iPhone Air – 3 Early Impressions

The irony is not lost on us that one of the best ways we’ve found to combat subscription fatigue is to subscribe to a service like Monarch (that link will give you 50% off). It connects your entire financial picture and lets you clearly see everything you’ve subscribed to, so you can unsubscribe (which should be easier) and save some money. Highly recommend giving this one a watch.

As reported by AndroidAuthority, just like Android’s new Rambler feature, which came to the Pixel 11 series of phones as an exclusive, Android 17’s new Pause Point feature is also an exclusive. This feature not only allows you to add a delay before opening apps you deem distracting or addictive, but you can also divert to a preferred app, set a time limit for apps, and even force yourself to pause and reflect on why you’re in a particular app before hitting a button to go back into it.

It’s unclear when and if this feature is supposed to come to other Android phones.

The new app lets you customize not just the light color, but also different pulses and animations. Check out David Imel’s piece on The Verge that dives into everything it can do.
