We fix what others can't.
When Android 6.0 landed, it brought a big new battery-saving feature called Doze mode. While it was great at reining in known troublemakers like social network apps and misbehaving games, Doze had a bad habit of knocking out apps with genuinely important roles to play. One such app was Android Wear. Today, a new update […]
Google Photos already has some “smart” features that try to make your photos easier to manage, and today it’s getting another one. Google is rolling out “smarter albums” to the app. From now on, when you take pictures while on a trip or attending an event, Google Photos will automatically assemble your best shots into […]
Welcome to the roundup of the best new Android applications, games, and live wallpapers that went live in the Play Store or were spotted by us in the previous 2 weeks or so. Please wait for this page to load in full in order to see the widgets, which include ratings and pricing info. Looking […]
Vizio’s P-Series 4K TVs* are about to get infinitely more Google-y. The new second generation models (P-Series Ultra HD HDR Home Theater Display is the full name, but we’ll gloss over that) come with Google Cast built-in, meaning a Chromecast or Cast-enabled set-top box isn’t needed in order to cast over content. There are four of them, […]
The LG G5 comes into 2016 the unabashed underdog to Samsung’s Galaxy S7 and S7 edge. While Samsung is refining its lineup – based on a largely successful reimagining in the Galaxy S6 and S6 edge+ of last year – with more practical benefits this time around (better camera, much better battery life), LG’s smartphone […]
If you pay for cable, you probably pay for ESPN. Disney’s sports empire is practical inescapable, especially if you watch college sports, and it’s essentially impossible to pay for conventional television without getting ESPN thrown into the package, whether you want it or not. So if you’re paying for it, you might as well get […]
The Turing phone, advertised as “unhackable,” looks and sounds like a handset that would never see the light of day. Call it a work of science fiction, a fanboy’s wet dream of a device materialized out of Robotech. But prototypes exist and pre-orders have gone live. Thing is, that promised shipment date of December 18th […]
Ready to hit the slopes and fall down a lot? Then I have good news—Snowboard Party 2 from Ratrod Studios is now available on Android. The first Snowboard Party was hugely popular, and this one looks like an upgraded version that kept all the good parts of the original. Although, it also kept the in-app purchases. […]
It’s easy to laugh at Yahoo. Other tech brands like Google, Amazon, Apple, and Microsoft have grown in prominence over the last ten years. But rather than improve, Yahoo has mostly just continued. It’s still a giant presence. Millions of people use its services. It just doesn’t grab headlines like the competition. Well, Yahoo has […]
Before YouTube Red launched at the end of October, a number of folks signed up to take part in the YouTube Music Key beta. Starting last week, a number of them have been getting hit by a particularly frustrating bug. They’ve been switched to YouTube Red, but they’ve lost access to their Google Play Music […]
If you saw our post about last month’s update to Maps, you may remember a teardown showed hotels would soon gain listings for amenities. Google didn’t keep us waiting for long; amenities can now be viewed on many hotel listings and in search results. As usual, we’ve got the download links below if you don’t […]
Update 1: 2015/12/02 7:25am PST The Force awakens on December 18th, but the Force of Disney’s marketing has awakened long before that. We’re already being bombarded with Star Wars figurines and collectibles and toys and miscellaneous items in every online or retail store we visit. And here’s one more thing you want to add to your list of coveted […]
