It's better than leaving a regular voicemail because it's video " you can relay a message quickly or show something off on camera. For instance, if your dog or your human child is doing something cute, or if you want to get a second opinion on an outfit, you might want to show someone. If they don't answer your FaceTime call, you can record a video to send them to watch later. Here's how FaceTime voicemail works. It makes FaceTime " which Apple introduced in 2010 as a key feature of the iPhone 4 (the first with a front-facing camera) " even more useful. FaceTime, which made video calls just as easy as regular phone calls, is an incredibly popular feature, allowing…...

54+ min ago (235+ words) It seems that with every update, Apple quietly adds hundreds of features and settings that are very impactful but easy to miss. These are not the big headliner features, but smaller ones that, once you know about them, make your day-to-day life so much easier. Here are 15 features and settings that every iPhone owner should know about, but probably doesn't. Be sure to check out our video below to see all of these (and more) in action: Just like that, the issue is fixed! By default, the physical volume buttons control both media and ringer volume. If you mostly watch videos or listen to podcasts, this can be frustrating. This is one of the more annoying default settings. Here is how to change it so the volume buttons only change the media volume and not the ringer volume. Have you…...

1+ hour ago (312+ words) Apple's first foldable iPhone may turn out to be smaller on the outside than many people imagine. According to a new report from The Information, the outer display on the book-style device will measure just 5.3 inches " that's smaller than the 5.4-inch screen on the "iPhone" mini, a line Apple discontinued in 2022 due to poor sales. Given that consumers passed on the compact screen that featured on the iPhone 12 mini and "iPhone" 13 mini, you have to wonder how open they would be to using an even smaller one on a premium foldable device. That's assuming the sizes are accurate, of course. The report's dimensions actually differ slightly from earlier predictions by analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, who said the foldable "iPhone" would feature a 7.8-inch inner display and 5.5-inch outer display. The Information's sources suggest marginally smaller screens at 7.7 inches and 5.3 inches, although…...

1+ hour, 4+ min ago (441+ words) Apple released the first iOS 26.3 beta this week for iPhone users. The update focues a lot on interoperability between iPhone and Android devices, as well as support for third-party smartwatches. Here are all of the new iOS 26.3 features so far. The big change in iOS 26.3 is a new "Transfer to Android" system, which makes it easier for an iPhone user to switch to an Android device. This new system was developed as part of a joint collaboration between Apple and Google. The latest Android beta adds a similar system for switching from Android to iPhone. The goal is to improve interoperability between the two platforms. The system also transfers the user's phone number to the new device. Apple notes, however, that sensitive information like Health data, Bluetooth devices, locked notes, and more is not transferred to the Android device as…...

1+ hour, 34+ min ago (375+ words) The iPhone Air appears to have been one of the least successful iPhones ever, but it seems that hasn't discouraged Apple from trying again in 2027 with an iPhone Air 2. The latest report suggests that the company may fix the two biggest problems with the device, and if accurate, I would expect the 2nd-gen model to be significantly more popular " Almost immediately after launch, it was noted that the iPhone Air remained available for immediate delivery long after the iPhone 17 Pro was backordered. A series of follow-up reports all seemed to confirm low demand for the model. One said that Apple's manufacturing orders had been slashed to'almost end of production levels, while a subsequent one said that production of the device'had ceased altogether. With Samsung seemingly faring no better with its Galaxy S25 Edge, other brands were said to have cancelled their…...

1+ hour, 40+ min ago (377+ words) Apple has reportedly begun preliminary talks with Indian chipmakers to assemble and package iPhone components, according to a report by the Economic Times on Wednesday, citing sources familiar with the discussions. This is the first time Apple is considering assembling and packaging some chips in India, the report said. It is not yet clear which chips will be packaged at the Sanand facility in Gujarat, but they are likely to be display-related chips. As per the report, Tim Cook-led Apple held discussions with Murugappa Group-owned CG Semi, which is building an outsourced semiconductor assembly and test (OSAT) facility in Sanand. Apple has been looking to shift the manufacturing of all iPhones sold in the US to India by the end of 2026. It is now speeding up those plans with the aim to offset potentially higher tariffs in China, its main…...

1+ hour, 52+ min ago (273+ words) Apple's upcoming foldable iPhone, tentatively dubbed the iPhone Fold, is already one of the most anticipated smartphones of 2026. Yet, new CAD renders - from a less-than-stellar source - depict a device that is weirdly squat in terms of its dimensions. Now, a German website, iphone-ticker, has published CAD renders of the iPhone Fold, showing a device that bears the dimensions of 83.8mm x 120.6mm x 9.6mm. When fully unfolded, the diagonal length of the screen spans 139.4mm. Also, a 1.8mm hinge extends out from the side of the device when it is folded. If you place two iPhones side-by-side, they make up a rough square. However, the iPhone Fold unfurls to form a rectangle, giving off distinctly squat vibes with its shorter and wider frame. Moreover, when fully unfurled, you are presented with a 7.76-inch screen, as per the CAD renders, which is a tad less than…...

3+ hour, 12+ min ago (358+ words) The Xiaomi 17 Ultra has appeared on a pair of key US certification bodies, indicating that it will indeed be receiving a wider release. That means it's official: the Xiaomi 17 Ultra is going global. While that's not exactly a revelatory piece of news " previous flagship smartphones from the brand have tended to get a wide release "it's never wise to assume anything in the smartphone business. Xiaomi's next Ultra phone has appeared (via TheTechOutlook) on both the FCC and IMEI databases under the code number 2512BPNDAG. The "G' at the end confirms that this is indeed an international model we're talking about. That much is evident from the identity of the governing bodies themselves. The FCC is the Federal Communications Commission, which is the US government agency responsible for regulating telecommunications across the country. While this is an American body, the appearance…...

3+ hour, 54+ min ago (351+ words) The iPhone 17e is rumoured to be making one key change that could see it catching up with the Pixel 10 series. According to a new report on The Information, Apple is planning to add MagSafe wireless charging to its follow-up to the iPhone 16e. The iPhone 17e has been predicted to launch in early 2026 with Qi2 support reinstated. All of which is a rather ironic turn of events when you consider the brief history of Qi2 support in smartphones. For years now Android smartphone in general have received stick " especially from Apple fans " for not supporting Qi2 wireless charging. This lay in stark contrast to the iPhone series, which has supported the convenient magnetic attachment system (called MagSafe in Apple's terminology) since the iPhone 12 appeared in 2020. That all flipped on its head this year, albeit to a limited degree. Back in February Apple launched the mid-range…...
