The most recent presentation of Apple’s WWDC event has come and gone, during which Apple introduced the developer beta of the newly renamed iOS 26 – which is accessible to everyone, non-developers included, for free. If you want to try out an early version of the new OS, we’ve got directions on how to install […]
For several months, my Slack avatar was a screenshot of my incredibly cursed Vision Pro persona. My virtual avatar’s head was cocked back, cackling into the pixelated void, her hair one solid unmoving block. It wasn’t good – but it also wasn’t the end of the world.

With iPadOS 26, the company hasn’t completely taken off the guardrails for how you can use and place apps on your tablet, but it came awfully close. With a couple of clever iPad-specific tricks, and better support for […]

And right now, it appears, we’re doing glassy again. On this episode of The Vergecast, Nilay and David are joined by The Verge’s Allison Johnson and Victoria Song to […]
