Samsung’s Galaxy XR already felt a bit like the opening act for something bigger, and now Google and Samsung are continuing to flesh it out. A new Android XR update rolling out today adds several features aimed at making the headset more immersive and more natural to use.
In a Google blog post published alongside Samsung’s own announcement, the company outlined five new Android XR features coming to Galaxy XR. The most attention-grabbing is auto-spatialization, which launches as an experimental feature and can add depth to almost any app, game, website, image, or video. Google specifically mentions YouTube videos, 2D games, and websites in Chrome, and says you can enable the feature in the Labs tab under Advanced features in Settings. Check out the video at the top of the article to see it in practice.
