iOS 18.4 brings a countdown timer for 2FA codes

The beta of iOS 18.4 (not to be confused with beta 4 of iOS 18) is now available for members of the developer program and public beta, although it has not yet reached non-beta users. This new version brings a series of improvements aimed at optimizing the iPhone user experience, notably the inclusion of a countdown timer for two-factor authentication (2FA) codes, a feature that makes it easier to use these codes that change every 30 seconds.

This new version brings a series of improvements aimed at optimizing the user experience of the iPhone, notably the inclusion of a countdown timer for two-factor authentication (2FA) codes, a feature that makes it easier to use these codes that change every 30 seconds.

A more secure operating system, that is the goal of iOS 18.4

One of the most important features of Apple Passwords is its fusion between a password manager and an authenticator. Previously, the problem was that 2FA codes did not inform the user when they were going to expire, complicating the login process.

With the new update, a green ring is implemented that gradually fills over 30 seconds, allowing users to have a clear indication of the remaining time until the code becomes nonexistent.

In addition to this improvement in authentication, iOS 18.4 introduces extra icons on larger CarPlay screens, AI-driven priority notifications, a new Genmoji icon for the keyboard, and additional language options for Apple Intelligence.

However, the new Personal Context feature of Siri, which aims to improve understanding of user requests, is still not available in this beta.

The final version of iOS 18.4 is likely to be released in April 2024, according to rumors. Until then, users will have to wait to enjoy all the improvements and features that this new operating system has to offer, while the gloomy points of the beta raise doubts about the arrival of some promises made by Apple in the past.

Tomb Raider fans have been eagerly awaiting a new game since Shadow of the Tomb Raider was released in 2018. While there is speculation about when Lara Croft’s next adventure will arrive, players will have the opportunity to enjoy the return of one of its spin-off games. Feral Interactive has announced that Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light will be available on iOS and Android on February 27. This game, originally released in 2010 for Xbox Live and PSN, deviates from the traditional Tomb Raider gameplay model by offering a fixed camera view and a focus on cooperative play.

A game we can already enjoy on Nintendo Switch

In Guardian of Light, Lara teams up with Totec, a Mayan warrior, to face the evil spirit Xolotl. This installment marked an evolution in the series, emphasizing character collaboration and radically changing the way players interact. Feral Interactive also brought this title and its sequel, Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris, to Nintendo Switch as part of The Lara Croft Collection in 2023.

Beyond the world of video games, there is a live-action Tomb Raider series project in development for Prime Video, where it is rumored that Sophie Turner, known for her role in Game of Thrones, will play Lara Croft. Although Amazon will also publish the upcoming Tomb Raider game, it has been noted that it will not be connected to the live-action series.

On the other hand, console fans can keep themselves entertained between releases with Tomb Raider IV-VI Remastered, a collection that includes Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation, Tomb Raider: Chronicles, and Tomb Raider: The Angel of Darkness. This set will be available on multiple platforms on February 14. Additionally, Netflix has renewed the animated series Tomb Raider: The Legend of Lara Croft for a second season.

Life is now a little easier for Netflix users on iOS devices, who can now enjoy a new and much-anticipated feature: the ability to download all episodes of a season of their favorite series with a single tap. The streaming platform announced this feature, known as Season Download, on Wednesday in response to a recurring request from its subscribers.

One click and you’ll have all the episodes

This improvement comes at a time when the demand for flexible viewing options continues to grow, especially among those who wish to enjoy content without relying on a constant internet connection. With a simple click, Netflix members will be able to access the entire season of their favorite shows, thus facilitating the preparation for series marathons during trips or in situations where connectivity is limited.

In addition to offering convenience, this feature also reinforces Netflix’s commitment to the user experience, aligning with the expectations of its vast subscriber base. The company has been consistently implementing improvements in its mobile app, as more and more people choose to watch TV and movies on portable devices.

The launch of the season download feature is undoubtedly a significant advancement for iOS users, who previously had to download episodes individually, which was cumbersome and impractical. Now, with this new option, users can optimize their time and enjoy their series more efficiently.

This feature, which is starting to become available progressively for all iOS users, reflects Netflix’s focus on maintaining its relevance in a competitive market, where improvements in accessibility and user experience are essential. With changes like this, the platform seeks to consolidate its position as a leader in the streaming industry.

Netflix has always had a problem with its video game section: how to get people to play them. Making them difficult to access and not having an interesting own catalog might have something to do with it, but it doesn’t seem like it’s something that has crossed their minds.

