December is here, and it won't be long now before we're looking at 2024 in the rear-view mirror and getting ready for all the new phones coming our way in the new year. Before it does, though, we've got one last month to get through, and Google is kicking it off with its latest updates to the Android Security Bulletin and Google Play Services.
Let's start off with Play Services, where Google shares that its new version 24.47 release has a few improvements to bring to Wallet. In addition to expanding access to additional nations, using Wallet on a Wear OS smartwatch will now support more types of passes, including corporate badges, hotel room keys, and campus IDs. We also learn about a few developer-focused tweaks, but this Wallet stuff is really the only user-facing changes here worth noting.
