The app is easy to use and we have already seen a few tips that help you get started, however, for the first few days I used the app, there were a few things that I was not happy about.

Before we proceed, I want to clarify that Google regularly releases Android Security update patches for most smartphones. Those patches safeguard your phones from most nefarious vulnerabilities. However, what if your phone maker is yet to release that update? What if your phone behaves randomly? Well, that’s what we are going to answer in this post today. So, without further ado, let’s get started. What Are Viruses and Should You Be Worried The PC user in you must already know that computers often face virus attacks....

Zoom is traditionally a video conferencing service supporting up to 1000 participants. It comes with additional features such as Breakout rooms, schedule meetings, whiteboard, etc. Screen sharing is another capability of Zoom.

Can Zoom Host See What I’m Doing In a Zoom meeting, the host of the video call and the meeting participants have the screen sharing function, provided the host has enabled it for all....

But this is Windows. It added a “Modern UI” start screen with a gorgeous interface and smooth transitions and all it’s really used for is adding even more bloatware. So although maybe not as much as before, Windows does still need cleaning up. Like an unruly teenager, it simply won’t tidy up its own mess. If you search on the internet for the best cleaning/maintenance tools, CCleaner will show up at the top, with Glary Utilities trailing not far behind....

According to the researchers, malicious apps have the capability to exploit two permissions on the Play Store — the ‘draw on top’ and ‘accessibility service’. Users might be attacked using either one of these vulnerabilities or both of them. The attacker can clickjack, record keystrokes, steal security PIN of the device, insert adware into the device and also steam two-factor authentication tokens. “Cloak & Dagger is a new class of potential attacks affecting Android devices....

The problem – nearly every commercial DVD in the market comes armed with copy protection or region encoding (or restrictions). Copy protection is like encryption which prevents unauthorized use or duplication. It may be a barrier against piracy, but it prevents us from doing simple things like backing up our DVD collection. There are many ways a DVD is copy-protected during manufacturing. BDlot DVD ISO Master is a very promising freeware that can remove both DVD region codes and other DVD protections like CSS, CPRM, CPPM, APS, UOPs, ARccOS, Rip-Guard, and Disney X protection....

Another new pair of earphones is the Outlier Air from none other than Creative. The crux of this audio accessory is its battery life of 30 hours. Plus, they are the company’s first truly wireless earphones, and needless to say, these are also water-resistant sporting a rating of IPX5. All the common features aside, one of the remarkable things about the Creative Outlier Air is the sweet price of $79....

Apart from displaying the time and date, it shows certain icons that help you quickly see the status of a running program. It also shows important notifications in the form of small text bubbles that pop up in case your action is required immediately. The notification area in Windows 7 underwent a major overhaul in terms of design and usability. The user was given more freedom to choose the icons, as well as the notifications, that get displayed in that area....

Real creative. When you turned on your laptop after a fresh Windows 8 install, you were greeted by the beautiful Metro tile based UI – the Start screen. The screen was filled with apps, tiles, that had pictures of people you didn’t even know, telling you the news, sports scores and where to travel next. Pretty? Yes. Useful? No. At first, we were fooled by the appearance. Oh, the Bing app looks so cool with the ever changing background and the sharp typography....

online reading then you must have tried ways to make the experience better. It is obvious that the browser – as it comes from the factory – does not help you a lot. You have to tweak it, add more tools (read add-ons) and use certain web services to comply with your requisites. How would it be to acquaint yourself with a tool that caters to multiple needs and converges all the browsing (more specifically, reading) add-ons under a single umbrella?...

Today we’ll talk about an extension that takes this floating window/picture-in-picture behavior to a whole new level. Panel Tabs is an extension that lets you open web pages in little panels that are docked to the bottom of the screen. Yes, screen.

What is DebridMax DebridMax is a downloader that allows you to download files instantly and at the best of your Internet speed....

Those file managers differ depending on the make and model of the phone and leave a lot to be desired. The ES File Explorer has been the poster child of the file manager apps for a while until Google Files Go launched. Since then, the game has changed. What makes Google Files Go so popular? Does it have what it takes to beat a veteran like ES File Explorer? Let’s find out....

That uncertainty is the reason why you need to get serious about your privacy. Of course, most browsers do offer the functionality to search in private mode. Sadly, they are more focused on the offline privacy aspects rather than stopping trackers from recording your browsing behavior. Thankfully, that’s where Firefox Focus and DuckDuckGo Privacy Browser come into the picture. Not only do both mobile browsers offer a completely private browsing experience right out-of-the-box, but they also try to prevent websites from tracking you all the time....

My first choice was Google Podcasts because I thought it would play nicely with Assistant, also owned by Google. My peers then recommended me Pocket Casts, saying it is far better for discovering and organizing podcasts. Let’s see whether Pocket Casts is indeed better at handling podcasts than Google Podcasts. And if it is, what else does it offer? Let’s find out. 1. UI and Experience The material design theme that Google adopted for so many apps is visible on full display in Podcasts....
