• Chromagraph Camera is exactly the camera app I’ve been looking for on iPhone

  07-11-2026 23:30 via 9to5Mac
  
  Last week, movie director Rian Johnson announced a surprise new camera app for iPhone that reimagines what a smartphone photo should look like. Many people would agree that Apple’s iPhone photos are a tad bit overprocessed.
  iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone Duo introduced a new film texture option, but in my view, it’s a bit too exaggerated. Chromagraph Camera, on the other hand, feels pretty perfect.more…

  07-11-2026 18:45 via 9to5Mac

A humidifier like the Airversa Humelle works with Apple Home over Thread, so it can run itself based on what the air actually needs, and with the temps in my area getting into the 40s in the next week, I am glad I have one.more…
