Starbucks's new Secret Menu is a perfect strategy to tap TikTok
Starbucks has been in a bit of a slump, facing stagnant growth as it awaits its new CEO Brian Niccol's turnaround. His strategy? Nicer stores you want to sit in. Protein-loaded coffee. And now . . . turning every day at Starbucks into a viral drop. The company is launching a 'secret menu' in its app today, building off the momentum of its 'not-so-secret menu' broadcast channel on Instagram. Secret menus, of course, are irresistible to the fleshy consumer brain. A mystery and treat in one! But in the case of Starbucks, it's part of a brilliant promotional strategy by its new chief brand officer Tressie Lieberman. How will Starbucks's Secret Menu work? The menu will contain rotating offers for drinks. But instead of being born inside its Seattle headquarters coffee lab, these drinks are created by fans on social media who use Starbucks's customization options to create particularly alluring beverages. 'That's what people do today: create their own Starbucks order,' says Lieberman. 'And so how do we tap into that?' Indeed, customization is a big part of Starbucks's appeal; you can order a drink just as you like it. But its menu has become so sprawling and complicated for baristas to produce that Niccol has actually cut it back by nearly a third to simplify production. What's brilliant about the Starbucks Secret Menu—which is launching with a $25,000 prize to stoke interest—is twofold: Instead of creating a TikTok trend, it can simply ride a TikTok trend, since people are already promoting their own custom drinks on the service. But the second component is just as important for a company with tens of thousands of locations worldwide. These glitzy, viral drinks are being made with the ingredients Starbucks already has lying around. In other words, it's all turnkey. Starbucks doesn't need to spin up a whole production supply chain to sell the equivalent of a McRib. It can just rearrange its food stuffs to make something novel, a lot like Taco Bell combines its shells and sauces to make something new—but crowdsourced. This strategy is a far cry from how Starbucks used to look at viral creations: as operational headaches that were at odds with its own business model. Instead, Starbucks can analyze a viral menu item, decide if it needs to be tweaked for scale, and then share it back with its audience in a way that can work. 'Some of the best ideas are coming from customers. Customers decide what's in; customers decide what's cool,' says Lieberman. '[With the Secret Menu] We're really just working to help put media behind [fans] and get more reach around new ideas. It's a lot about being visible, visible to our audience, and being really strategic about how we approach these different trends as well,' says Lieberman. She points to a recent viral drink called the Gummy Shark, where TikTokers took the Summer Berry Refresher and added cold foam so it would taste like the popular candy, as a recent proof point of this strategy. 'That's a gift from our customers,' says Lieberman. 'Let's jump on that. Let's create content around it and celebrate it, instead of moving away from it.' In other words, with its new Secret Menu, Starbucks is building a workflow so that they don't need to come up with their next hit, while ensuring that you can taste the wild thing you're gawking at online easily. (Its new point-of-sale terminals will even be getting a viral drinks tab so that if you walk into a store without your phone, you can order off this menu as well.) The only question remaining is, can a secret menu stay cool when it's available to millions of customers? Anyone who's ordered a speak-easy-inspired Neapolitan shake or animal style fries from In-N-Out knows…the answer is a sad and true, 'absolutely yes.'

Android's lock screen widgets are getting a slick new background blur effect
C. Scott Brown / Android Authority TL;DR A future Android update will give the lock screen widget page a blurred wallpaper background, aligning it with the Material 3 Expressive design language. This visual change, which replaces the current opaque colored background, was spotted in the new Android Canary build, making the UI more consistent. Although lock screen widgets are currently exclusive to tablets, Google has confirmed they will be coming to phones in the Android 16 QPR1 release. Material 3 Expressive, the latest version of Google's design language, brings a more visually engaging and playful feel to Android through a new physics-based animation system, vibrant colors, larger buttons, and background blur effects. While Google has updated many UI elements to Material 3 Expressive, some parts of the OS still use the old design. For example, the lock screen widgets page doesn't use the same background blur effect found elsewhere, but that's finally changing. Last week, Google launched the Android Canary program, giving developers year-round access to preview new Android features. The first Canary build is slightly newer than the latest Android 16 QPR1 beta, meaning it contains some changes not yet present in the beta. One of these changes affects the lock screen widget page, which now features a blurred version of your wallpaper. Here's a gallery showing what the lock screen widget page currently looks like in Android 16 QPR1 Beta 2: And here's a gallery showing what it looks like in the first Android Canary build: In the QPR1 beta, the lock screen widget page has an opaque background using your wallpaper's dominant color. The July Android Canary build, however, applies the same blurred wallpaper effect seen in the Recents screen, notification pulldown, and keyguard. This small visual tweak doesn't change functionality, but it aligns the lock screen widget page with the rest of Android's Material 3 Expressive design. Google reintroduced lock screen widget support in Android 15 QPR1, though the feature remains exclusive to tablets for now. The company has confirmed that lock screen widgets are coming to phones in Android 16 QPR1, but the feature isn't active in the current beta or Canary builds. With only one beta left in the Android 16 QPR1 program, we'll hopefully see the feature land on phones in the upcoming third beta release. Got a tip? Talk to us!

Google's Pixel 8 Pro is $599, and includes a free Pixel Watch 2
The Pixel 9A is a tempting phone for $499, but even more tempting is the 128GB Pixel 8 Pro, which is selling for $599 unlocked right now at the Google Store. Its perks are well worth the extra $100. You're getting a more robust camera system (the 5x telephoto lens is very good) and better build quality. Not only that, Google is including a free Pixel Watch 2 with LTE, along with one of its phone cases. The Pixel 8 Pro launched in late 2023, meaning it has just a little over five years of OS updates left before it's no longer supported. In other words, there's plenty of life left in this phone. This model has a 120Hz refresh rate OLED screen that can go down to 1Hz with its always-on display to save battery life. You'll be glad to have the free case, as the Pixel 8 Pro's back glass is matte-textured, which Verge reviewer Allison Johnson found made it more slippery to hold, not less. Read our review.
