The Duo represents the first time the iPhone has gone through a major form factor shift, and in.

Spotify is busting free of CarPlay with the launch of its first native.

Spotify announced Wednesday the launch of its next-generation, fully native in-car app, built directly on Google's Android Automotive operating system. The standalone app, which is launching today in select Audi models, runs directly on the vehicle's infotainment hardware - eliminating the need for phone tethering, Bluetooth connections, or aux cables. It's the clearest sign yet that Spotify is ready to move beyond Apple CarPlay and Android, popular phone projection systems.

I can’t get enough of the iPhone Duo’s matte inner display

Easy on the eyes. The iPhone Duo has all the messiness of a first-gen product. And while I'm not sure I love all of the decisions Apple made around its design, it got one thing right: the matte finish on the inner screen. I've been using it for the past week to watch movies on a plane, peruse my photo gallery, and catch up on a little reading, and I'm.

YouTube might be testing hiding the dislike button

YouTube appears to be testing hiding the dislike button on videos, as reported by 9to5Google. At least two users on X have recently shared screenshots of the dislike button now being placed in the three-dots submenu, and a user on Reddit also shared an image of the dislike button being absent for them. Right now, for me, the dislike button sits right next to the like button under a video.
