Federico Viticci releases Apple Frames 4, cutting his screenshot-framing shortcut from over 800 to 300 steps with support for latest Apple devices, colored bezels, variants like iPhone 16 Pro or 17 Pro, proportional scaling, and a new Mac Terminal CLI. This boosts speed, reliability, and workflows for developers and marketers.

Federico Viticci at MacStories released Apple Frames 4, a major update to his shortcut that frames screenshots with official Apple product bezels.

Viticci describes the update as a complete rethinking that makes the shortcut noticeably faster, with support for all the latest Apple devices and more personalization options. He trimmed the complex shortcut from over 800 steps to around 300, improving speed and reliability through intelligent logic that adapts to Apple's growing ecosystem of screen sizes and resolutions.

New features include support for all colored bezels officially offered by Apple, customizable per device and orientation. The update adds device variants, such as choosing between iPhone 16 Pro or iPhone 17 Pro frames, and proportional scaling for merging screenshots from different devices like iPhone 17 Pro Max and iPad Pro, respecting physical proportions.

Viticci also built a command-line interface for Terminal on Mac to frame screenshots, aimed at developers and marketers. The CLI adopts an agent-first mindset and includes a skill for agentic app development workflows using tools like Claude or Codex.

Apple raises prices $100 across every remaining previous-generation iPhone

Apple has raised prices by $100 on the iPhone 16, full iPhone 17 lineup and iPhone Air immediately after unveiling the iPhone Duo and iPhone 18 Pro, according to tipster reports. The move means an affordable iPhone now costs more than it did yesterday.

Apple Launches Its C2 Cellular Modem Alongside iPhone Duo

Apple introduced the C2 modem with the iPhone Duo announcement, promising up to 50% faster uploads, 15% lower power consumption, and mmWave support in the US. Fully integrated with the A20 Pro and iOS 27, the platform uses AI algorithms to strengthen connection reliability in weak signal areas.

Windows 10 1607 DHCP Server Hit by CVSS 8.0 Vulnerability

Microsoft disclosed CVE-2026-69412, an 8.0-rated stack-based buffer overflow in Windows DHCP Server that lets an authenticated attacker execute code over an adjacent network, affecting Windows 10 1607. Patches are available while exploitation remains unlikely with no known attacks reported.