Squid Game, Better if It’s Both on Your Mobile and Your TV

Squid Game: Unleashed is the new Netflix game based on the successful South Korean series. Being a team-based battle royale, it is a simple but addictive game that closely follows what the series does by imitating its aesthetics and challenges. And to encourage people to play it, they have decided to integrate it with the second season of the series.

How? The more episodes you watch of the second season of Squid Game, the more rewards you’ll earn in the game. Since everything is on the same platform, you don’t even have to do anything special to achieve it. Just by playing the game and watching the series, for each episode you watch, you’ll receive a new reward in the game. This creates a synergy that Netflix hopes will boost the numbers for both the series and, especially, the game.

Additionally, the rewards are quite generous. Without watching the series, you will already earn 15,000 Cash. But as you progress in the second season of the series, you will earn more money, and even some exclusive outfits for those who are watching the series. In addition to tokens that are used to play in the roulette, which can unlock more objects and random rewards. Making it practically essential to watch the series if you want to play the game.

Pokémon TCG Pocket is (unsurprisingly) taking the world by storm. Predicting that it would do so was so easy that no one would have paid us to do it. It’s Pokémon. It’s the Pokémon card game. It’s free. It focuses more on collecting than on playing the game. It was literally impossible for it not to work as well as it has. But even in the most optimistic perspectives, it was hard to imagine the extent to which it has succeeded. Because the numbers the game is achieving are no laughing matter.

According to the analysis website AppMagic, Pokémon Magic TCG Pocket has already raised more than 200 million dollars on the App Store and Play Store. And although half of this money was raised during the first week, it remains an absolutely staggering figure.

The game, which was released on October 31st, is based on collecting Pokémon cards. Being able to open two packs of 5 cards a day, expandable thanks to the game’s free and paid currency, it is perfectly possible to play without investing a single euro in it. But it is also true that its subscription, costing €9.99, allows us to open two extra daily packs, in addition to a cosmetic battle pass.

Pokémon TCG Pocket is not just about collecting: it’s also about playing

On the other hand, Pokémon TCG Pocket also offers the possibility to play the Pokémon card game. Although it is a simplified version of it. Playing with only three trophies and 20 cards, it is an easier version of the physical game. This will help many people who might initially be interested only in the card collecting aspect to get into the game. Especially because of how it associates part of the game’s rewards with the game matches.

Pokémon TCG Pocket is available for Android through the Play Store and on iOS through the App Store. And as we know, new card collections will arrive in the game early next year – something that will undoubtedly help to continue increasing its already spectacular figures.

The King of Fighters AFK promises us two things we love: a mobile RPG and the characters from The King of Fighters

Fighting games and mobile devices don’t get along too well. With the proliferation of controllers and other peripherals that make playing on your mobile no different from doing so on consoles, this might be different, but that’s not the case with the average player. Most people continue to play without any kind of added device. That’s why fighting games on mobile never really take off, and their developers look for alternative ways to approach such an enticing market. This has been the case with SNK. Aware […]

Fighting games and mobile devices don’t get along too well. With the proliferation of controllers and other peripherals that make playing on your mobile no different from doing it on consoles, this might be different, but that’s not what happens with the average player. Most people still play without any added devices. That’s why fighting games on mobile never really take off, and their developers look for alternative ways to approach such an enticing market.

This has been the case with SNK. Aware that The King of Fighters is too complex for the possible controls on a mobile, they have decided to create a mobile game that works better with the idiosyncrasies of the same. Something that has led them to make The King of Fighters AFK. A very interesting twist not only to the KOF formula but also to RPGs.

Announced during the last Tokyo Game Show and developed by Netmarble, The King of Fighters AFK is an RPG that, as its name suggests, does not require you to be playing for your characters to continue leveling up. Even while you are not playing, the characters you have active will continue to accumulate experience, making the mere passage of time cause your characters to become stronger over time. However, that will not be enough to win.

With a pixel-art aesthetic inspired by The King of Fighters R-2 and Neo Geo Pocket Colour games in general, this is a game that revolves around 5 vs. 5 battles and deck building. So, even if your characters improve without you having to interact with them, you will still need to know how to play to make the most of those juicy levels you’ve achieved while doing other things.

