So you just snagged a Nexus 6, and you need help navigating Android 5.0 Lollipop or figuring out why your battery life is lousy. Who do you turn to? As of today, you can turn to an app: Google has released Device Assist, a helper tool for Android One, Google Play Edition and Nexus devices. You’ll get tips and tricks, like most digital guidebooks, but it’ll also offer “proactive” fixes for detected issues; it’ll turn down the screen brightness if it’s cranked too high, for instance. If you’re using a Google Play Edition device or Nexus, you also have a fast track to Google’s live support. No, this won’t magically repair cracked screens and other broken hardware, but it could spare you from scouring the web (or making a tech support call) to get solutions to software problems.
