Apple releases F1 haptic trailer that only works on iPhones: Here's how to watch
At its Worldwide Developer Conference (WWDC) 2025, Apple made multiple references to Formula 1, and now the tech giant has released a new exclusive Haptic Trailer for F1 The Movie, which you can only watch on an iPhone.
The haptic trailer uses the iPhone's Taptic Engine to let people 'feel the action' by simply holding the phone in their palms. When watching the trailer for the upcoming movie, the phone physically vibrates in sync with different scenes like engine revving, roaring, time ticking, crashes, and the seatbelt clicking. This may sound gimmick at first, but it does offer a more immersive experience.
In case you are wondering, this is similar to how you would experience a movie in 4DX, which uses motion-enabled seats in conjunction with atmospheric effects like wind and lightning. Available on iPhones running iOS 18.4 or newer, the Haptic Trailer can be experienced from the Apple TV Plus tab of the built-in TV app.

For those wondering, this is the first movie trailer in the world to offer haptic feedback to enhance the viewing experience. With a budget of around $300 million, the upcoming F1 movie might prove to be Apple's biggest theatrical release yet.
F1 The Movie will be making its debut in India on June 27. Directed by Joseph Kosinski, who also made Top Gun: Maverick, the movie features Brad Pitt as the lead and an audio score by Hans Zimmer. It also features Javier Bardem, Kerry Condon, Tobias Menzies, Sarah Niles, Kim Bodnia, and Samson Kayo.
Following the theatrical release, F1 The Movie will also be available to stream for Apple TV+ subscribers. However, the company is yet to clarify if and when it will be coming to the streaming service.

Brad Pitt flirted with the supermodel extras on the 'F1' set? Here's what we know
Brad Pitt , the 'F1' star, was all over the supermodel extras on the set of the film, despite being in an alleged serious relationship with Ines de Ramon. The insiders claim the 61-year-old actor was a big flirt, and exuded his charm even if he wore a helmet or was behind the mask. Brad Pitt was a kid in a candy store... According to Radar Online, Brad Pitt decided to lean into the glamour of the Formula 1 world, which certainly translated in the movie. 'It also gave Brad plenty of opportunities to flirt up a storm between takes, even if he was in his racing helmet or behind a mask,' the insider added. While the actor didn't advance his gestures (at least not that anyone's aware), Brad behaved like a kid in the candy store. 'Brad has always been a big flirt; he can't help himself,' the report noted. Pitt enjoyed the attention he received from the crew, as he was the biggest star on the film, and made sure that they showered him with compliments. The flirt in the question was about the small talk he had, including how beautiful they looked, and him asking about grabbing a lunch or a coffee. Brad Pitt and Ines de Ramon Meanwhile, Brad Pitt has been dating Ines de Ramon for more than two years, and while there haven't been any definitive plans about saying 'I do' after walking down the aisle, she is said to be expecting a sparkling ring on her finger sooner rather than later. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 임플란트 29만원 이벤트 임플란트 더 알아보기 Undo 'It certainly wasn't the type of behaviour you'd expect to see from someone with a serious girlfriend. But Brad is very much his own man, and he's always been this way,' the source said, adding that the previous partners also had complaints about his flirting. 'If Ines wants to stay with Brad and build a future with him, this is something she'll have to live with, because ultimately, Brad's not going to change his ways for anybody,' the report concluded.

Swiss Military Mortley Rumble can bring life to you workstation
Swiss Military is a trusted brand in most markets around the world. To capitalise on this, the brand is expanding its product portfolio to include everything from travel essentials to speakers. The Swiss Military Mortley Rumble is a new speaker that tries to offer everything a user might need at an affordable price range. The Swiss Military Mortley Rumble has a unique design with a phone holder that reminds one of the early streaming devices that came for the iPhone over a decade back. The design of the 24W Bluetooth speaker has a control unit in the middle flanked by speakers. On the back of this control unit is a power button, USB-A and USB-C ports, an SD card reader, and an Aux-in port. The USB-C port is used to charge the device too. On top of this block are the Play/Pause and Forward buttons. There is no volume control on the device and one is expected to do that directly from the phone. While the design is interesting, with woofers at the back that actually move, the build quality did not inspire much confidence in me. The buttons on top are a bit too clicky, and everything cries white-labeled Shenzen production lines. The audio playback however is much better than what the design will have you expect. The audio profile is balanced and the playback is sharp. Playing O Re Piya, which is a perfect Sunday morning song on the Mortley Rumble, I realised that this is more of a personal listening device than a speaker that will fill your room with Rahat Fateh Ali Khan's mystical vocals. The speaker clearly has limitations when it comes to its top volumes. But keep it on your desk and you will have an immersive experience with your favourite tracks. To the speaker's credit is the fact that there is no noise even at the top volumes. With Jonita Gandhi's Vaseegara mashup, I loved the bass on these speakers. The taps sounded so real and vibrated across the table. There is space for the different channels and vocals don't struggle to come out of the shadows of the instruments. If only there was more volume to amp up this experience. The speakers are good for taking calls too and it helps that there is a flap up front that can hold your smartphone in place. Again an indicator that this is better as a desktop speaker. On a full charge, I could get about eight hours of playback, which is decent. However, a lot of smaller speakers these days push over 30 hours of playtime. At Rs 8,990, the Swiss Military Mortley Rumble could have done a bit more in terms of volume and battery power. But overall this is not a bad package and can be a good addition to your workspace. Nandagopal Rajan writes on technology, gadgets and everything related.