Registration for The King of Fighters AFK is now available on both Android via Google Play and iOS through the App Store. If you register now, you will also receive 3,000 summoning opportunities, offering you a generous amount of gacha spins that will make it much more likely for you to get the powerful character you so desire. Or the character you’ve been playing for so many years that cannot be missing from your squad.

Nintendo will continue not to release its music on Spotify, but it will let you listen to it on its new app

Nintendo has never gotten along very well with streaming platforms. All the technology of the last ten years is practically arcane to the Japanese company. And they make it noticeable at every step. That is why, where most companies in the industry have their place on services like Spotify or Apple Music, Nintendo does not. They lack interest in putting their music anywhere they lack control over it. Something they have demonstrated with the latest addition to the Nintendo Switch Online catalog. Because yesterday, Wednesday, October 30, Nintendo unveiled Nintendo Music. […]

Nintendo has never gotten along very well with streaming platforms. All the technology of the last ten years is practically arcane for the Japanese company. And they make it noticeable at every step. That is why where most companies in the industry have their place on services like Spotify or Apple Music, Nintendo does not. They lack interest in putting their music anywhere they lack control over it. Something they have demonstrated with the latest addition to the Nintendo Switch Online catalog.

Because yesterday, Wednesday, October 30, Nintendo unveiled Nintendo Music. An app for mobile devices that will allow us to listen to and download music from Nintendo’s vast library of soundtracks. However, this is only available to Nintendo Switch Online members. Because its catalog is exclusively closed to those who have a subscription to their online service.

Although the fact that it can only be used on mobile devices is the weakest point of this app, the reality is that it is a very well-crafted application. Based on Spotify’s design, it has a very familiar and intuitive layout, with a notable curation effort where it’s easy to always have something to listen to. With a huge catalog to choose from, perhaps the most interesting aspect is how it doesn’t limit us when creating our own playlists and how it offers us the possibility to loop certain songs for specific periods, with a limit of up to sixty minutes.

Being able to navigate the app with curated lists based on series, characters, or even simply on how you feel, is an excellent way to listen to Nintendo’s music. Even if the need to enter a separate app to listen to their soundtracks is not the most convenient way to do it.

Nintendo Music is now available worldwide on both Android via Google Play and iOS through the App Store. As a reminder, you will need to be a Nintendo Switch Online member to use this app and enjoy Nintendo’s cheerful tunes. And in case there was any doubt, yes. We confirm that we wrote this news while listening to the Wii Shop Channel music on a 60-minute loop.

Although it seems it won’t last much longer.

Nintendo has announced that the game will return before the end of the year under the name Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp Complete. Removing all in-game purchases, the game will include all the items and events that were added throughout the game’s seven-year lifespan. All for a price of $9.99, at least if you’re quick. Because this offer will last until January 31, 2025, when its price will officially rise to $19.99.

NBA 2K Mobile Season 7 arrives with some of the biggest updates in the game's history

When it comes to basketball, there is no game that can compete with NBA 2K. Especially in the world of mobile devices.

When it comes to basketball, there is no game that can compete with NBA 2K. Especially in the world of mobile devices. Even if 2K is not at its best and its glory days are behind, having to prove that they can still create masterpieces, no one dares to compete with them. And from 2K, for once, they have decided to show that they still have that energy within them.

NBA 2K Mobile Season 7 arrives with a series of new features that show the game is more alive than ever. With Shai Gilgeous-Alexander from the Oklahoma City Thunder as its cover athlete, this new season brings new animations, modes, and challenges, along with an experience that aims to be more immersive and realistic than ever.

What will attract the most attention is the Rewind Mode. A daily challenge based on real NBA games. We also cannot overlook Top Plays, with which we can recreate some of the best and most spectacular moments from the previous night’s games, if we have the skill to achieve it. And with Replays, we can put ourselves in the shoes of the winning team, or even the losing team if we want to rewrite the history that just happened. All this to earn rewards and climb a daily leaderboard where only the best in the world will shine.

In addition to that, this season adds improvements to some of the most controversial aspects of the game. For example, the lack of customization options for how we want to approach plays. From now on, we can focus the game control on a single player, or exclusively on offense or defense, if that’s what we want. This way, we can enjoy the part of the game we like the most or even improve the aspects we can still enhance.

If all this doesn’t seem enough to you, a greater emphasis on PvP, being able to challenge your friends in all kinds of matches and tournaments, is the icing on the cake of this seventh season that you can enjoy right now. And if you don’t have NBA 2K Mobile, you just need to know that it is available on both Android on Google Play and iOS on the App Store.
