Hi, friends! Welcome to Installer No. 34, your guide to the best and Verge-iest stuff in the world. This week, I’ve been writing about the Humane AI Pin and the Aboard app, reading about the Com World War and why studios cancel already-made movies, watching Ripley and a deep dive into the Game Boy’s incredible sturdiness and power, listening to The Rest is History take on Martin Luther, and seeing if Amazon’s Echo Frames can replace my headphones.
Here’s Eric’s homescreen, plus some info on the apps he uses and why: The phone: Samsung Z Flip 5 — smallest Android phone on the market right now! The wallpaper: No idea, probably a default one? The apps: Maps, Photos, YouTube Music, Phone, Camera, Superhuman, Beeper, Chrome. One of the things I love the most about Android is how few taps are required to perform tasks. I love having Calendar and Google Search right on the homescreen.
