Acceding to 9to5Google in their close look at the code of new Android Pay app, Google could be looking to implement facial recognition.

A very long wait for android wear 2.0 for Asus Zenwatch 3 users is finally over. Asus on their official twitter account has confirmed that the Android Wear 2.0 update for Zenwatch 3 has been rolling out since yesterday.

The OS has been under development since its launch in May, so it would be very nice if it hits more watches.
