Surat: A 20-year-old Bachelor of Commerce (BCom) student died by suicide in Rander area of the city on Sunday. She was reportedly distressed over her academic performance in her final semester. The young woman had been studying in Bhavnagar for the past three years and had moved to Surat about six weeks ago after her family relocated. Rander police have registered a case of accidental death and initiated further investigation. According to police officials, the victim was living with her mother and brother. Her mother works as a cook, while her brother is employed at a local factory. On Sunday morning, when both were away at work, the girl was alone at home and allegedly hanged herself. The preliminary probe revealed that she had received an ATKT (Allowed to Keep Term) in her last semester exams, which had deeply affected her. While her family shifted to Surat six months ago, she stayed back with her maternal uncle in Bhavnagar to complete her studies. She returned to Surat about six weeks ago and had reportedly been under stress since her results were declared.

Google's popular Keep app shows off more Matrial 3 Expressive changes
I would love to tell the Keep users who commented on my last story about the app, as this month began, that Google added password protection to the Keep app as you wanted. But alas, I can't. What I can tell you is that in a follow-up to that previous story, Google has started rolling out more changes to the app based on the Material 3 Expressive design. The first story discussed the new look for the Android variant of Keep found in version 5.25.252.00.90. The latest changes were spotted in version 5.25.282.00.90 of the Android version of Keep. The new look for the Keep app for Android has yet to appear on my Pixel 6 Pro running Android 16 QPR1 Beta 3. The Keep app on this phone is the correct version but it is obvious that Google has yet to flip the switch on the server-side update which is why the new look for the Google Keep app has not been widely disseminated by Google. Material 3 Expressive redesign of the Google Keep app for Android. | Image credit-PhoneArena The updated Material 3 Expressive update for Keep features a thicker search bar with a hamburger icon to the left. The search field reads Google Keep when the app is loaded before it switches to "Search Keep." The icon to switch from a single to a multi-column is on the right of the field. Another change is coming to the Notes section of the app. The buttons are inside containers, including those at the bottom left of the screen. The pin, reminder, and archive buttons at the top-right corner of the display are placed inside squircles. The Google Keep app is available for iOS and Android and helps you create lists and notes. You can record meetings or classes and get written transcripts. With the app, you'll be able to create written notes or save files containing images fresh from your camera or your gallery in the Google Photos app. You can set up a reminder to help you get things done. If you're the creative type, you can record a tune that you've just come up with in your head. Or save some lyrics that you have just thought of. You can even draw that new cartoon character you had a dream about one night. Another look at the Google Keep app for Android with the Material 3 Expressive redesign. | Image credit-PhoneArena The one-size-fits-all app is also great for you power users for those times when a great idea for a merger, or a new design for the company logo, pops into your head. Google Keep also allows you to make a great shopping list. To install Keep on your Android phone, tap on this link to the Google Play Store, from where you can install the app on your Android phone .

Google Keep reminders will soon move to Tasks: Here's what's changing
In April last year, Google announced that Keep reminders would be automatically saved to Tasks sometime in 2025, but did not share details on when the change would go live. Now, on its support page, the tech giant has confirmed that Keep reminders will integrate with Tasks in the coming months before the end of the year. And while Google is yet to share the exact date, the company has shared some more details about its plan. According to the tech giant, the upcoming integration will make it easier for users to organise and manage all their to-dos in one place. Google says you can also ask Assistant or Gemini to set a reminder on your device or smart display, which will then be saved as a task in Google Tasks, with the app sending you a reminder when it's time to complete the task. If a reminder is based on a location, the location will automatically be added to the task's details field, but you will no longer get a notification based on that location. In case you are assigned a reminder by someone else, the assigner's name will be added to the task's title, but they won't have access to that reminder. Also, if you leave a task incomplete, it will show up on your calendar for up to 365 days as a 'Pending task' in the all-day section of the calendar. Google will also allow you to manage reminders that are converted to tasks using Assistant commands like 'Hey Google, show me my tasks' or 'Hey Google, show me my reminders.' One thing to note here is that you don't necessarily need the Tasks app installed to use reminders with Google Assistant. Apart from Google Tasks, you can also get task notifications from the Calendar and the Google app.

