It’s the new UI that’s the most interesting feature to me. And it’s for all the platforms. Even the drop-down menu in the Chrome extension was revamped. And it’s clear why. It might not sound like much, but Pushbullet just went from a service that lets you send stuff between your devices and occasionally your friends to being a messaging service. The Android app is now divided into three sections: Friends, Me, and Following....

Yes, we said ‘Lamborghini’ and we did not mean a car. For, the 88 Tauri is actually a phone that has been inspired by Lamborghini’s famous car lines. We have seen geekdom and autodom collide in the past – there was a Ferrari edition of the Moto Razr 2, and Lamborghini also had a tie-up with Asus for some devices. But most of those endeavours were about a logo here, a flash of colour there and so on....

I know that’s not Android’s thing but I’m sure you’re starting to realize that if you want your favorite apps stay around and keep getting better – they need money to survive. And they better get it from you – instead of selling to a shady conglomerate. And I think this is a great time to start buying paid apps. Much like Apple, Google has enabled lower prices for developing countries....

The communication between the Fire TV Cube and the other devices is carried out by multi directional IR blasters. As far as TV is concerned that is controlled by the HDMI cable.

The leaked images reveal the external design of the alleged Apple iPhone 8 in full glory. With that said, there isn’t really any way to judge whether the smartphone indeed rocks the production design of the upcoming iPhone or not. As per the report, the unit showcased is apparently an iPhone mockup by an inconspicuous Chinese hardware manufacturer that has been developed by secretly collecting finalized design schematics from factories manufacturing the upcoming Apple iPhone 8....

Right from its design, which screamed “gaming” at us with its orange accents (https://techpp.com/2018/12/20/asus-rog-phone-design-opinion/), etched patterns on the backside and arrow-shaped camera unit and speakers; to its performance, which spurred by an overclocked Qualcomm Snapdragon 845, 8 GB RAM and a great AMOLED display with 90 MHz refresh rate and excellent sound, was among the best we have seen on any device, the ROG phone was anything but routine and predictable....

The evolution of wireless technologies has made it possible for the IoT to see a rapid growth. Also, the IPv6 huge increase is another catalyst in the development of the Internet of Things. 20 Devices to show how the Internet of Things will be Within eight years, it is expected that various organizations ranging from government to business will create a market of almost $9 trillion which will be constituted from 212 billion “things” making up the global Internet of Things in 2020....

Although at large, both of these token-generation approaches work well and have their share of advantages and disadvantages, app-based 2FA is a more accessible and practical solution for most people since it costs less (or nothing, in some cases) and offers better portability. But having said that, with a ton of 2FA apps available on the App Store and Play Store, finding an app can be a hassle. To simplify this process, we’ve curated a list of the best 2FA apps on Android and iOS to help you find the right 2FA app for your needs....

Therefore, we didn’t even include those kind of apps in our list, so everything that you will find here will help you download torrent files straight on your Android or iOS devices. If you have used a torrent app with your Android device and found it good (since it’s virtually impossible to find one for iPhone/iPad), let us know in the comments section. Some of the best torrent apps for Android devices KickassTorrents The KickassTorrents app is one of the latest torrent apps that have been launched for Android users but it has already managed to gather a loyal fan-base, with many of them probably being users of the kickass....

So to make things simpler for you, here’s our short guide on choosing your next email service for your iPhone. 1. Gmail Google’s very own email service – Gmail – launched way back in 2004, is a definite competitor in the list of email services. Its iOS app offers a clear and easy-to-use interface, with easy access to different options, available at ease. The organization of emails based on different categories is neatly done and managed by the app itself....

Still very hefty in size At their new reduced price, the Shure Aonic 50 sure make for a very compelling deal for anyone looking for a premium pair of ANC headphones. We would even go out and say that if the good wireless sound is your requirement, these are your best option! Yes, they are very big and at over 300 grams, definitely on the heavier side, and they also do not fold into a very compact shape....

Buoyed by the success of SoftBank’s telecom operations, Yahoo Japan and Alibaba, SoftBank went on a buying and investing spree which saw it investing in several companies and in some cases downright acquiring them. Some of SoftBank’s investments include companies like Snapdeal, Ola, and One Web, while its acquisitions included companies like Sprint and ARM. Monopoly or nothing The network effects of being the largest player in a particular segment of technology, coupled with the data that the larger company gets to continuously improve its product/service simply leave very little chance for the number two company to have a meaningful fighting chance....

Having a wifi router at home is very common these days. People prefer to stay connected to the internet via their desktop, laptop, mobile phone or even their multimedia gadget like iPod Touch. That is pretty cool, but the issue is when you forget (or ignore) to set a password for your wireless connection. That would mean, anyone nearby, within the router connectivity area can easily connect to your network and get free access to the internet!...

It may be free and a mere 894 KB download on our Nexus 4 (when was the last time we downloaded a mobile game THAT light?) and a 2.4 MB one on our iPad mini, but we are going to put it on record – Flappy Bird is one of the most difficult and infuriating games we have played. And this, when on the surface, it is shockingly simple – you have to keep tapping the screen to keep a small bird in the air and help it get through a tricky path, between some obstacles, and the further you get, the better your score....

The update takes the Gmail up to version 2.0 and is one of the heftiest the app has received since it arrived on the iTunes App Store some months ago. And that is certainly evident from the size of the app, which has suddenly sprouted to an impressive 15MB. There are a number of changes contained in them thar MBs, though. To start with, the interface (once you have logged in – you will have to) is a whole lot cleaner and you have so much more white space around with fewer pesky lines....
