Apple's renewed fight against AIDS includes new iPhone cases
Apple has made a tradition of marking World AIDS Day with a campaign to donate to the Product (RED) charity, and it's going the extra mile for its 10th year of support. On top of the company's existing (RED) gear (which sends a contribution to the Global Fund's fight against AIDS), it's launching four new accessories and devices that count toward the charity. You can get red versions of the iPhone 7 Battery Case, the leather iPhone SE case, Beats Solo 3 Wireless headphones and the Beats Pill+ wireless speaker. All of these are available today, and there are other ways to help out even if you have no intentions of buying hardware.
Apple's latest Android app gives you control of the Beats Pill+
When the new Beats speaker, its first since joining Apple, was announced earlier this month, the companion app and its added features were only ready for iOS. Now that the Pill+ is on sale, Beats released an Android version of the software, too. This marks Apple's second Android app, following the Move to iOS tool that arrived in September to help you switch to an iPhone. If you're in need of a refresher, the Pill+ app provides a DJ mode that'll let more than one person control the tunes and allows you to pair two of the speakers for a bigger sound. The software is available from Google Play now, so if you already made the purchase, or are waiting for yours to be delivered, you can download the app on your Android handset or slate to make the most of it. And Apple Music should arrive for Google's mobile OS soon enough to round out the setup.
