What’s happened? Tired of dragging sliders and trying different settings in the Google Photos app to make your picture look better? A new feature can help you achieve the desired look by just describing the changes you want to make.
Why is this important? While most users are aware of the changes they’d like to make, they might not know how to implement them. For new Google Photos users or those unfamiliar with concepts like exposure or contrast, the “Help me edit” feature allows you to make even the most complex edits in seconds.
Why should I care? Suppose you’re about to post on Instagram and realize the picture could use some improvement in composition and lighting. In that case, you can simply type “straighten the picture and improve the lighting,” and wait a couple of seconds for the magic to unfold.
OK, what’s next? The “Help me edit” feature in Google Photos makes editing a picture as simple as having a conversation with an AI assistant, saving time on manual edits and unlocking more creative possibilities. While AI integration across its Photos app remains the company’s priority, it has also updated the collage creation interface with more intuitive and useful controls.
Are you tired of paying for streaming services you never watch just to get a phone plan feature you actually want? T-Mobile has good news for you! The carrier is rolling out new plans, called T-Mix, in early November to replace its old Experience lineup with a build-your-own perks system called Picks.
The benefits you choose vary from streaming and gaming to food delivery, AI, satellite service, and phone discounts. But if you are satisfied with your existing plan, you can keep it.
Merely days after the iPhone Duo hit the shelves, images of broken screens on the phone started popping up across social media. Until now, it’s been unclear what’s causing the line of defective pixels that appears vertically along the crease, as well as horizontally, on the phone’s inner display.
Apple has finally acknowledged the issue, which has shown up on iPhone Duo units owned by customers as well as demo units in stores. In a statement shared with Bloomberg, Apple says that not all iPhone Duo units are affected and that those that are tend to show the display fault early on. The company added that users who experience problems with their iPhone Duo display should contact AppleCare for a replacement.
Not long ago, Apple treated independent repair like an act of outright hostility. The Cupertino giant locked down parts with serial-number pairing, while repair tools remained firmly out of reach of anyone outside its authorized repair network. More importantly, the company waged a legal and lobbying battle against right-to-repair legislation.
I've covered enough of these fights over the years to know what a shift looks like. That's why what happened in October 2026 genuinely caught me off guard. The day the iPhone Duo went on sale, what may be the most mechanically complex iPhone to date, Apple pulled off a surprising about-face. It published teardown-style repair manuals for a handful of major components.
