Google says its Files app can now actually clean your phone's screen

Google's Files app is pretty good for getting rid of those unnecessary files that pile up on your phone over time.

Now, however, Google says the app goes one step further and cleans the actual surface of your screen.

How's that possible, you ask? Well, Google says it's using "geometric dirt models" and "haptic micromovement generator" to remove dirt from the screen. And after the screen has been cleaned, Google once again uses haptic technology to form a "long-lasting" dirt shield around the phone. Remember how Superman can just burrow through matter without touching it when moving at super-fast speeds? This is similar. I think.

Finally, once your screen has been thoroughly cleaned, the Files app will give it a fresh pineapple scent, which should remind even the sleepiest of you, dear readers, exactly what date it is today.
