Bard now integrates with various Google apps and services to provide more useful feedback. With the Browser Extension, Bard can locate and display relevant information from the Google tools you use daily, such as Gmail, Docs, Drive, Google Maps, YouTube, Google Flights, and hotels, even when the information you need is spread across multiple apps and services.

To help make Target API level deadlines clearer, we are unifying the dates to August 31 every year.
Starting August 31, 2023:
New apps must target Android 13 (API level 33) or higher; except for Wear OS apps, which must target Android 11 (API level 30) or up to Android 13 (API level 33).
Existing apps must target API level 31 or above to remain available to users on devices running Android OS higher than your app’s target API level. Apps that target API level 30 or below (target API level 29 or below for Wear OS), will only be available on devices running Android OS same or lower than your apps’ target API level.
You’ll be able to request an extension until November 1, 2023, if you need more time to update your app. You’ll be able to access your app’s extension forms in Play Console in early August if you are impacted, via the Policy status page by clicking through to the relevant warning or issue.

Google Search Console added a new Shopping tab listing issues report that will notify merchants when products stop appearing on the Shopping tab due to any issues, Google said. This is similar information that you can get in Google Merchant Center but it is also now able to be displayed in Search Console.
With the first advanced feature, sellers will be notified when their products no longer appear on the Shopping Card due to issues. The second advanced feature allows sellers to identify opportunities to increase clicks and improve the product’s ranking on Google.
To use these new advanced features in the Shopping Card’s Information Page report, you need to link your assets in Search Console to a Merchant Center account. Any asset owner in Search Console with administrative rights related to a Merchant Center account can easily set up this connection. Once you’ve established the link, all users in the Search Console for that asset will have the opportunity to experience these new features.
