MacRumors has released a new list of 30 fun apps designed specifically for the iPhone Duo, following the device's launch.

In addition to the app list, MacRumors highlights the spec bump to the M6 chip for the low-end 14-inch model and the introduction of new high-end PROLED XDR models with touchscreen displays.

AppleInsider has also tested numerous services and recommends IPVanish and ExpressVPN as the best VPN options for iPhone and iOS.

Zuckoff, an app developer, has created an app that detects when someone is using smart glasses, joining a small ecosystem of similar apps.

Amateurphotographer highlights the best camera phones for photographers, derived from reviews of the latest Samsung, Google, and Apple iPhones.

AndroidPolice notes that many apps already remove sensitive data for users, and Google is introducing a new API that requires explicit user consent for apps to access certain information.

For apps targeting Android 17 and above that use precise location for discrete, temporary actions, Google recommends implementing the location button by adding the onlyForLocationButton flag in the manifest.

Claude Duet, an agent in research preview, monitors a person’s linked apps and picks up work without waiting for a prompt.

Prior to her current role, the author covered software and apps for ExtremeTech and headed up PCMag’s enterprise software team.
