With a free eligibility check for flights from the past three years, the app ensures passengers can easily claim what they are rightfully owed.

Passengers can simply add AirHelp+ protection via the app to cover flight delays, cancellations, or baggage issues, ensuring they are not only supported during disruptions but are compensated quickly without hassle. AirHelp+ administers these insurance payouts within hours, which is on top of the compensation passengers can also claim for. Speaking on the new app, Tomasz Pawliszyn, CEO at AirHelp said: "Flight disruptions are an increasing concern for passengers, especially as we approach the summer season. Our mission has always been to advocate for passengers, and with this new app, we are taking that commitment to the next level.

Anthropic joins Google and OpenAI in launching voice mode for its chatbot: Here's what it can do
Anthropic, following in the footsteps of Google and OpenAI, is rolling out a dedicated voice mode for its own AI chatbot, which it calls Claude. olling out in beta on mobile, the voice mode lets users simply speak to Claude to perform a wide range of tasks. This is coming to the Claude mobile app and is available in English. In a post for the company on X (formerly known as Twitter), the company revealed the kind of functionality this mode would bring. In the teaser, we can see the Claude AI helping users schedule and fetching information from places like Gmail, Google Documents, and Google Calendar. 'This feature enables you to speak to Claude and hear responses through voice, making it easier to use Claude when your hands are busy but your mind isn't,' Anthropic said. Alex Albert, the head of the company's Claude relations, said, "Early implementation of voice but something that I've already found very fun and useful.' Anthropic says that voice mode can also display key points on-screen as Claude speaks, as well as switch between text and voice within the same conversation. Claude joins Google Gemini and OpenAI's ChatGPT in launching a voice experience. ChatGPT has had a voice-based assistant for a while now, wherein you could converse with the chatbot and accomplish a wide range of use cases, right from asking it to teach you a particular language to asking it to pretend to be an interviewer. The same goes for Google Gemini Live, which has gained more abilities over the past few months or so, including being able to see though the camera and give you responses based on what is on your screen. Also Read: Realme Neo 7 Turbo key features tipped online ahead of May 29 launch: Here's what to expect There are going to be fundamental differences in how Anthropic segregates the functionality between paid and free users, with paid users being allowed to access Google Workspace features, including being able to connect Google Calendar and Gmail so that the chatbot can fetch details from them. This will reportedly not be available for the free version. For free users, Anthopic notes claims approximately 20-30 voice messages before reaching session limits. For paid users, this number is 'significantly higher.' MOBILE FINDER: iPhone 16 LATEST Price, Specs And More

What the Tech: New Google features
If you are firmly in the world of Google (Gmail, Google Calendar, Chrome, Search, Google Keep, etc), you're going to love what the tech company unveiled at its recent Google I/O event. Google announced some 100 new features coming to its products that incorporate advanced AI. Never mind the things you can do now with Gemini, it's about to get much bigger and better. 'AI is going to make things easier to give people the information they need,' said Google's Christina Basillo over a video chat. 'Hopefully, it'll just be that personal assistant to make everyday life that much easier.' So what's new? A lot. And at the moment, the new version of Google Gemini looks as though to be more powerful and helpful than both Siri and Amazon Alexa. And if you're entrenched in the Google echosystem, you may find it even better than Chat GPT and Perplexity. First, the old way of searching on Google, with pages upon pages of results, is changing. Google is integrating AI to transform search into a more personal and efficient experience. 'It helps you go deeper,' said Basillo. 'Let's say you're going on vacation soon and trying to figure out where you're going to eat, where you're going to stay, and where you should visit. AL Mode is going to be that personal assistant that can take one query and do a bunch of queries behind the scenes and then curate a full list of information you can click through.' Gemini is set to function more like a personal assistant than a simple search engine. Imagine asking for restaurants in a city and Gemini not only providing a list but actually calling the restaurant, booking a reservation, and adding it to your calendar. That's the level of convenience Google is aiming for. Shopping online is also set for a major overhaul. You'll soon be able to share a photo with Gemini and search for a specific item, like a sweater or a dress. Even better, Gemini can overlay that item onto a photo of you, in your size, giving you a better idea of how it will look and fit. This feature aims to eliminate the guesswork from online shopping and reduce returns. Communication is another area where Gemini shines. In Google Meet, real-time language translation will be available, allowing seamless conversations with people speaking different languages. The translation will sound natural, avoiding the robotic tone often associated with translation tools. And Gemini's live voice feature can describe what you're seeing in real-time. Point your phone at an object, like a volleyball, and Gemini can identify the brand and direct you to a website to purchase it. Google also teased smart glasses with similar capabilities, including taking photos and videos, though these are not yet available. Many of the new Gemini features are already live on Android and iPhones. If you haven't seen them yet, make sure to update your Gemini app. It's clear Google wants AI to play a central role in our lives, making everyday tasks easier and more intuitive. The future of tech is here, and it's powered by Gemini. You can try it out now. Many of the features are free for all Google users, but some of the more advanced features require a Google One subscription. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

It can also search the web and switch between text and voice whenever. Voice Mode will have five different options for users to choose from. For free users, Claude just has 20-30 voice messages while paid users have 'significantly higher' usage limits, a blog posted by the company said. Additionally, only subscribers to the paid plan can connect voice mode with Google Workspace for access to Google apps.
