Spotify’s been having some trouble this year keeping ads away from Premium subscribers. While those incidents were not intentional, a persistent rumor claims that Spotify is bringing ads to Premium. The company is publicly denying that claim, insisting that “Premium music listening is and will remain ad-free.” Life used to be so simple: We could enjoy content for free (like listening to music on the radio) and have to sit through some advertising, or we could choose to pay for our content (like buying an album) and get to enjoy it ad-free. That dichotomy didn’t take long to start crumbling, though, and these days we tolerate ads in paid services ranging from cable TV to the cheapest Netflix plan. Lately, we’ve been paying a lot of attention to Spotify Premium, because this is one paid service that’s resisted ad creep, rightfully earning its “premium” name. At least, that’s the way it’s supposed to work, but on a couple separate instances over the past few months, Spotify Premium users were hearing ads that they weren’t meant to. The company insisted this was all in error, and managed to restore ad-free playback, but apparently it hasn’t been able to fully shake the specter of these incidents.

Credit: Kaitlyn Cimino / Android Authority The Google Pixel Watch 3 Loss of Pulse Detection feature is now available in the United States. It was previously launched in many European countries and the UK, but thanks to earning FDA clearance, it is finally here in the US. As you’d expect, the feature monitors your pulse and looks for drops, which could indicate cardiac arrest, respiratory or circulatory failure, or other problems. Last year, Google started rolling out an incredible new feature for the Pixel Watch 3: Loss of Pulse Detection. This first-of-its-kind smartwatch feature monitors your pulse and, if it sees a drop, causes the smartwatch to trigger a response. Many European countries and the United Kingdom have been using this for months now. However, it was only in March 2025 that Google received FDA clearance for the feature. Finally, today, Google is rolling out Loss of Pulse Detection to the Pixel Watch 3 in the United States. This makes one of the best smartwatches you can buy even better.
