switch Android profiles based upon time to automatically toggle between office and home sound profiles. The app works great as long as we are punctual but what if we have to devote extra time at office? The app will toggle the profile to home based upon the time and fail in its purpose. After using the app, I realized that time alone cannot be reliable factor to change profiles automatically....

Until now we were dependent on third party options like Pastebot from the excellent developers at Tapbots. But then they started focusing on apps like Tweetbot and Pastebot just faded away, from the development cycle and from users’ minds. In Android, we have a lot of options but Mac and iOS users are left out on the fun. Most of them just iMessage it to themselves or use apps like iA Writer with iCloud support to write things they want to share from one device to another....

The online world is great, but the problem is that rest of the world has not been able to progress at the same rate as we have in the last two decades. The barriers between countries, culture, languages, units etc still stand. And dealing with them is more annoying than ever. My dad knows how to convert Fahrenheit to Celsius off the top of his head. I on the other hand ask Google or Siri or even Cortana to do that for me....

Or, are the differences too negligible to be noticeable? Well, that’s what we’ll explore as we dive deep into the technicalities between Dolby TrueHD and DTS Master Audio.

This behavior can also be seen in iTunes. As you can see below, I have selected the Album view and the songs aren’t grouped together in the 2012 Grammy Nominees album. When and Why Does This Occur? This usually occurs when the artists are different, like in the Grammy album that I bought. All artists were different and hence the songs were showing as different too. Another reason could be the lack of Album Artist, which ideally should be attached to every song in iTunes....
This instant camera is the successor to the popular Instax Square SQ6. Like its counterpart, it’s film-based and packs an attractive square body.

However, doing the job manually kills the fun, especially when you have hundreds of contacts you wish to assign respective display pictures to. So today we are going to look at making this process hassle-free. We need the pictures from somewhere and what better than pulling them from social networks like Facebook, WhatsApp et al?...
Google has redesigned most of its own popular apps explicitly for Android Go. Known as Go apps, these are the toned-down variants of the original apps. Some of the Go apps are Google Go, Gmail Go, YouTube Go, Files Go, Maps Go, and Assistant Go. While they come pre-installed on Android Go devices, you can install them from the Play Store too on any device. These apps are quite helpful on phones with low memory and in areas with poor internet connectivity....
One reason why these apps took off is the diversity of regions and news covered, and the ability to filter them to one’s liking. I mostly read about tech, personal finance, health, and fast cars. Other people have other needs. Download Google News for iOS Download Google News for Android Download Apple News With that thought in mind, let’s begin. Interface Matters A thoughtlessly designed app can ruin otherwise a perfectly good experience....
It’s Not Spying, It’s Tracking The scary sounding stories made it out to be that Windows 10 could access all your local files and was tracking accessing your other personal data. Both of those stories were attributed to misquoted or misattributed quotes from Microsoft’s privacy policies. The quote, first pointed out by Rock Paper Shotgun was as below. The scariest part was “files in private folders”. WHAT? Microsoft has access to my personal files?...
Ransomware is a form of malware that encrypts media, document and other files on the target device and access to those files is only granted once the attacker’s ransom demands are met.

Although early cases of ransomware date back to 2005, its threat on smartphones is quite recent....
Any which ways, most of us don’t care what Google’s servers have on us — because let’s face it, we aren’t a threat to any government organisation that ‘could’ be using that information. But by force of nature, I’m a bit sceptic about Google or anyone else for that matter of fact tracking and storing information about my whereabouts or saving my voice searches. I’m not paranoid, absolutely not. It’s just that I love my privacy and don’t feel the need to share my life with Google — we all have friends for that....

toolbars and ribbons . Now, why do you think they have done so? The simplest reason is that it enables users to work more comfortably with the mouse and perform activities quickly.
