For years, accessing Google Photos on a TV has been… unnecessarily complicated. You either had to cast from your phone, rely on screensavers, or just give up entirely. But that’s finally changing. Having previously teased, Google has announced on the official support channel that Google Photos is now officially making its way to Samsung TVs. It’s bringing native access to your photo library right on the big screen, without any workarounds needed. How does Google Photos work on Samsung TVs? This isn’t just a basic gallery app, but a deeper integration. The rollout starts with a feature called “Memories,” which…

Kia is finally bringing one of its most important EVs to the US, and it’s not trying to go big, flashy, or expensive. Instead, it’s going small… and smart. The Kia EV3, a compact electric SUV, has made its North American debut at the New York International Auto Show and is expected to go on sale in late 2026 as a 2027 model. Positioned as the most accessible EV in Kia’s lineup, it sits below the EV6 and EV9, focusing on practicality, usability, and affordability rather than outright performance. What makes the EV3 stand out? For starters, the range is…

WhatsApp is warning users about something far more serious than a scam: a fake version of the app that was actually spyware. According to recent coverage by Italian newspaper La Repubblica and news agency ANSA, hundreds of users were tricked into downloading a malicious clone of WhatsApp, which was secretly designed to spy on them. This wasn’t a random attack either. In a conversation with TechCrunch, Meta says the campaign was highly targeted, with victims lured into installing the fake app through deceptive methods. Once installed, the spyware could potentially access sensitive data and monitor activity. A convincing fake, and…

AI bias is usually talked about in terms of algorithms: skewed datasets, flawed outputs, and stereotypes baked into models. But new research suggests there’s another, more subtle problem about who gets to use AI in the first place. According to a recent report by Lean In, women are less likely than men to use AI tools at work, and even when they do, they’re less likely to get recognition or support for it. The numbers paint a clear picture. Men are more likely to use AI regularly (33% vs 27%), more likely to have ever used it at work, and…

Just weeks after launch, Apple has quietly done something it rarely does this quickly: it’s cut the price of its brand-new Studio Display XDR. And not by a token amount either. We’re looking at a solid $400 drop, depending on how you configure it. It was done subtly on the website that many users probably wouldn’t notice unless they were already eyeing the display. Classic Apple, but also… surprisingly self-aware. This sits much better with the wallet gods (only for some) At launch, the Studio Display XDR raised a few eyebrows for its pricing structure. Whether you picked the VESA…

For years, location permissions have been a bit of a mess on Android. You open an app, it asks for your location, and you’re suddenly making a decision: While using the app? Always? Precise? Approximate? Most of us just tap something and move on, half-aware that we might be sharing more than we need to. With Android 17, that finally changes. It shifts the decision to the exact moment you actually need it. This actually changes everything. The new location button keeps things simple The new feature is called the location button. Instead of handing over your location to an app…

According to Ms. Zobia Amin, Clinical Psychologist at RAK Hospital, feelings of stress, anxiety or emotional unease are natural responses when individuals are exposed to unsettling situations. “Feeling anxious, stressed or emotionally unsettled is the body’s way…

Heat has been the ceiling that has stopped us from building electronic devices that survive in harsh conditions. Not only do electronic devices begin to thermally throttle at high temperatures, but if they are pushed beyond 200 degrees, they stop working entirely. But that might change, as a team at the University of Southern California may have broken through the thermal ceiling. In a study published in Science, researchers developed a new memory chip that kept working reliably at 700 degrees Celsius. For reference, that’s hotter than molten lava. The device showed no signs of giving up. Seven hundred degrees…
