If you’ve ever used WhatsApp on your iPad, you already know its limitations. You can’t set it up without a primary device, can’t share live location, and can’t use the broadcast lists feature.  That’s finally changing. WhatsApp’s latest update gives iPad users a long-due promotion. Rather than serving as an extension of your iPhone, it will soon become your main device.  So what exactly has changed? Starting with WhatsApp for iPad version 26.25.74, WhatsApp is rolling out the option to set your iPad as a primary device rather than a companion device (via WABetaInfo). When the update reaches you, you’ll…

The Tesla Model 3 has spent years defining what a premium and functional EV should cost; that’s what we’re used to. However, BYD seems to think that number is way too high.  The Chinese automaker has unveiled a new flagship sedan, the Seal 08, that packs features you don’t normally expect from cars in this segment, blurring the line between affordable and luxury. And after reading its entire spec sheet, it’s actually the price that shakes me the most.  So what exactly does BYD’s new flagship offer? Measuring 5,150 mm long and sitting on a 3,030 mm wheelbase, the BYD…

Samsung’s next generation of foldable smartphones may arrive with significantly higher price tags than their predecessors. According to information shared by Roland Quandt of WinFuture, the upcoming Galaxy Z Fold 8, Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra, Galaxy Z Flip 8, and the Galaxy Watch 9 lineup are all expected to see price increases in Europe when they are unveiled later this month. While flagship smartphones have steadily become more expensive over the past few years, the leaked pricing suggests Samsung could be taking another sizeable step upward, particularly for buyers opting for higher storage variants. Samsung’s premium foldables may be…

Amazon has quietly refreshed one of its most popular tablets, but not in the way many expected. Instead of launching a brand-new Fire tablet after its longest product drought in years, the company has introduced a slightly upgraded version of the existing Fire HD 10 with an extra gigabyte of RAM. The update is modest on paper, yet it arrives at an interesting time. Amazon hasn’t introduced a new Fire tablet since the Fire HD 8 refresh in 2024, while products like the Fire 7 and Fire Max 11 have yet to receive successors. Rather than expanding its lineup, Amazon…

Google is quietly making voice dictation in Chrome feel a lot more natural. With the latest Chrome 151 Beta, the company is introducing a new capability that allows the browser’s speech recognition engine to automatically infer punctuation based on the way people speak, eliminating the need to explicitly say commands like “comma” or “full stop.” The update may sound minor at first glance, but it addresses one of the biggest frustrations with voice typing: speaking naturally often produces text that lacks punctuation unless users consciously dictate every punctuation mark. By teaching Chrome to understand pauses, rhythm, and speech patterns, Google…

Google Maps has steadily evolved from a navigation app into an AI-powered discovery platform, thanks to Gemini integration and features like Ask Maps. Now, the app could be preparing to take the next step by letting users order food directly through conversational AI. According to Android Authority’s Authority Insights, the latest beta version of Google Maps for Android contains references to an unreleased feature that would allow users to ask Maps to place food orders on their behalf. While the functionality isn’t live yet, newly discovered code strings suggest Google is actively developing the feature. Gemini could soon handle your…

A fake version of Maccy, a popular clipboard manager for macOS, is being used to deliver a newly discovered Mac malware strain called PamStealer. Researchers at Jamf say the malware impersonates the real open-source app, but its actual purpose is to steal data and capture a victim’s login password. PamStealer arrives as a disk image containing an AppleScript file that impersonates Maccy. Once the user opens that file, macOS launches it in Script Editor, where the on-screen instructions tell them to press Command-R. To someone expecting a normal app installer, that may look like an odd setup step. In reality,…

When you sprain your ankle in the middle of a run, your body sends a pain signal to your brain, forcing you to stop. Essentially, the ability to sense pain stops you from pushing through the injury and causing further self-harm. Researchers at Delft University of Technology and Wageningen University have applied this exact concept to drones, giving them a digital equivalent of a nervous system that recognizes a faulty part and triggers a pain-like warning signal. What’s even more interesting is that the technology could find use in self-driving cars. So how does the “pain” system actually work? The…

While Valve’s Steam Machine launched at a higher-than-expected price due to the AI-driven chip shortage, it seems that the company is not sitting on its haunches and is still working hard to make the product more enticing to users.  One of the coolest features of the Steam Machine is the user-customizable front faceplate, and Valve has just made it better. The company open-sourced its “Inkterface” project, which allows users to build their own e-ink faceplate for the Steam Machine. Valve uploaded the full BOM list, 3D print files, and instructions for those who want to build their own E-Ink faceplate…
