Nvidia launches its replacement app for GeForce Experience

Nvidia has a new app for its PC users. The aptly named Nvidia App replaces the Nvidia GeForce Experience. It launched in beta in 2024 and is bundled with video card drivers and integrates features from the company's Nvidia Control Panel, including configuring your display, tuning the GPU performance, and enabling or disabling G-Sync.

The Nvidia App can record your gameplay, show statistics in an overlay, and place artificial intelligence-powered RTX game filters on. The new app retains the feature that optimizes the game settings based on your PC's specs. The company plans to add more Control Panel app options (like Surround and Multiple Display Mode settings) alongside other enhancements. And you don't need an Nvidia account to use the app.

Apple tipped to enter the smart home security camera market

We might see an Apple smart home security camera market in 2026. At least, that is what analyst Ming-Chi Kuo is reporting. He wrote in a post saying the company targets "annual shipments in the tens of millions." Chinese tech company GoerTek will supposedly be the exclusive assembly supplier.

Kuo said the smart home camera would integrate with other Apple hardware products wirelessly and be part of a larger smart home ecosystem centred around Apple's HomeKit platform. He suggested you can see what's being recorded via the Apple TV or through an iPhone, Apple Watch, and other devices that can interact with the camera. Apple has not made a public statement about the arrival of this camera, but Kuo has a track record of breaking these product launches, so it might be worth keeping an eye on.

Apple teases an 'immersive music experience' from The Weeknd coming to Vision Pro

Apple is introducing a new "immersive music experience" for the Apple Vision Pro headset with Canadian singer The Weeknd. The trailer above teases what you'll expect to see on Thursday, November 15. It will feature his unreleased song, Open Hearts, which he previewed at a concert in Australia last month. If you don't own a Vision Pro, you can watch the experience by requesting a free demo of the headset at Apple Stores where it is available.

Apple reportedly delays rumoured 'lower-budget' Vision Pro

Another Apple product we might not see soon is the more affordable version of the Apple Vision Pro. Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo said in a tweet on Sunday that the mixed-reality headset might be "delayed beyond 2027." The reasons he cited its lackluster mass appeal.

"I think what really drove Apple to delay the cheaper Vision Pro is that simply reducing the price wouldn't help create successful use cases," Kuo wrote. "It's similar to the HomePod situation -- even after launching the cheaper HomePod mini, Apple's smart speakers failed to become mainstream products."
