Android Wear Companion App Updated; Teardown Reveals Upcoming Features

Google has updated the Android Wear companion app. Bumping up the version number to 1.4, the update brings with it several features and while teardown hints at several more features that the company has could have planned for future updates.
As for the visible changes, the updated Android Wear companion app - which is currently not yet listed on Google Play India, and has gradually begun rolling out to devices - has made some amendments to the screen of the Settings app. The Cloud sync toggle has been moved from the main list to under Privacy & personal data. In there, you will also find a new toggle with the sole job to make it possible for you to send diagnostic information to Google.
The Settings screen now allows users to enable or disable tip cards in the main screen of the watch. The company has seemingly pulled the battery statistics, which is seeming a sad trade-off as many users found it useful.
More interestingly, the app teardown has revealed the features Google plans to bring in the upcoming releases. Folks at Android Police tore down the app to find that Google plans to add the call receiving ability to smartwatches that have a speaker, among several other features.it is having wats app and we chat etc.,

Judge allows gender-bias case against Microsoft to proceed

A federal judge has allowed a class-action lawsuit alleging gender discrimination by Microsoft to proceed. US District Judge James Robart of Seattle in an order Friday denied the company's request to dismiss key claims by women in the suit. The Seattle Times reports the judge said three women suing Microsoft were specific enough in their claims. He also said they presented a plausible case that Microsoft's pay and promotion practices had the effect of treating female and male engineers differently. Microsoft says the performance review system was not arbitrary, and has denied the women's allegations of discrimination.The ruling sets into motion what could be months of wrangling over what documents Microsoft and the plaintiffs must turn over and the roster of outside experts both can ask to weigh in.
