Substack writers can now direct U.S. readers to (often cheaper) web-based subscriptions on iOS
Newsletter subscription platform Substack will begin taking advantage of an option on the U.S. App Store that allows users to make purchases outside of Apple's in-app purchasing system. This functionality is permitted by a change to the App Store's rules in May, as a result of Epic Games' antitrust lawsuit against the tech giant. Since then, a number of top apps have moved to offer in-app purchase links that point to their own websites, including Spotify, Patreon, and the Amazon Kindle app, among others. In Substack's case, support for external payments will benefit both the company, which no longer has to pay the App Store a commission on those web sales, and consumers, who will have access to reduced pricing. Meanwhile, Substack creators will be able to offer their readers the option of whether they want the convenience of Apple's in-app payments system (IAP) or the web payment option, which is now accessible without having to leave the app. Substack explains it will automatically adjust its customers' iOS app price higher to account for Apple's fees, allowing creators to take home the same amount of money as a web subscription. However, Substack writers can disable this feature if they choose. (Substack will continue to take its own 10% fee based on the web subscription price, as before.) The company said it's also offering its writers migration tools to help them move their subscribers off Apple's payments system and onto its web-based system. Currently, more than 30,000 publications on the platform have in-app purchases enabled; Substack says early tests of the expanded set of payment options have driven a boost in paid sign-ups. It did not, however, share specific numbers related to this. The public launch of the external payments option will only impact new Substack subscriptions. Substack writers don't have to take any action unless they want to lower the prices for those using Apple's payments system. Per Apple's App Store rules, fully opting out of offering IAP is not allowed. While the changes impact the Substack app in the U.S., the company says it's still evaluating if it makes sense to switch to the more complex rules Apple offers in the EU and U.K. for developers who want to forgo IAP.

OpenAI's Sam Altman hypes mystery ChatGPT device — 'It's so beautiful, a case would be a crime'
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman is building anticipation for the company's much anticipated ChatGPT device, teasing not just cutting-edge intelligence but a design so sleek, it demands to be shown off. During a recent dinner with journalists and originally reported by TechCrunch, Altman described the hardware as 'so beautiful' that it shouldn't be hidden under a protective case. 'If you put a case on it,' Altman joked, 'I will personally hunt you down.' If that reminds you of the sort of hype that surrounded the original iPhone, that makes sense. Legendary Apple designer Jony Ive is leading the charge for this new gadget. OpenAI announced that it was Jonny Ive's AI hardware company back in May for $6.5 billion, and now we're hearing more about the new device. While Altman and OpenAI have kept most of the details under wraps, here's what we know so far about the AI gadget making headlines: The upcoming ChatGPT device could fundamentally change how we interact with AI by shifting the experience away from screens and toward seamless, ambient assistance. Its screen-free, voice-first design suggests it's built to be always on and context-aware, helping you proactively without requiring taps or swipes. Unlike traditional AI tools that live in a browser or an app, this device is meant to live with you; small enough to wear or carry, yet powerful enough to serve as a true companion. OpenAI's bold design-first approach, combined with Jony Ive's aesthetic influence and ambitious production targets, signals that this is a paradigm shift in how AI fits into our daily lives. Sam Altman's warning against putting a case on the ChatGPT device may be a joke, but the underlying message is clear that OpenAI is betting that beautifully designed hardware could change the way we experience AI entirely. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. It marks a potential turning point where our interactions move beyond screens and commands into seamless, ambient experiences woven into how we live, work and connect.

My iPhone 17 Wish List Has Just One Item, and It's None of the Usual Suspects
We're now less than a month away from Apple unveiling the iPhone 17, if rumors are to be believed. I always look forward to this highlight of the tech calendar, especially since I've been writing about and primarily using an iPhone for well over a decade. When it comes to the 2025 iPhone, there's one thing I'd love to see Apple prioritize -- and it might not be what you expect. It's not a cool new design, a bigger battery or a more impressive camera. It's definitely not advanced AI capabilities. Don't miss any of CNET's unbiased tech content and lab-based reviews. Add us as a preferred Google source on Chrome. Instead what I'd love to see from the iPhone 17 is even better repairability, particularly more self-repair options. A lot of tech inevitably passes through my hands as part of my job, but I feel a keen responsibility not to feed into the culture of over-consumption. Treating gadgets as disposable is an unrealistic way to live, and it places a heavy burden on our already overburdened planet. Extending the life of our tech through repair is one of the tools at our disposal to reduce that burden. Increasingly, and partly due to an increase in right-to-repair legislation coming into force around the world, tech companies are making it easier for us to perform these repairs ourselves, rather than relying solely on costly in-house repair schemes. For a long time, Apple was not among them. In fact, it strongly advised people not to tinker with their iPhones at home at all. That all changed in 2021 when it introduced its Self-Repair Program. It's continued to take strides in making it easier to repair phones -- which, let's not forget, are complex, intricately designed pieces of technology. But it still has some way to go, especially when it comes to ease and accessibility. I'm currently using an iPhone 15 Pro Max that's rapidly approaching its second birthday. It's no spring chicken, but aside from its waning battery capacity, I have absolutely no complaints about its performance. Next month it will get its annual software upgrade with the release of iOS 26 and it will feel brand new to me all over again. This is a phone that has years of life left in it -- if I choose to replace the battery, that is. But in all truthfulness, I'm nervous to do it. I've repaired plenty of tech in my time, usually under the supervision of someone far more skilled than I am, but the stakes feel so much higher. The spare parts and repair tools aren't cheap, and it could quickly get even more expensive if I mess it up. Then I'd have no choice but to invest in a new phone after all. I'm determined to try, but I'd also like Apple to make it even easier in the future for me to replace the battery -- I don't want to feel like I'm conducting open-heart surgery on my phone. I have to commend the company for its efforts in this direction already. When Kyle Wiens, CEO of online community, advocacy group and parts retailer iFixit, performed his first teardown of the iPhone 16 last year, he pointed out many of the repairability improvements Apple introduced with the model and praised the company for releasing the repair manual on the same day as the phone. Two months later, Apple started selling replacement components via its Self-Repair Program. Even better, the company lets people rent, rather than buy, the repair kits they need, reducing further waste and the overall cost of making repairs. It was an important step in the right direction for Apple and spurred iFixit to award the iPhone 16 a repairability score of 7/10. That still leaves room for improvement, and I hope to see the iPhone take at least one additional step toward becoming the gold standard in phone repairability this year. It's not an easy thing for a phone-maker to do, but Apple has been a pioneer in so many respects. Why not this one too?
