Evernote now supports iOS 13's dark mode setting

Evernote already has Dark Mode built-in, but now the app supports iOS 13's system-wide Dark theme toggle. What this means is if you set your iPhone to the Dark theme (dark mode everywhere!), then Evernote will follow suit. When you open the app, it'll have a black background. 

The update for the cloud-based, note-taking app is now available from the App Store for the iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch (if necessity really calls for it).

Apple Store now sells Xbox One controllers

With Apple Arcade’s recent launch and Apple adding gamepad support for its products, it makes sense that the company is now selling Xbox One controller online for $74.95. We can’t say why it fetches a higher price than it does on Microsoft’s online store, where Microsoft charges $64.99 for it. We aren’t sure as well whether we’d see the accessory in-store, but we’ll let you know if it does show up. If you’re not sure how to pair an Xbox One wireless controller with your Apple device, the video above shows you how to do just that.

Google Maps' Voice Guidance feature helps people with impaired vision

Just in time for World Sight Day, Google introduces more detailed spoken directions into Google Maps. The feature was developed to help people with visual impairments by providing them with alerts as they navigate their route to their destination. The app now has more detailed voice guidance and new kinds of verbal announcements for walking trips. So Google Maps can inform users when they need to turn or let them know when a big intersection is coming up. When they move away from their route, they will be notified by the app, and it'll re-route them.

The feature is rolling out first to the United States (in English) and to Japan (in Japanese), but according to Google, it'll support additional languages and countries soon. To access the feature, head to Google Maps' settings and select Navigation. From there, scroll to the bottom of the list and locate Walking options. You will see the Detailed voice guidance option there.

Apple adds one more original feature film into its Apple TV+ catalogue. The company picked up a reimagining of Charles Dicken's A Christmas Carol with Will Ferrell and Reynolds. The movie doesn't have a title yet, or what roles Ferrell and Reynolds will play. But the film will be directed by Sean Anders and John Morris, who worked with Ferrell on the Daddy's Home films.

Multiple studios were said to be bidding for the film, but Apple reportedly got rights to the movie because it "moved aggressively as it seeks to make an impact in the original features space."
