[ad_1] Has the Twitter timeline been extra jumpy on your iPhone or iPad? Yesterday Twitter acknowledged the “frustrating” issue, and now an update to address it is rolling out via the App Store.

Test shows dark mode really can save battery life on OLED iPhones
[ad_1] At the end of the test the “light mode” iPhone XS was dead, while the one running dark mode still had 30 percent battery life.

Google to fix ‘bug’ that uploads free full-quality iPhone pics to Photos
[ad_1] You can replicate this behavior with Samsung devices, but HEIC (aka HEIF) isn’t the default format and thus isn’t used nearly as often.
