On iOS 26 with a T-Satellite plan? These six iPhone apps work via satellite

9to5mac.com Ben Lovejoy 2025-09-30 01:56:24

When T-Mobile launched its T-Satellite service back in July, iPhone users were limited to text messaging via satellite – but the company promised that support for selected additional apps would follow. With the launch of iOS 26, the company has started to make good on that promise, with support for six apps so far. Notably, you don’t need to choose T-Mobile as your carrier in order to subscribe to the service … T-Satellite from T-Mobile We’d known since 2022 that T-Mobile would be SpaceX’s fi

With Lumo, Proton thinks it can carve a place at the AI table

Proton released Lumo — its privacy-focused chatbot built on open-source models — in mid-July, and, following an update in August that addressed some early issues, I find myself using it more often than ChatGPT or Claude. In a world where internet companies have done so much damage to our society, I'm trying to find more ethical tools. But when the competition offers flashier features in exchange for the low price of user data, does Proton seriously think it can compete? If Eamonn Maguire, Proto

Apple released its thinnest phone yet last week, the iPhone Air, and revealed the new iPhone Air MagSafe Battery alongside it. The existence of a specially-made battery pack wasn’t a big surprise to me, because there had been rumors of the iPhone Air for months leading up to the event. Everyone was prepared for the thinnest iPhone ever to make some battery life sacrifices to achieve its svelte design.

4 Things You Should Never Cook in a Nonstick Pan, According to an Expert

Nonstick cookware has its place in the kitchen, but its limitations should keep it from being your everyday pan.

Some foods can damage the surface of your nonstick skillet, leading to a shorter lifespan or the release of nonstick materials into your food.
