Overcast can create clips from any public podcast

[ad_1] The sharing pages also display badges for listening in specific podcast apps for listeners who want to listen to the rest of the episode, including Overcast itself (strictly optional) and Apple Podcasts. This won’t help much if you’re trying to capture the entirety of a segment, or if there’s tweaks you’d like to make […]

Apple poached Intel’s 5G leader weeks ahead of Qualcomm truce

[ad_1] Neither Apple nor Intel has commented on the report. It’s also not clear exactly what Thyagarajan is doing in his new role (he describes it solely as “Architecture” in his LinkedIn bio), although wireless chipset design is the most likely explanation given his background. Apple hasn’t been shy about its intentions to make its […]

Windows preview brings Android notifications to your PC

[ad_1] The feature is gradually rolling out to Windows Insiders using at least the 1803 (RS4) build. You’ll also need a phone running Android 7.0 Nougat or newer and a minimum of 1GB of RAM. You can’t respond to notifications (at least not yet), but this could be particularly vital for Snapchat and other apps […]

This gaming phone has a built-in cooling fan and can record 8K video

[ad_1] Much like its predecessors and some direct competitors, the Red Magic 3 comes with customizable capacitive shoulder triggers and an RGB LED strip on the back to keep competitive gamers happy. As a bonus, the fingerprint reader above the RGB strip can also be mapped as a button for gaming. The phone has also […]

AT&T says it’s the first US network to reach 2Gbps speeds on 5G

[ad_1] If you could sustain that performance, you’d download a two-hour “HD” movie in the space of ten seconds, AT&T claimed. However, the operative term is “if.” As we witnessed first-hand with our tests on Verizon’s network (disclaimer: that’s our parent company), reaching those speeds is currently unlikely with any provider. You need a millimeter […]

Apple accused of clamping down on apps competing with Screen Time

[ad_1] Some of those apps had more advanced features, such as support for managing Android devices and blocking websites in browsers besides Safari. The Times also understood that developers received only brief notes demanding changes, with no reasoning or detail to help them modify their apps or explain why their apps were at risk of […]

Intel is trying to sell its smartphone-modem business

[ad_1] Now, Intel is pivoting and looking to offload its smartphone-modem business as a whole, according to WSJ. Apple is still a possible buyer, though a few other companies have expressed interest and Intel is working with Goldman Sachs to facilitate negotiations. The deal will likely be worth a few billion dollars, though it’s all […]

Google bans developer with half a billion app downloads from Play Store

[ad_1] While DO Global isn’t the first app developer to get banned from Google’s marketplace, it is one of the biggest. In addition to having its apps removed from the platform, DO Global also appears to have been given the boot from Google’s AdMob network. That would mean the company is no longer allowed to […]

AT&T’s fake 5GE icon is available in the Android Open Source Project

[ad_1] AT&T introduced the 5GE (5G Evolution) in January on Samsung’s Galaxy S8 Active and LG’s V30. But as true 5G networks are still being tested, 5GE really indicates 4G LTE-Advanced — a mix of 4G LTE plus technologies like 4×4 MIMO antennas, 256 QAM and carrier aggregation. AT&T’s competitors were quick to mock and […]

iFixit pulls its Galaxy Fold teardown at Samsung’s request

[ad_1] The Galaxy Fold won’t make its planned launch date as Samsung looks into problems experienced by several reviewers with test units. In the meantime, the folks at iFixit did what they do best and pulled one apart, but on Thursday explained their choice to “withdraw” the teardown. While iFixit usually gets a device specifically […]
