It took long enough, but Meta has finally admitted what Threads users have been saying from day one: the platform needs its own direct messaging system. Not something tied to Instagram, not a redirect, just DMs, right where the conversations are happening. And now, that’s exactly what they’re finally getting. Starting this week (via The Verge), Threads is testing a native DM inbox in three countries: Hong Kong, Thailand, and Argentina. The rollout is limited for now, but according to Mark Zuck

Last Monday, towards the end of the WWDC25 keynote, Craig Federighi said that Apple had “expanded” its vision for Swift Assist, and it would now allow developers to bring their Large Language Model of choice directly to Xcode. Now, we know more about how this is going to work. What is Swift Assist? This was a feature that Apple announced during last year’s WWDC, but hadn’t released until now, on Xcode 26 beta.

The Apple Watch is a stellar wearable, and one that’s enticing enough to prevent many from switching to Android. But with its upcoming foldable, Vivo claims to, somehow, support the Apple Watch. In a teaser on Weibo, Vivo claims that its coming X Fold 5 will support the Apple Watch, being the first Android phone to do so.

Apple is continuing its marketing onslaught for the F1 movie, which arrives in US cinemas on June 27. Apple has released a new trailer in the TV app for the film, but this one has a twist.

Siri got lots of airtime at last year's WWDC – but not this year There’s no denying that Apple made a major mis-step when it showed off impressive new Siri features during last year’s WWDC, before doubling-down in an iPhone 16 ad. The company was forced to delete the ad and walk back the timing. That led even the most upbeat of Apple commenters to criticize the company for showing off “vaporware,” implying that the demos had been faked.
