Apple Confirms that it shut down Beeper Miniβs iMessage for Android Beeper Cloud provides iMessage for Android by routing iMessage through a Mac So, Beeper Mini was introduced by βReverse-Engineeringβ the iMessage protocol & since Beeper Mini connects directlyβ¦
Beeper Mini is working again!
Beeper made iMessage possible natively on Android while having end-to-end encryption by "Reverse Engineering" iMessage Protocol.
But Apple then tried to cut off its access, which made Beeper Mini failing to send/receive iMessages on Android
Apple argued that techniques exploit "fake credentials" & it cannot verify these "faux-iMessagesβ sent through Beeper are end-to-end encrypted
Beeper now responds that:
Apple's statement is 1984-esque doublespeak & is completely FUD πππ
Also, If Apple doubts the security & privacy of Beeper Mini, they can share the entire source code with a mutually agreed upon 3rd party security research firm
Additionally, Beeper Mini has REMOVED the Subscription of 2$ per month and the app is now completely FREE to use
However, Phone number registration is NOT working yet & Apple ID is mandatory to log in to Beeper Mini
iMessage will be sent/received through your email address rather than your phone number

First look at Android's Private Space
Source
Google is adding Private Space in Android likely inspired by Samsung's Secure Folder, starting with Android 15
Your smartphone contains a lot of private information, photos, etc & some situations might occur when you have to hand your phone over to someone else
That's where Private Space will come in as it will allow you to hide your apps & your private data in it
Private Space creates a new Android profile of type βandroid.os.usertype.profile.PRIVATEβ, which is tied to the primary user.
A benefit of Private Space being built into Android itself is that the apps will not solely disappear from the launcher
Private Space apps will NOT appear in Android's own permission manager, privacy dashboard & other settings when Private Space is locked
Notifications from apps in Private Space are hidden when itβs locked, further protecting your privacy.
You can set up different pin/passwords than your device's to unlock your private space

Is it possible to run powerful AI features locally on the device?
Google introduced Generative AI wallpaper but it works over the cloud for generating walls rather than on-device.
Since its an Android feature, any OEM can ship it
Qualcomm showcased Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip capable of running Stable Diffusion locally on-device
Pixel 8 Pro with Tensor G3 SoC boasts Video Boost feature which adjusts colors, lighting, stabilization & graininess to the videos but this post-processing also happens over Google data centers
Well, it depends upon how big is the AI model
Video Boost model weighs atleast 50GB & Generative AI Wallpapers is of atleast 160GB in size
So out of a 256GB storage device, OEM's Wallpaper app only will take 70% storage.
And If OEM ships them through an OTA update, then imagine how big will be the system size and future fastboot & OTA images
So are you gonna sacrifice 100s of GB of storage just for some AI features because you want it to run "locally on-device" ?

iPhone 16 Early Prototype Design

These designs are based on early pre-production units of iPhone 16.
Apple engineers refer to the iPhone 16 as DeLorean internally
iPhone 16 will have vertically aligned rear cameras & Apple is considering two different camera bump designs:
βiPhoneβ 12-style design, with two camera lenses located one above the other
βiPhoneβ X-type design, with a singular pill-shaped enclosure
Apple is also experimenting with an all-new capacitive Capture Button, developed internally under the codename Project Nova.
This button will feature a force sensor in addition to "tact-switching" functionality, although it is still unclear what the latter entails.
mmWave antenna has been moved to the left side of the device due to the capacitive Capture button placement
Vanilla iPhone 16 will also have an action button similar to the iPhone 15 pro models along with dynamic island
