Welcome, my friend, to the premier source for Apple and tech news! For 19 years, we've been with you every step of the way since the first day of the iPhone, publishing nearly 8,000 tech articles to help us learn together and educate ourselves. Today, we're proud to present the biggest update ever to your favorite app, Phonegram, your ultimate destination for all the latest in the world of Apple and technology.
We have completely rebuilt the app to deliver a brand new, ultra-fast experience that combines rich news content, smart tools, and an interactive community, so you can discover innovative ways to get the most out of your devices.
What's new in this version
The app is now faster and lighter than ever. Try it for yourself: tap on an articleโno loading time, the article appears instantly. Swipe the article back to a modern browsing interface: enjoy reading articles with a smooth vertical scrolling interface (similar to TikTok) and endless scrolling.
The app interface hasn't changed much and is familiar to you. We've just made the app much more modern and simpler. Everything you know about your favorite app is available, such asโฆ news, audio, tools, more, and then search.
If you prefer a traditional way of displaying articles or want to quickly read news headlines, go to search and then click on all articles. You will find the articles in front of you in the simple format you prefer.
Tools
The purpose of these tools is to make your daily life easier and more creative; all tools have been updated to be simpler and easier to useโฆ
Among the distinctive tools:
AI-powered image tools:
Restore and enhance the quality of old photos (AI Restore), upscale photos (AI Upscale), design professional quote cards, and combine elements to produce creative images.
Calligraphy:
Design stunning calligraphic artworks and manuscripts with your name or any text you want using artificial intelligence techniques.
Video tools:
Easily download videos from social media sites, compress their size to save space, or extract audio from any video clip.
Productivity tools:
An advanced document scanner (Doc Scanner) to convert your papers into high-resolution PDF files.
Updated content:
An amazing wallpaper library for your screen, and a constantly updated list of the best Apple Store apps, specially selected for your country.
WhatsApp Quick Tool:
Send a WhatsApp message to any number directly, without needing to save it in your contacts.
Open Tool Shortcuts
You can now open any tool within the application directly and quickly via the Siri voice assistant or the Shortcuts application. Thus, if you use a tool like WhatsApp a lot, you can place a shortcut for it on your device's lock screen, for example.
Apple news and technology at your fingertips
The app not only provides news that you can read, but also smart audio summaries: listen to article summaries via a fully integrated audio player that supports playback speed control, background operation, and queue management for a seamless listening experience.
Phonegram now supports English.
We've long dreamed that the app would support English, not just Arabic, as many people prefer English. And now, thank God, it does. Bilingual support A seamless experience in both Arabic and English, with automatic device language detection and full support for your chosen language.
Changing the language is done from within the application settings on the device, and this is what is followed in modern Apple systems. So if you want to change the language of the application, enter the settings and press Change Language, and it will take you to the iPhone settings for the application so that you can change the language from there.
If you don't see the language option, it means you must enable Arabic on your device. This is essential for apps to function in Arabic on newer Apple systems. It will be the second language option, making your device's primary language. For example, here the device language is set to English, but I have Arabic as the second language.
I was surprised when many people contacted us not knowing that they should add a second language to the device's languages โโfor use in applications. The second language is just a second option, and it means if the application does not support the first language, try with the second language.
๐ Plus Edition (Your support is our fuel)
There's no doubt that Phonegram offers great value to every user. We've been with you since day one of the iPhone. To continue on this journey and deliver the best, we always rely on your support. By subscribing to the Plus version (monthly or annual), you:
- It supports your favorite site and ensures it continues to provide outstanding content.
- Enjoy a faster, more beautiful, and completely ad-free experience.
- It opens up new horizons with exclusive features within the application tools.
- It directly contributes to the development and updating of future features.
We are used to any update taking time for the user to get used to it, and after a while, he starts to adapt to the application to the point that he says how I used to use the old version. This does not only happen with us, but even with Apple systems. With every major update, you find users not wanting to upgrade, but with continuous updates any flaw is fixed and this update is certainly better than any previous version.
