The Best Group Video Call Apps In 2022

As popular as it is, FaceTime is surprisingly limited. It has few sharing and collaboration tools, which include screen sharing, watching movies, and listening to music together using SharePlay, but won’t let you work together on a document or presentation. You also can’t record the call (though to be fair, many video chat apps don’t allow recording). Finally, FaceTime is Apple device-only, so while those running iOS 15 or later can invite Android-using friends to calls in progress, Windows users can’t get in on these conversations at all....

The Elder Scrolls V Skyrim Main Quest Walkthrough

This guide will cover the main questline only, so the huge amount of sidequests you’ll run into along your journey in Skyrim won’t be listed here. Of the main quest, there are really two threads that somewhat intertwine. The first thread, which will be covered in this guide and is the focal point of the main quest is the return of Dragons to Skyrim and your ascension as Dragonborn. There is also the Skyrim Civil War storyline which we feel is secondary to the return of the dragons, as such we’ll only be covering that thread in as it overlaps with the return of the dragons storyline....

The Future Of Wear Os Is Bright Experts Say

Android smartwatches have seen their share of ups and downs. Despite Google offering a basic operating system, many companies started to branch out, including Samsung, creating their own versions of the OS, which offered better features and battery life than Google’s version. Unfortunately, this means the Android smartwatch market became extremely fragmented, making it hard for consumers to find apps or even watches that worked seamlessly with their devices. Now that Google and Samsung are working together, experts say the future of Wear OS never has been as bright as it is right now....

The Ipad Mini Would Make A Great Phablet

Unlike some Android tablets, which are pretty much just big phones, the iPad has some curious limitations that stop you from using it as a full-on iPhone replacement. It can’t make regular phone calls or receive SMS messages. It has no Wallet app, and it can’t pair with an Apple Watch. You can kind of work around some of these limits, but it’s such a shame that Apple doesn’t make it possible to go solo with the iPad....

The Sad State Of Iphone Gaming

Despite its phenomenal computing power, gaming on the iPhone is mostly about quick-fix games and gambling apps that trick children into spending their parents’ money via in-app purchases. That’s partly down to Apple’s relationships with gaming companies and partly because the touch screen is a pretty bad way to control sophisticated games. But Sony seems to think otherwise. It has just released a hardware controller for the iPhone. “Apple has shown basically no interest in games, despite its focus on entertainment and games being one of the few growing areas of the entertainment industry,” iOS app developer and Apple-watching journalist Graham Bower told Lifewire via email....

Tips To Minecraft Survival The Beginning

Torches There’s no worse feeling in “Minecraft” than being trapped in the dark. At all.

True Tales Of Extreme Smartphone Survival

Take the case of the iPhone 11 Pro that recently was found working after spending 30 days sunken in a frozen Canadian lake. Angie Carriere was ice fishing in Saskatchewan when she accidentally dropped her iPhone 11 Pro into the lake. It wound up working fine after being retrieved and charged. Experts say phone survival is a combination of luck and design. “It’s common to think cold and heat can play a factor in conditions, but the tolerances for electronics in those fields are so high, the major danger is the [permeable] nature of the chassis of the device,” Derek Whitaker, marketing manager at rugged device maker Estone Technology, said in an email interview....

What Experts Think About Disney Plus Censoring Kids Content

Kids’ profiles on the streaming platform no longer show films that feature an advisory message on racism. Some of these movies include Peter Pan, The Aristocats, Lady and the Tramp, and Dumbo, which have to be watched with parental approval. Experts say this is a good move on Disney’s part to make content containing racial stereotypes less accessible to watch. “Disney is finally doing something [it] should have done many years ago: admitting racial prejudices and stereotyping,” wrote Jamil Aziz, the team lead of digital marketing at Streaming Digitally, to Lifewire in an email....
