21	JH	This episode of All About Android is brought to you by Eight Sleep. Good sleep is the ultimate game changer and the Pod Cover is the ultimate sleep machine. Consistent good sleep can help reduce the likelihood of serious health issues, decrease the risk of heart disease, lower blood pressure, and even reduce the risk of Alzheimer's. Do you struggle to fall asleep, wake up in the middle of the night, or argue with your partner over the thermostat? The Eight Sleep Pod Cover works hard all night long to improve your sleep so you don’t have to. In my house, I'm the one who wants sleep to be super warm. That's my comfort zone. My wife likes things cooler. That's what makes Eight Sleep so awesome. I can keep my side of the bed a bit warmer than she does and well, we both get our way! The Pod Cover fits on any mattress and allows you to adjust the temperature of your sleeping environment, providing the optimal temperature that gets you the best night's sleep. The Pod Cover features dual zone temperature control so you and your partner can set your sides of the bed to as cool as 55°F or as hot as 110°F. Based on your biometrics, environment, and sleep stages, the Pod Cover makes temperature adjustments throughout the night that limit wake ups and increase your percentage of deep sleep. In addition to its best-in-class temperature regulation, the Pod Cover has sensors that also track your health and sleep metrics, without the need to use any wearable devices. Better sleep is the health habit you’ll love sticking to, night after night. Wake up fully energized with the Pod Cover so you can tackle whatever life throws at you.

32	JH	This episode of All About Android is brought to you by Tanium. The industry’s approach to cybersecurity is fundamentally flawed! IT management and security point tools offer only a small piece of the solution needed to protect your environment. And many of them promise they can stop all breaches when they simply can’t. Making decisions based on stale data and trying to defend your critical assets from cyberattacks with tools that don’t talk to each other is no way for IT teams to navigate today's attack surface. It's time for a different approach. Tanium says it’s time for a convergence of tools, endpoints, and IT operations and security. They have solutions for government entities, education, financial services, retail and healthcare. Trust their solutions for every workflow that relies on endpoint data. Asset Discovery and Inventory - Track down every IT asset you own instantaneously. Risk and Compliance Management - Find and fix vulnerabilities at scale in seconds. Threat Hunting - Hunt for sophisticated adversaries in real time. Client Management - Automate operations from discovery to management. Sensitive Data Monitoring - Index and monitor sensitive data globally in seconds. Tanium protects organizations where other endpoint management and security providers have failed. With a single platform, Tanium identifies where all your data is across your entire IT estate, patches every device you own in seconds, and implements critical security controls all from a single pane of glass. Kevin Bush, the Vice President of IT at Ring Power Corp. says “Tanium brings visibility to one screen for our whole team. If you don’t have that kind of visibility, you’re not going to be able to sleep at night.” Call to Action (verbatim - URL 2 times) With real-time data comes real-time impact! If you’re ready to unite operations and security teams with a single source of truth and confidently protect your organization from cyber threats, it’s time you met Tanium.

50	JH	Long time listener here from Singapore. I'm originally a OnePlus user, and before that a Nexus owner. My previous 2 phones were the original Nord and the Nord CE. Both were exceptional devices until they got update to the latest (Color OS). This annoyed me and forced me to change the Nord to the Nothing phone. I'm still using the CE though. The color OS is just terrible to use, especially when they removed the app drawer (pop-up) search function where I can immediately type to search for apps without having to tap my fingers at the top of the screen to type and search. I still use the CE because it's battery is so good, can easily last me 2 days when I just use it for reading. Anyway, that's my rant about the downfall of OnePlus. If you would like to know more about anything related to the android market here in Singapore or Malaysia you can ask me anytime. Have a great day and thank you for your great podcast! Ken

52	RR	I came across a Nothing phone in the wild in Dubai. I have a limited picture since I saw it in the hands of a clerk in a liquor store and it's a bit of a touchy subject here. I also noticed a giant billboard across the street from me on the main highway. I'm not sure when it will make it to the U.S., but they're investing here. Love the show, Mike

55	HTD	I bought the Pixel 7 and a galaxy watch 5 in October, just an upgrade. After purchasing I was very happy with both of them but after using them I fell like they have some essential features missing, like a better split screen mode in pixel UI or some sort tv remote app and podcast app in wear os. But I don't know where to request these new features from Android development team except the AAA podcast or Twitter. Do you guys have any suggestions where the android community can post new features ideas to Google and Android development team and have them see it because now a days you cannot trust Twitter do it. And please don't say Google pixel community help center. Bavneet Singh		Send feedback through the Google app
