Now your iPhone 6 can take even better photos with Olloclip’s 4-in-1 lens

Introducing the olloclip 4-in-1 for iPhone 6/6 Plus
Another iPhone, another lineup of new accessories. Olloclip revamped its 4-in-1 lens attachment to fit the new iPhone 6 and  iPhone 6 Plus. The same, high-quality macro, fisheye, and wide-angle lenses are built into a brand-new design that’s made to fit the iPhone 6 and its bigger twin.

The lens attachment now adds lenses on both of the iPhone’s cameras at the same time, so you can take wide-angle selfies with the front camera and and sharp closeups with the macro lens on the back. There’s a 10x macro, a 15x macro, as well as the same wide-angle and fisheye lenses as before. Olloclip says the new design should make it even easier to take pictures with whichever camera you choose. Photos taken with the lenses are compatible with most photo sharing and editing apps.

Since the attachment itself is larger than previous versions of Olloclip, the company created a pendant-like case to hold the lenses. You can either wear it as a necklace or clip it onto a backpack, belt loop, or other strap. Olloclip didn’t say which color options will be offered for the pendant. However, the lens attachment comes in a few different color combinations including silver and black, gold and white, red and black, gray and black, or silver and white.

It’s the end of the road for these two iPhone models
Apple iPhone 6S Plus

Seeing your favorite handheld gaming device in a retro store has a unique way of making you feel old, but Apple might have topped it. According to the company, the iPhone XS Max and iPhone 6s Plus are now "vintage." They join the ranks of the iPhone 4 and even the iPad Pro 12.9-inch model.

It's not wholly unexpected. Apple declares a device vintage after five years, and that means it becomes more difficult to have that device repaired or to find replacement parts for it. Obsolete is applied to products that are more than seven years old, but sometimes certain variants get that label early.

Google Gemini arrives on iPhone as a native app
the Google extensions feature on iPhone

Google announced Thursday that it has released a new native Gemini app for iOS that will give iPhone users free, direct access to the chatbot without the need for a mobile web browser.

The Gemini mobile app has been available for Android since February, when the platform transitioned from the older Bard branding. However, iOS users could only access the AI on their phones through either the mobile Google app or via a web browser. This new app provides a more streamlined means of chatting with the bot as well as a host of new (to iOS) features.

A few days ago, Google Gemini appeared in the Apple App Store for a user in the Philippines, who was even able to download it. We took it as a sign that the new AI assistant would soon make its way to the App Store in the U.S. Well, we were right, as you can now download Gemini as a standalone app on your iPhone, after previously only being able to access it through a browser.

The Gemini app is free to download and has a surprising number of features available. More powerful functions are available for a $20-per-month subscription, but you can try Gemini Advanced out for one month for free. It grants priority access to new features and gives a "1 million token" context window.
