Apple rebuilt the Shortcuts app around a text box. Open iOS 27, tap the plus button, and where the action library used to sit there is now a prompt asking what you want. Type "when I arrive home after 6pm, turn on the living room lights and set my Personal Focus", and Apple Intelligence picks the actions, wires the variables and hands you a finished automation to inspect. It works. It also fails in one way that will kill half the ideas you are about to have.Which iPhones can run itAbout The AuthorAt heart, I am a storyteller drawn to the watershed moments that bend the technology landscape. I braid narrative with data, humanise statistics, and trace the arc from first spark to world-changing impact. My reportage, features and reviews are witty, sardonic, visual and vivid, using anecdote to illuminate rather than eviscerate.
As a technology journalist with over sixteen years of experience, I have travelled the world and the seven seas, covered every major tech conference worth its lanyard, chronicled the defining breakthroughs of the last decade and a half, and played a pivotal role in launching some of India’s most important technology publishing platforms across web, print and TV.
In my current role as Editor of Gadgets Now Studios, I bring that experience, instinct and editorial firepower to the table, with the mandate of scaling the brand to towering heights.
