Earlier in the year, Google announced that it would be merging its Android Pay and Google Wallet services under one new umbrella called "Google Pay." A little more than a month later, the Google Pay app is now rolling out to users via an update on the Play Store. The initial launch does not bring anything new to the table and is basically the beginning of the rebrand.
Android Messages
Android smartphone owners that use Android Messages can now send and receive text messages from their computer. The feature, which rolled-out worldwide today, means users can continue to send and receive messages in their text threads even when their phone isn't to hand. Text, photographs, and stickers are all supported in the web browser version of Android Messages.
BBM
BlackBerry Messenger (BBM) will be put out of its misery today, finally closing down, following its failure to retain users while being unable to attract new ones.
