With the announcement of the Nexus 6 and Nexus 9, Google also announced the release of their latest version of Android called Android 5.0 “Lollipop”. Just like with the developer preview of Android L (the codename for Android 5.0 before it was finished), if you have a Nexus 5 or […]
After spending a decent amount of time with the new iPhone 6 and iOS 8, I figured there were a few little tips and tricks that I learned that might be of use to someone else new to the latest iteration of Apple’s operating system. So here are 21 of
Finally got my Moto 360 and figured I should stick with the tradition of YouTube and do an unboxing of it for anyone curious as to what comes in the box and what initial impact the device has when you first hold it in your hand. Here’s a quick video
Better late than never. Figured there are a lot of people out there who didn’t get an iPhone 6 still (or are waiting for it to arrive from their pre-order) so thought it might be good to do an unboxing for them. Is it all you dreamed it would be
It seems that changing the keyboard isn’t the only feature to have made its way over to iOS in iOS 8. Widgets are finally here, just not where you might expect them. Unlike Android that has widgets you can place on the home screen, Apple has opted to put them
Lots of people are complaining about the size of the new iPhone 6 and 6 plus. And to some extent at least it makes sense. Its quite a jump in screen size to come from an iPhone 5S or, god forbid, an iPhone 4S to be forced to an iPhone
One of the first things your new iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 Plus will ask you to do when you turn it on (besides beg to be caressed softly) is to setup Touch ID, aka the fingerprint scanner, and with good reason. Setting that up (or at least a PIN)
FINALLY. So with the coming of iOS 8, the iPhone 6, and iPhone 6 Plus, Apple, in a slightly unexpected move, has allowed third-party developers to build alternative keyboards for iOS. I can just picture someone at Apple huddled in the corner of the office rocking back and forth because
Sometimes typing and emoticons just don’t quite cut it (and a phone call is wayyyy too much commitment, let’s be real) so what are you to do? Well, in iOS 8, you have a third option –audio messages. Now, next to the text field when typing to someone else with iMessage enabled,
A neat little feature Apple added into iOS 8 is the ability to actually interact with notifications, instead of just tapping them to open the corresponding app. You could always swipe up on a notification to dismiss it, but now you can swipe down to actually take action on it
Oh, gifs. What would the internet be without you? Showing us how someone epic-ly failed over and over, or how a squirrel has better acting chops than the entire cast of certain movies; they’re just an inherent part of the web like social networks and cats. So when you download
With iOS 8 just around the corner, maybe you’re feeling like iOS is just slipping away from you. The new flat and transparent styling is just too new age for you and you miss the good old days of gradients and layers. Well, if you’re jailbroken, there are still a
Here we have another part of my series on getting the mort out of customizing Android (since it seems a lot of people don’t realize just how much you can change the Android OS). This time I’m going to show you how to change the default music player in Android
Continuing with my new series on getting the most out of customizing Android (since it seems most people don’t realize to the extent you can actually customize an Android device), I’m moving on to something that can change the way you see the world –the camera. Just like with changing
If you just had your phone unlocked, or maybe flashed a custom ROM, you might be having an issue connecting to the internet or sending picture messages. This is sometimes due to the fact that the internet and mms settings (that most phones nowadays set automatically when they detect what
