Samsung Galaxy phones come pre-loaded with a handful of “duplicate” apps. For example, the Samsung Galaxy S25 comes with Google Photos and Samsung Gallery, both pre-installed as photo and video gallery apps. It usually makes sense to use Google Photos, but you shouldn’t write off Samsung Gallery too early. Samsung’s own gallery app offers a…
Alan Cumming briefly paused Sunday’s BAFTA Film Awards on two separate occasions to address the expletives and racial slur that Tourette’s syndrome advocate John Davidson yelled during the telecast, according to reports. Davidson is the subject of the BAFTA-nominated biopic “I Swear” and was diagnosed with Tourette’s syndrome at the age of 25. His symptoms…
The Federal Trade Commission took action against an AI-powered photo app that secretly harvested biometric data from users’ personal images, marking one of the clearest examples of how apps distributed through major platforms like Google Play can quietly exploit the private photos and videos people trust them to store.

The streamer’s movie library also includes an absolute gut-punch sports drama that was released and, unfortunately, largely passed over by the entertainment industry’s awards bodies just a few years ago. One of this…
