9to5mac.com Ryan Christoffel 2025-07-23 02:27:22

iOS 26 is a huge update for CarPlay users, with more new features than we’ve seen in years. One addition that’s especially noteworthy is the introduction of widgets to CarPlay for the first time. Widgets bring glanceable info to CarPlay Widgets are a key feature across nearly all of Apple’s software platforms. They’re a big part of the iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch. This year Vision Pro is even adding spatial widgets in visionOS 26. But CarPlay has had the longest wait for widgets, and t

This iPhone feature is the only reason I haven’t switched back to a Pixel phone

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-09-09 15:30:53

Ryan Haines / Android Authority I often find myself shuffling between phones — sometimes as frequently as switching handsets every week. And I make sure to replicate my home screen layout on each Android phone so that I don’t feel unfamiliar when switching and my muscle memory doesn’t act up either. But every single one of those Android phones teases my inner urge to have everything look visually organized. When you have a bunch of widgets — all different shapes and sizes — plastered across mu

The coolest visionOS 26 feature is also a hint at Apple’s next home product

9to5mac.com Marcus Mendes 2025-09-13 19:59:00

This week, Apple unveiled visionOS 26, and one of its standout features is spatial widgets: customizable, three-dimensional elements that users can pin to their surroundings and glance at while wearing an Apple Vision Pro. And while they’re technically impressive and undeniably cool-looking (especially that wall-embedded ones), they might also be Apple’s first hint at what we could expect from a long-rumored smart home product.

One UI 8 beta 2 fixes Samsung’s supersized widgets

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-09-16 07:56:25

Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung’s first One UI 8 beta allowed larger widgets (4×4) on the home screen, but the feature had inconsistent functionality. The second beta version resolves these issues, making resizing to the full widget size reliable and smooth. One UI 8 may not feel like a big update over One UI 7, but it is a big update for your home screen widgets, quite literally. Samsung lets users adjust the size of their home screen widgets to a maximum of three rows high, but

Liquid Glass design The most obvious change is essentially a new theme that mirrors Apple’s new Liquid Glass design language used on iPhone.

My Virtual Avatar No Longer Looks Terrible in the Apple Vision Pro

wired.com Julian Chokkattu 2025-09-16 07:07:16

Remember Apple’s Vision Pro? That's the $3,499 mixed reality headset the company launched early in 2024 that failed to garner much public interest. Apple has steamed ahead with updates for the platform over the past year, and soon there will be a new version upgrade: visionOS 26. (Apple announced at WWDC it was changing the way it named its operating systems to match the following year.) I got a chance to try out a few of the new capabilities, but two stuck out to me more than the others. First
