two companies have been “working together even more closely” and said we should “expect more of that to come.” Intriguing, but something tells me we won’t be seeing Bixby on a Pixel phone anytime soon.