Gemini Live just got a whole lot more useful for your Samsung Galaxy phone
TL;DR Google recently introduced a new Gemini Live feature that lets users perform actions within other Google apps during a conversation. The feature initially supported actions within Google Maps, Calendar, Keep, and Tasks, but it now works with a few Samsung apps. Google has confirmed that Galaxy users can now perform actions within Samsung Calendar, Notes, and Reminders during a Gemini Live conversation. Google recently introduced a new Gemini Live feature that lets you interact with other Google apps during a conversation. The feature currently allows users to perform various actions within Google Maps, Calendar, Keep, and Tasks mid-conversation. However, we recently spotted evidence suggesting it could soon support additional apps, like YouTube, Spotify, WhatsApp, and Drive. Although support for these apps has yet to go live, Google has announced that the feature now works with a few Samsung apps. Samsung today lifted the covers off the highly anticipated Galaxy Z Fold 7, Flip 7, and Flip 7 FE. The new devices are the first from the company to feature One UI 8 based on Android 16, which introduces a host of new Galaxy AI features. In addition, the phones bring a few new Google AI capabilities that will soon roll out to other Android phones. These include improvements for Circle to Search and support for Gemini Live on the Galaxy Z Flip 7's cover screen. Furthermore, Samsung's latest phones are the first to bring Gemini Live integration for three stock One UI apps. Google says Gemini Live on these devices will allow users to perform actions within Samsung Calendar, Notes, and Reminders. Although the company has not shared a complete list of supported actions, we believe the feature will allow users to create calendar entries, reminders, and notes during conversations. It's not yet clear if users will also be able to edit or retrieve information from existing calendar entries, reminders, and notes. However, Google has confirmed that it plans to add support for apps from more device makers in the future. Got a tip? Talk to us! Email our staff at Email our staff at news@ .

A photographer made a bizarre contraption to catch Erin Patterson. The gamble paid off
In news photography, getting 'the shot' is partly down to planning and good luck. On Monday, May 12 – two weeks into Erin Patterson's trial in the usually quiet Victorian country town of Morwell – most of the photographers and journalists covering the murder trial were taking the opportunity of a jury-free day to get some well-earned rest. Martin Keep, though, ventured out into the bitter cold, a custom rig mounted to his body with studio flashes twisted around his camera. It was something that Keep, who was photographing the trial for Agence France-Presse, his colleagues, and Age photographer Jason South had never seen before – a bizarre creation, born out of a chance find at former Jetstar pilot Greg Lynn's trial almost a year before. For years in Melbourne, photographers haven't bothered chasing police vans, thinking they couldn't capture the scene inside. 'But the Greg Lynn case changed all that,' South said. '[ Age colleague] Joe Armao got a picture inside [Lynn's] van without anybody in it, and he showed me. He said: 'You can see in there.' I spent days and days, and got Greg Lynn in that van. 'Martin was on the [Patterson] job with me, and he was asking how, and what, and where. On the first day, he did actually get a really dark, soft and grainy photo of [Patterson] in the van. 'He went home and thought on how he could make it better, and he built this whole rig to go around the camera … then he had the most amazing luck.' Patterson also wasn't expecting any media to bother showing up at Morwell Police Station on May 12; she thought they'd spare themselves the boring legal argument, South suggested. Photographers had two chances a week to capture her in the van – when she was en route to and from the Dame Phyllis Frost Centre in Melbourne's west. On May 12, Keep thought he'd test out his rig for the first time, and caught her staring dead-eyed through the window of the police van. In his images, her shock at being photographed is visceral. Her face falls before she turns away from the camera, covering her face with her hands, in a now-iconic set of photographs. 'After that series of flashes through the window, [photographers] never saw her again,' South said. 'She would dive underneath the window, or … [sit with] the back of her head on the window, so there's no chance of seeing her. She'd ride like that all the way to Melbourne – 165 kilometres back.' A stakeout and Erin Patterson's only interview About nine months before Keep captured Patterson in the police van, the news first broke that three people died after a family lunch in Leongatha, about 60 kilometres south-west of Morwell. The Age crime reporter Marta Pascual Juanola, based in Melbourne, grabbed her camera gear and raced down to South Gippsland to begin what then became an eight-day reporting trip to cover the biggest crime story of the year. On August 7, she'd spent most of the morning trying to figure out who the victims were, and who had cooked the fateful meal, before she landed the tip that gave her their names. She managed to track down Patterson's address, where she knew the lunch was held, and parked outside her house for hours, waiting for the mother of two to emerge and engage with the waiting media pack. When Patterson finally came outside, Pascual Juanola was there, waiting with her DSL camera to capture the moment. Holding her phone with one hand to record her comments and using the other to shoot her portrait, the reporter captured an emotional Patterson as she told journalists she loved the people who had attended the lunch. Looking up into the sky as if searching for answers, Patterson dabbed at her eyes with a tissue – but did not appear to have any tears. The result was a Quill Award-nominated series of compelling portraits, which captured Patterson's emotional appeal for sympathy in what would become her only interview with the media. A 'lesson in patience' For Jason South, covering Patterson's triple-murder case was one of the most difficult jobs of his decades-long career, for one reason alone. 'There's so little variety to shoot,' South said. 'You're shooting the same people, at the same place, for 10 weeks straight. Trying to make interesting pictures in the ninth and tenth week was a real lesson in patience. 'Then you add having to get there in the early morning to get people queuing up, and trying to grab a frame of the prosecutor, who would always try and sneak in before the media. 'You'd have early mornings in the sometimes sub-zero temperatures, and then be there at 4.30pm in the afternoon, when they come out.' South and other media initially thought the trial would go for about a month. He ended up having to tell his family, repeatedly, 'just one more week'. His 18-year-old and 22-year-old children caught onto the delay, and it became a running joke. 'When I came home, they quipped, 'are you my daddy?',' South says with a laugh.
