Google announced the release of multiple new features for Android and WearOS. WearOS is the operating system for smart watches that run on Google platform. These features had multiple angles to it. Three out of the nine features focused on Google Keep and making you more productive by using the note taking app of Google, which is Google Keep on your watch, on your phone and with widgets. There were other cosmetic announcements like display animations, but one of the very useful features that they announced is the ability for you to customize chrome on your Android phone for your vision preference. If there are visually challenged people who would like to have font size increase or display the content on Chrome in a certain manner, you now can customize it. The announcement says you can easily increase the size of content, including text, videos, images, and interactive controls. Seems like quite a useful feature.
