Karlis Dambrans/Shutterstock Google’s Pixel smartphones come with a dedicated troubleshooting app, launching in 2023. But it’s not a separate app that you need to install. Rather, Google has integrated its tech support features directly into your Google Pixel settings. If you’re still using an older, long-term Pixel device, like a Google Pixel 5 or earlier, you won’t have access to this set of tools. It is only available on Google Pixel 6 and later, and some features are only accessible if Android 14 or later is installed. THE Device health…

On the back of the Motorola Razr Ultra is a dual-camera system, consisting of a 50-megapixel main camera and a 50-megapixel ultra-wide camera. At this price, it would be nice to have a telephoto lens, but perhaps that’s a limitation of the flip phone form factor. Frankly, I’d rather have a telephoto lens than a big cover screen – or frankly any cover screen. But that’s a personal preference. The main change on the main camera is the new LOFIC sensor (Lateral Overflow Integration Capacitor, if you want the full name), which Motorola claims offers up to 6x greater dynamic…
Apple’s annual WWDC developer conference is coming to a close, but there’s still a lot to look forward to in the second half of the year.

As Woozad reported, Federighi clarified that the Siri upgrade for iOS 27 won’t bother you like other AI in an interview with the podcast Mainly humanwith Apple marketing chief Greg Joswiak. “Quite the contrary, because as you may know, if you use a lot of existing chatbots, they focus to a large extent on engagement.

U.S. Senators Chuck Grassley and Amy Klobuchar this week reintroduced the American Innovation and Choice Online Act (AICOA) that targets big tech companies like Apple, and Apple is not happy to see it again. The bipartisan bill is reminiscent of the European Union’s Digital Markets Act, prohibiting large platforms from prioritizing their own products or services, limiting competitors’ access to key platform features, locking users into default settings, and more. This is a reworked version of the same bill that did not come to a vote in 2022. In a statement to WoozadApple said AICOA would undermine protections for children’s…
Raditya/Getty Images Apple has been trying to make the Apple Watch work with Android for about three years, according to the company’s own remarks in early 2024.

As of 2026, the Apple Watch continues to be one of the best smartwatches available to buyers, with Apple refining the experience every year. But it doesn’t get any easier to…
