Screenshot of the Ikea AI Assistant | Ikea Trips to Ikea can easily be an overwhelming exercise if you go in without a plan. Ikea’s AI assistant on the GPT Store was created to help — it will tell you all about its products and visualize them in a room. Francesco Marzoni‚ chief data and analytics officer at Ingka Group‚ the largest Ikea franchise holder‚ said in a press release the AI assistant is part of a series of experiments the company is doing “so that we can take part in the AI evolution as we shape our company strategy.” I figured an Ikea AI Assistant should be a good way to make the experience less exhausting; this is part of Ikea’s pitch to potential users. So I decided to give it a try. However‚ I found that the Ikea GPT was not a good partner in interior design. T... Continue reading…

Illustration: The Verge WhatsApp‚ like many other major tech platforms‚ will have to make some significant changes to comply with the European Union’s Digital Markets Act (DMA). One of those changes is interoperability with other messaging platforms‚ a move WhatsApp engineering director Dick Brouwer explains in an interview with Wired. The shift toward interoperability will first include text messages‚ images‚ voice messages‚ videos‚ and files sent from one person to another. In theory‚ this would allow users to chat with people on WhatsApp through third-party apps‚ like iMessage‚ Telegram‚ Google Messages‚ and Signal‚ and vice versa. However‚ it all depends on whether other companies get on board‚ as there are still concerns about how the Meta-owned app will... Continue reading…

Photo by Vjeran Pavic / The Verge The first visionOS developer beta since the launch of the Apple Vision Pro is here‚ bringing with it a fix that lets users of the headset get closer to objects in a 3D space. In visionOS‚ when you get close enough to an object or an app window‚ it starts to fade to nothing as you pass through it. But one of The Verge’s staffers said the point where this fade happens when playing something like STAK!‚ a game that lets you stack 3D blocks‚ was frustratingly far away. Apple’s release notes for the visionOS beta 1.1 update say that users will “be able to reposition volumetric scenes much closer than before‚ which will enable easier direct interaction” with the objects in them. Besides this fix‚ Apple has also reportedly enabled... Continue reading…

macOS 14.4 beta 2 is now available to developers as Apple aims at a March release of this new operating system update. While macOS 14.3 was already a mild update‚ 14.4 doesn't look much more than that. That said‚ Apple is pretty much adding small tweaks across the system‚ which is most of the features BGR could find. For example‚ with macOS 14.2‚ Apple added support for multiple timers on macOS Sonoma. With this new update‚ the company has expanded this option with all ringtones currently available. Previously‚ only the classic tones were available. For Apple Music and Podcasts apps‚ Apple switched the Listen Now tab to Home. Although there aren't other changes‚ it's interesting that Cupertino decided to make this move. In addition‚ Apple is adding 108 new emojis for macOS 14.4 users in beta 2. Most of the figures are skin tone modifiers and gender variants. Still‚ the new emojis include a lime‚ shaking heads‚ a phoenix‚ and four new gender-neutral family emojis intended to be represented via silhouettes. Apple is also aware of a bug that the Weather app might crash on launch on Intel Macs. The company is working on a fix‚ which means it'll likely be fixed by the time Cupertino releases macOS 14.4 to all users. With macOS 14.3‚ Apple added the following features: Collaborate on playlists in Apple Music allows you to invite friends to join your playlist and everyone can add‚ reorder‚ and remove songs. Emoji reactions can be added to any track in a collaborative playlist in Apple Music. Apple Care &; Warranty in Settings shows your coverage for all devices signed in with your Apple ID. Besides macOS 14.4 beta 2‚ Apple is also seeding the second test version of iOS 17.4‚ iPadOS 17.4‚ watchOS 10.4‚ and tvOS 17.4. BGR will let you know once we learn more about this new testing cycle.

Apple has just released tvOS 17.4 beta 2 to Apple TV users. At this moment‚ it's unclear what changes the company is adding to this operating system update. However‚ with beta 1‚ the company added references to an unreleased homeOS software. Most likely‚ this software would be used for a HomePod with a screen. Bloomberg and other outlets have reported on a HomePod with iPad integration‚ like an Amazon Echo Show product. Apple is also apparently working on a HomePod with a circular display. That said‚ instead of the current wave animations that we have on the HomePod‚ we could see music and weather data‚ for example. Since tvOS 17.4 beta added a SharePlay feature for the HomePod‚ which would let people scan a QR Code to the Apple Music app on the TV so others could start a SharePlay session to add new songs to the list‚ this could hint at an upcoming feature for this homeOS system. With tvOS 17.3‚ Apple readded the Wishlists and Favorites section‚ which can still be found in the iTunes Movies and iTunes TV Shows apps. Interestingly‚ Apple had killed these apps with tvOS 17.2 as it favored the revamped TV app but then decided to re-enable these applications. With that‚ tvOS 17.3 users can finally rediscover the Wishlists and Favorites tabs of these apps‚ as they haven’t been added to the new TV app. In addition‚ Apple Music users can also see Apple Music Collaborative Playlists on the Music app. While they can’t start a collaborative playlist from the Apple TV‚ they can see the collaborators of a list and who added each song. Alongside tvOS 17.4 beta 2‚ Apple is also seeding the second testing version of iOS 17.4‚ iPadOS 17.4‚ watchOS 10.4‚ and macOS 14.4. BGR will let you know if we learn anything new about this or any other upcoming operating system update.

With watchOS 10.4 expected to launch in early March‚ Apple continues its testing cycle with beta 2. While watchOS 10.3 was a minor update‚ this one has some interesting new features that users should be looking forward to trying. First of them is the addition of over 100 new emojis. Although the new figures include a lime‚ shaking shaking heads‚ a phoenix‚ and four new gender-neutral family emojis intended to be represented via silhouettes‚ skin tone modifiers and gender variants represent the majority of new emojis. They can be used in iMessage and other messaging apps with your Apple Watch. Besides that‚ watchOS 10.4 beta 2 adds a new tweak for Apple Vision Pro users. Since both devices rely on double-tap gestures‚ you can now turn on the Ignore Double Tap setting when using Apple's spatial computer. Here's how Apple describes this feature: "When this is on‚ the double tap gesture will be temporarily ignored while using Vision Pro." watchOS 10.1 beta Double Tap gesture Image source: Apple Inc. For those unaware‚ pinching your fingers is the way you control Apple Vision Pro‚ but if you double tap your fingers‚ this is also how you can control Apple Watch Series 9 and Apple Watch Ultra 2. Thankfully‚ the owners of both newer Apple Watches and Vision Pro won't have this issue for longer. watchOS 10.4 beta 2 also brings improvements to Siri‚ as you can now wake the personal assistant with only its name by saying "Siri" instead of "Hey Siri." In addition‚ Siri can read incoming messages in multiple languages‚ including Spanish‚ Portuguese‚ French‚ German‚ and more. Lastly‚ there is an updated Timer UI if you care about those tiny details. Alongside watchOS 10.4 beta 2‚ Apple is also seeding the second testing version of iOS 17.4‚ iPadOS 17.4‚ macOS 14.4‚ and tvOS 17.4. BGR will let you know if we find anything different on this build.
