Pixel camera app creators tweak Indigo to address its biggest flaws
TL;DR The latest update to the new Project Indigo app disables super-resolution by default on many iPhones.
The changes appear aimed at reducing overheating and stability issues reported in early tests.
Other tweaks include thermal warning adjustments and lower capture rates on weaker devices.
When we tested Project Indigo last month, we were impressed with its lifelike photos, but the app also caused our iPhone 16 to run hot and freeze up. Indigo is built by two of the creators behind Google's Pixel camera app, and now a fresh update (Version 10.2) has landed this week that appears to address these sorts of issues.
According to the release notes, the Indigo update disables super-resolution by default on the iPhone 14 Pro, 14 Pro Max, 15, and 15 Plus models. It also tweaks thermal warnings so they only appear when the device reaches a 'critical' temperature state rather than earlier in the overheating process.
Other changes include quality fixes for multi-frame super-resolution in scenes with both bright and low dynamic range areas, as well as reduced photo capture rates on lower-performing devices to improve stability. Tech Previews are also now disabled while captures are processing, and the update rounds out with general bug fixes and improvements.

While the update doesn't explicitly mention performance or overheating fixes, many of these adjustments seem aimed at reducing the app's processing load and preventing the heat build-up that could be the cause of crashes.
There's still no timeline for the Android version of Indigo, but the developers previously confirmed it is in the works.

Palo Alto Networks Reports Fiscal Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year 2025 Financial Results
Fiscal fourth quarter revenue grew 16% year over year to $2.5 billion. Fiscal year 2025 revenue grew 15% year over year to $9.2 billion. Next-Generation Security ARR grew 32% year over year to $5.6 billion. Remaining performance obligation grew 24% year over year to $15.8 billion. SANTA CLARA, Calif., Aug. 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Palo Alto Networks® (NASDAQ: PANW), the global cybersecurity leader, announced today financial results for its fiscal fourth quarter and fiscal year, ended July 31, 2025. Total revenue for the fiscal fourth quarter 2025 grew 16% year over year to $2.5 billion, compared with total revenue of $2.2 billion for the fiscal fourth quarter 2024. GAAP net income for the fiscal fourth quarter 2025 was $253.8 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, compared with GAAP net income of $357.7 million, or $0.51 per diluted share, for the fiscal fourth quarter 2024. Non-GAAP net income for the fiscal fourth quarter 2025 was $673.0 million, or $0.95 per diluted share, compared with non-GAAP net income of $522.2 million, or $0.75 per diluted share, for the fiscal fourth quarter 2024. A reconciliation between GAAP and non-GAAP information is contained in the tables below. "Our strong execution in Q4 reflects a fundamental market shift in which customers understand that a fragmented defense is no defense at all against modern threats. They are partnering with us because our platforms are designed to work in concert, creating powerful operational synergies that deliver superior, near real-time outcomes and the efficiency our customers need," said Nikesh Arora, chairman and CEO of Palo Alto Networks. "We exited fiscal year 2025 with an acceleration in RPO, and surpassed the $10 billion revenue run-rate milestone, positioning ourselves well for sustained growth ahead." "Our strong top-line results were complemented by continued operating efficiency and strong free cash flow generation, making us a 'Rule-of-50' company for the fifth consecutive year," said Dipak Golechha, chief financial officer of Palo Alto Networks. "We are excited to carry this momentum into fiscal year 2026, where we will continue to execute against our profitable growth framework." Financial Outlook Palo Alto Networks provides guidance based on current market conditions and expectations. For the fiscal first quarter 2026, we expect: Next-Generation Security ARR of $5.82 billion to $5.84 billion, representing year-over-year growth of 29%. Remaining performance obligation of $15.4 billion to $15.5 billion, representing year-over-year growth of 23%. Total revenue in the range of $2.45 billion to $2.47 billion, representing year-over-year growth of 15%. Diluted non-GAAP net income per share in the range of $0.88 to $0.90, using 709 million to 712 million shares outstanding. For the fiscal year 2026, we expect: Next-Generation Security ARR of $7.00 billion to $7.10 billion, representing year-over-year growth of between 26% and 27%. Remaining performance obligation of $18.6 billion to $18.7 billion, representing year-over-year growth of between 17% and 18%. Total revenue in the range of $10.475 billion to $10.525 billion, representing year-over-year growth of 14%. Non-GAAP operating margin in the range of 29.2% to 29.7%. Diluted non-GAAP net income per share in the range of $3.75 to $3.85, using 710 million to 716 million shares outstanding. Adjusted free cash flow margin in the range of 38.0% to 39.0%. Guidance for non-GAAP financial measures excludes share-based compensation-related charges, including share-based payroll tax expense, acquisition-related costs, including change in fair value of contingent consideration liability, amortization expense of acquired intangible assets, litigation-related charges, including legal settlements, non-cash charges related to convertible notes, and income tax and other tax adjustments related to our long-term non-GAAP effective tax rate, along with certain non-recurring expenses and certain non-recurring cash flows. We have not reconciled non-GAAP operating margin guidance to GAAP operating margin, diluted non-GAAP net income per share guidance to GAAP net income per diluted share or adjusted free cash flow margin guidance to GAAP net cash from operating activities because we do not provide guidance on GAAP operating margin, GAAP net income or net cash from operating activities and would not be able to present the various reconciling cash and non-cash items between GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures because certain items that impact these measures are uncertain or out of our control, or cannot be reasonably predicted, including share-based compensation expense, without unreasonable effort. The actual amounts of such reconciling items will have a significant impact on the company's GAAP net income per diluted share and GAAP net cash from operating activities. Earnings Call Information Palo Alto Networks will host a video webcast for analysts and investors to discuss the company's fiscal fourth quarter and fiscal year 2025 results as well as the outlook for its fiscal first quarter and fiscal year 2026 today at 4:30 p.m. Eastern time/1:30 p.m. Pacific time.

