Now that Apple is taking more cues from Android—the addition of a customizable home screen and a few other features coming to iOS 18 have been available in Android for years now—it’s time for the company to look at other features it can nick, and I’ve got the perfect one: I’d love to see reverse phone number lookup on iPhone. Spam calls are a huge problem in this day and age, and being able to look up phone numbers quickly and easily is a huge boon. This is something Google is leaning heavily into with a newly released feature on the Pixel 8, Pixel 8 Pro, and Pixel 8a. I know we’re only into the first beta for iOS 18, and we’ve already seen some big reveals of what to expect. All of the AI features coming with Apple Intelligence are exciting. But I can’t help but hope Apple is already taking notes about what features it should start working on in future iOS updates, and I think reverse phone number lookup on the iPhone would be a great option. Google added reverse phone number lookup to the Pixel 8's recent call log. Image source: Google It’s really easy to see just how useful this feature could be. Yeah, we already have the option to silence spam calls—a huge boon that I take advantage of daily. But, being able to go back and look up those phone numbers and make sure we aren’t missing an important call right from our recent calls? That would be a game-changer. I get it; putting reverse phone number lookup on iPhone is probably a bit more work than ripping off that cute little Pixel 8 snapshot feature I talked about a couple of weeks ago. Still, if Apple wants to keep building on the features that will be useful for users without solely relying on AI to do that, this feature seems like a good direction to go. Of course, there are a thousand other little minute features I could list here, and I’m sure we’ll all end up talking about those at some point. I'm sure I could probably make a shortcut to do something similar to this, but that isn't a solution that will easily be available to everyone. So, for now, I can’t help but look a bit enviously at the Pixel 8 Pro collecting dust in my review drawer and wish I could take advantage of some of those newer features on my iPhone, too. But maybe I'm just being greedy.

Jerry Seinfeld’s youngest child, Shepherd Kellen Seinfeld recently graduated high school, with family present to celebrate him. His mom, Jessica Seinfeld shared photos from the event on her Instagram, featuring herself, Jerry, and the other kids Sascha and Julian surrounding Shepherd. The group snap sparked reactions among Jessica’s followers, not for the heartwarming occasion, but because Shepherd held a lit cigar in one hand. Many called out Jerry and Jessica for condoning such freedom, while a few thought lightly of it and cheered the teen on. Reactions to the Seinfelds’ family picture Instagram Jessica accompanied the controversial shot with more slides showing a flip phone, a minimalist phone, and a black-and-white photo of Shepherd alone. Her caption explained that Shepherd got a flip phone for graduation in hopes that he would turn in his current smartphone. She added that Shepherd got his first device at 12, and in retrospect, she should have waited two more years.

Someone defended the young boy, noting that it was simply “a celebratory act invented by the great Celtics coach Red Auerbach.” Instagram Meet the Seinfeld kids Jerry and Jessica welcomed Shepherd in August 2005, and though they mostly kept him off the public eye, he has been spotted on a few special outings, such as Jessica’s GOOD+ Foundation charity event at New York City’s Central Park in 2017. Unlike his older sister, Sascha, he is not on social media and seems to prefer his private lifestyle. Instagram Being Jerry’s son means having an understanding father, as the iconic actor previously revealed his parenting style to be “cool.” He expressed his determination to not be a disapproving father by indulging his kids’ interests, which appears to have worked out fine so far. Sascha is a graduate of Duke University, while Julian is set to earn his bachelor’s degree in Sociology from the same institution soon.
