Beyond that, the feature focuses on providing an annual overview of activity on Wikipedia as a whole, but in a pretty graphical format, not dissimilar to Spotify's Wrapped. A list of the most-read English language articles is topped by Charlie Kirk and "deaths in 2025," proving that humans are incurably morbid. Wikipedia also says that editors made over 66 million changes across the site this year.
The problem: not everyone uses the same phone operating system. In my house, I have an iPhone and my wife has an Android. This means when I inevitably leave my phone in a hotel couch, she can't really help me find it. Sure, she could call my phone number, but I usually have my ringer off and Do Not Disturb enabled. (I'm annoying like that.)
This photo was taken in August, in the Sing'isi village in Arusha, northern Tanzania, where my colleagues and I were conducting a field visit to farmers. I was demonstrating how to use a mobile app - named KilimoAI - to examine crop leaves. The app, which we've developed in-house, works by analysing a photograph of the plant to detect possible disease symptoms.
OpenAI's Sora app allows users to create personalized, AI-generated videos from the convenience of their phones on a social-media-like interface. However, at launch, the app was only available on iOS and required pesky invite codes --but not anymore. On Tuesday, OpenAI announced that the Sora app is also now available for Android devices in the Google Play Store. As an added bonus, a limited-time promotion that allows users to try the Sora app without an invite code is being extended to Android.

"This brand has never had top-of-funnel paid media launched at scale," Lynch said on the company's most recent earnings call. "It's hard to believe, but all the marketing has always been word of mouth, earned media and bottom-funnel ... promo activations, and so we leaned in on making some of these investments and so we're ecstatic with the results."
The outdoor hiking app AllTrails recently released a new feature called Outdoor Lens, which uses artificial intelligence to identify and spot a hiker's surroundings. The feature, which rolled out last month, boasts a database of more than 50,000 plants and insects. The lens can even identify different fungi in a variety of locations. Outdoor Lens is exclusive to AllTrails' paid-membership tier, called Peak, which costs $79.99 per year.
Sony is finally catching up to something Nintendo and Microsoft have had for years. The new PlayStation Family app mainly serves as a mobile extension of on-console parental controls. However, parents also get a few extra perks in the mobile version. The app includes a "thoughtfully guided" onboarding process. (I imagine many people will prefer their phone or tablet over the console for that.) Once things are set up, parents can do everything they already could on the console.
When Business Insider downloaded and ran the robotaxi app, we were first taken to the robotaxi's terms of service, which said that rides are "being conducted autonomously" if a safety driver is not in the driver's seat. The app then prompted users to tap a button to sign up for the waitlist by creating a Tesla account. The app's design is simple.
The feature aims to consolidate content recommendations that already happen over texts, social media, and third-party messaging services into a single location where Spotify users can more easily track their shared content. Any audio content shared with or by the user will be stored in the Messages inbox that's accessed under the profile picture in the top-left corner of the app, making it easier to find again in the future.
The mobile app's personalized feed will show bite-sized sports videos in a standalone "verts" tab as well as within a carousel on the homepage. There's a new "SC For You" feature launching in beta, too, which uses the AI-generated voices of SportsCenter anchors to deliver a daily version of the show that's tailored to your favorite teams, leagues, and sports. This feature will be available on the ESPN mobile app, along with ESPN.com and some smart TVs.

This past year alone, I launched a mobile app on Google Play, expanded into 15 languages, got to know the leaders of the on-ramp and off-ramp markets, and now work with a network of 42 trusted partners.
"Once you download the free app, you can take a photo of any product with the in-app camera. The AI-powered image recognition in the app will then read the label and search for information online and in our database."
The bug was caused by a beta version of the Android System WebView component. This has been fixed in the latest version released by Google on the Play Store, v139.0.7258.51 from July 23.