For additional risks and uncertainties on these and other factors that could affect our financial results and cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements we make in this press release are included under the captions "Risk Factors" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and elsewhere in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on May 21, 2025, which is available on our website at and on the SEC's website at Additional information will also be set forth in other documents that we file with or furnish to the SEC from time to time. All forward-looking statements in this press release are based on our current beliefs and information available to management as of the date hereof and are inherently uncertain, and we do not assume any obligation to update the forward-looking statements provided to reflect events that occur or circumstances that exist after the date on which they were made. Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Key Metrics Palo Alto Networks has provided in this press release financial information that has not been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). The company uses these non-GAAP financial measures and other key metrics internally in analyzing its financial results and believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures and key metrics are helpful to investors as an additional tool to evaluate ongoing operating results and trends, and in comparing the company's financial results with other companies in its industry, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures or key metrics. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures and key metrics are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP financial measures and should be read only in conjunction with the company's consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of the company's historical non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measures has been provided in the financial statement tables included in this press release, and investors are encouraged to review these reconciliations. Non-GAAP net income and net income per share, diluted. Palo Alto Networks defines non-GAAP net income as net income plus share-based compensation-related charges, including share-based payroll tax expense, acquisition-related costs, including change in fair value of contingent consideration liability, amortization expense of acquired intangible assets, litigation-related charges, including legal settlements, and non-cash charges related to convertible notes. The company also excludes from non-GAAP net income tax adjustments related to our long-term non-GAAP effective tax rate in order to provide a complete picture of the company's recurring core business operating results. The company defines non-GAAP net income per share, diluted, as non-GAAP net income divided by the weighted-average diluted shares outstanding, which includes the potentially dilutive effect of the company's employee equity incentive plan awards and the company's convertible senior notes and related warrants, after giving effect to the anti-dilutive impact of the company's note hedge agreements, which reduced the potential economic dilution that otherwise would have occurred in connection with the conversion and settlement of the company's convertible senior notes. Under GAAP, the anti-dilutive impact of the note hedge is not reflected in diluted shares outstanding. The company considers these non-GAAP financial measures to be useful metrics for management and investors for the same reasons that it uses non-GAAP operating margin. Next-Generation Security ARR. Palo Alto Networks defines Next-Generation Security ARR as the annualized allocated revenue of all active contracts as of the final day of the reporting period related to all product, subscription and support offerings, excluding revenue from hardware products, and legacy attached subscriptions, support offerings and professional services. The company considers Next-Generation Security ARR to be a useful operating metric for management and investors to assess the performance of the company because Next-Generation Security is where the company has focused its innovation and the company expects its overall revenue to be disproportionately driven by this Next-Generation Security portfolio. Because Next-Generation Security ARR does not have the effect of providing a numerical measure that is different from any comparable GAAP measure, the company does not consider it a non-GAAP measure. Investors are cautioned that there are a number of limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures and key metrics as analytical tools. Many of the adjustments to the company's GAAP financial measures reflect the exclusion of items that are recurring and will be reflected in the company's financial results for the foreseeable future, such as share-based compensation, which is an important part of Palo Alto Networks' employees' compensation and impacts their performance. Furthermore, these non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP, and the components that Palo Alto Networks excludes in its calculation of non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the components that its peer companies exclude when they report their non-GAAP results of operations. Palo Alto Networks compensates for these limitations by providing specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from these non-GAAP financial measures. In the future, the company may also exclude non-recurring expenses and other expenses that do not reflect the company's core business operating results.

