iPhone users on Google Fi will now get all their voicemails in the Phone app
In August, Google plans to phase out voicemail in the iOS Google Fi app. 'If you have voicemails you want to keep, you must download them using Google Takeout before August 13th,' the team says in its post. 'After this date, they will no longer be available in the Google Fi app.'
If you use Google Fi and have an iPhone, you may have seen some voicemails show up in the iOS Phone app before this announcement. But that has only happened under a specific set of circumstances. If a user had iOS's Live Voicemail feature turned on, your phone was turned on, and you were within Google Fi's service area when getting a voicemail, that voicemail would be delivered to the iPhone's Phone app, Google's Patrick Seybold tells The Verge. After this update has rolled out to you, all voicemails will show up in the iPhone's Phone app.
Google teased in April that this change was in the works. At that time, Google also announced a more affordable Google Fi Unlimited Essentials plan that costs $35 per month.

Delete Any App On Your Smartphone If You See This On Screen
Even as Google and Apple make headlines with new security features for Android and iPhone, the mobile threat landscape has never been worse. Your phone is under attack from malicious texts and emails, malware-laced apps, even over-the-air threats. Some of this is hard to detect. But one message on screen is a glaring red flag. It's fairly straightforward to ensure your phone — the digital key to your life — is better protected. Do not click links or download unexpected attachments; do not install apps from outside official stores; and always run an updated version of the phone's OS. It should be that simple, but it's not. There are upwards of a billion smartphones that are running outdated operating systems that no longer receive security updates. Sideloading apps from emails, messages and third-party stores remains popular. And hardly a week goes by without news of new text or email attacks claiming victims. But there is one safeguard that really is simple. It stops attackers hijacking devices and taking control of your cameras and microphone. It prevents current threats such as LumaSpy and PlayPraetor from carrying out their worst. And it makes it immeasurably more difficult for bad actors to run riot on your device. We're talking accessibility services, permissions which grant wholesale access to a phone. 'Your app must use platform-level accessibility services only for the purpose of helping users with disabilities interact with your app,' Google says. But alas this is the golden ticket for malware developers. All they need to do is trick you into saying yes. The 'power' of these accessibility services is such that 'very few official apps will mess with it for fear of attracting the wrath of Google,' Bitdefender says. But unfortunately, 'malicious apps don't have the same qualms,' and 'many types of malware will try to gain access to this permission as a way to take over control and monitor devices.' Google has locked down accessibility services. But 'the security enhancements aimed at limiting abuse of Android's accessibility services have been systematically circumvented by sophisticated malware loaders. This has enabled a new generation of banking trojans, keyloggers, and remote access tools to persistently target users.' The screenshots above (courtesy of Zimperium) illustrate what you need to look for. Any app you have installed that asks for 'full control' is a serious risk. Unless you have downloaded an app that requires control of a device given your own personal needs, it's dangerous to grant these permissions. You should delete the app.

Smart Port Market worth $7.95 billion by 2030
DELRAY BEACH, Fla., Aug. 14, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The global Smart Port Market is anticipated to grow from estimated USD 2.53 billion in 2025 to USD 7.95 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 25.8% during the forecast period. The Smart Port Market is constantly growing due to the increasing attention to improving port efficiency, safety, and environmental sustainability, as well as the growing volumes of international trade and cargo flows. This development is also encouraged by the increased fears of port congestion, carbon emissions, and the efficient operations of logistics. Modernization of digital technologies has become vital, as global supply chains experience a bundle of pressure from a rise in e-commerce, changing trade behavior, and the need for real-time data transparency. The predicted maintenance, the optimal management of the traffic of the vessels, and the efficient control of the containers, with the help of smart port solutions, which include AI-powered cranes, IoT-enabled sensors, a digital twin platform, and a blockchain-based documentation system, reduce the turnaround time, decreasing the cost of operation and increasing safety. In the developed world, the effort to modernize the old port facility contributes to deploying smart technology, primarily in the developed world. The massive exercise in installing new port projects and government-sponsored digitalization campaigns catalyzes the demand in emerging markets. Moreover, the attention of international regulations to ensure the reduction of maritime emissions and the transition into the integrated, data-driven port ecosystem would also contribute to market growth. Browse in-depth TOC on 'Smart Port Market' 155 - Tables79 - Figures300 - Pages Download PDF Brochure: Seaports to record higher CAGR during forecast period. Seaports will be the fastest-growing segment within the Smart Port Market during the forecast period, owing to the primary importance of this segment in the international maritime business and its ability to encourage the massive side of digitalization. The cargo processed at seaports is far larger than that at inland ports, so automation, real-time tracking, predictive analysis, and energy-efficient operations are essential. Seaports such as Tuas Mega Port, Shanghai Yangshan, Busan, and Vizhinjam have engaged in massive investments in technologies such as cranes powered by artificial intelligence, autonomous carriers, digital twins, and an integrated port community system to enhance efficiency and minimize turnaround time in leading international seaports. Such intelligent upgrades not only increase the throughput but also fit within the framework of decarbonization and sustainability requirements. The smart infrastructure is implemented more quickly because seaports provide additional funding and foster public–private partnerships, given their strategic position in global trade. Asia Pacific to hold largest market share during forecast period. During the forecast period, Asia Pacific is expected to be the largest region for the Smart Port Market, driven by strong trade growth combined with extensive port infrastructure, governmental initiatives of digitalization, and being a subject of extensive investments in port modernization. Some of the busiest and most technologically advanced ports in the world can be found in this region, including Singapore, Shanghai, and Busan, which are already deploying smart technologies, including AI, IoT, and digital twin systems, to make their operations more efficient and decrease the turnaround time. Smart port developments in Asia are also boosted by China's Belt and Road Initiative, which aims to improve connectivity and infrastructure. Also, other nations, such as India, are keen on investing in digitizing ports, such as the Sagarmala Program and Port Community System 1x. The rising pressure to manage the increasing cargo quantities, minimize environmental impacts, and enhance the supply chain strength is compelling both the open and the closed parties in the locale to use smart solutions.