Bank of America suggests the era of the biggest stocks dominating markets 'may be done'
The stock market has been all about the biggest companies driving the largest gains for the better part of the last decade. That era could be coming to an end. "History would suggest there is more to go in cap-weighted dominance," Bank of America's head of US equity and quantative strategy Savita Subramanian wrote in a note to clients. "But if the Fed's next move is a rate cut, and if the Regime indicator is shifting to a Recovery, we think the run may be closer to done." Work from Subramanian's team found that the largest 50 stocks in the S&P 500 (^GSPC) have outperformed the benchmark index by 73 percentage points since 2015. BofA notes the last notable run of similar outperformance for the 50 largest stocks in the index came in the late 1990s leading into the bursting of the dot-com bubble. Following the bust, the market saw a large shift from megacap growth leading to value and small-cap stocks outperforming during the early 2000s. Subramanian thinks a similar tide shift might be coming to markets now. BofA's "regime indicator" breaks market cycles into four parts: Recovery, Mid Cycle, Late Cycle, and Downturn. The firm looks at a variety of factors such as corporate earnings revisions, inflation data, and economic growth projections. Currently, its work suggests markets moving from the Downturn phase — which is positive for megacaps with the most earnings power and strongest market position — to the Recovery phase. "[Federal Reserve] easing has been accompanied by Mega caps lagging more than leading, and higher inflation should support a broadening of the S&P 500 beyond defensives/secular growth," Subramanian wrote. Subramanian's call would mark a massive shift in the dominant market narrative. Since the start of the current bull market in October 2022, large-cap technology has been the clear winner in the stock market as the artificial intelligence boom has taken hold. For much of both 2023 and 2024, a small group of technology stocks, once dubbed the "Magnificent Seven," have been pulling the stock market higher. This had also been the case since the most recent market bottom in April. In a note to clients on Aug. 13, DataTrek Research co-founder Jessica Rabe highlighted how the top 20 stocks by market cap in the index have risen an average of 40.6% since the bottom, far outpacing the benchmark index's 27.9% gain over the same time period. This means the top 20 holdings have helped pull the index higher, while the other 480 stocks have been "a net drag" on the index in relative terms, Rabe wrote. Nvidia (NVDA), the world's largest company, has seen its stock nearly double since April 9. Nearly all of the names in the group that have outperformed the S&P 500 index — including Microsoft (MSFT), Apple (AAPL), Amazon (AMZN), Alphabet (GOOGL, GOOG), Meta (META), and Palantir (PLTR) — have some sort of AI growth story. But in recent weeks, there have been some signs of rotation under the surface. The small-cap Russell 2000 (^RUT), which hasn't hit a new high since 2021, is up about 6% in August, outperforming the S&P 500's roughly 3.5% gain over the same time period.

Envoy Technologies Update On August 6, 2025, Blink announced that it has reached an agreement with the former shareholders of its wholly owned subsidiary, Envoy Technologies, Inc. ('Envoy'), a leading provider of on-demand electric vehicle car-sharing services for real estate companies, to amend the organization's planned merger agreement. The amended agreement releases Blink from all payment obligations and liability following the issuance of $10 million in shares of Company common stock, based on the volume-weighted average trading price for the 25 trading days preceding the issuance date, and warrants exercisable for shares of Company common stock with an aggregate notional value of $11 million, divided into three tranches with vesting conditions as follows: $2.5 million worth of warrants that will vest upon the common stock of Blink reaching a price per share of $1.70 for seven consecutive days; $2.5 million worth of warrants that will vest upon the common stock of Blink reaching a price per share of $2.10 for seven consecutive days; and $6 million worth of warrants that will vest upon the common stock of Blink reaching a price per share of $4.85 for seven consecutive days. These warrants will expire 20 months after their issuance date. Further details of the agreement may be found here. Business Outlook Based on current visibility, Blink expects to achieve continued sequential revenue growth in the second half of 2025. Looking ahead, the Company expects to maintain strong momentum across both its recurring and repeatable charging revenue streams. Recurring revenues, derived primarily from network fees, are expected to benefit from the expanding installed base of chargers. At the same time, the Company expects growth in repeatable charging revenue as it scales its EV charging infrastructure, driven by increased utilization and rising energy prices. The Company remains committed to advancing operational efficiency through disciplined expense management and targeted initiatives aimed at lowering operating costs and reducing cash burn. These efforts are central to the Company's strategy to strengthen the business model and define a clear path to profitability.

To facilitate external analysis of the Company's operating performance, Blink Charging also presents financial information that is considered 'non-GAAP financial measures' under Regulation G and related reporting requirements promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, Net Income (Loss) or other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP and may be different than those presented by other companies, including Blink Charging's competitors. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP and are therefore considered non-GAAP measures. Reconciliation tables are presented above. EBITDA is defined as earnings (loss) attributable to Blink Charging before interest income (expense), provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Blink Charging believes EBITDA is useful to its management, securities analysts, and investors in evaluating operating performance because it is one of the primary measures used to evaluate the economic productivity of the Company's operations, including its ability to obtain and maintain its customers, its ability to operate its business effectively, the efficiency of its employees and the profitability associated with their performance. It also helps Blink Charging's management, securities analysts, and investors to meaningfully evaluate and compare the results of the Company's operations from period to period on a consistent basis by removing the impact of its merger and acquisition expenses, financing transactions, and the depreciation and amortization impact of capital investments from its operating results. The Company also believes that Adjusted EBITDA, defined as EBITDA adjusted for non-recurring or non-cash items such as stock-based compensation, acquisition related costs, estimated loss related to sale of underperforming assets of subsidiary, change in fair value related to consideration payable, and assets impairment is useful to securities analysts and investors to evaluate the Company's core operating results and financial performance because it excludes items that are significant non-cash or non-recurring expenses reflected in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Our definition of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS may differ from other companies reporting similarly named measures. These measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP, such as Net Loss, and Diluted Earnings per Share.
