When it comes to the world of apps, as you might already know, it’s not as rosy as it appears. Some of the apps do their designated work brilliantly, while a few others do a ‘tad‘ more than that. In this era where we often question our privacy and the reach of digitization, it’s only natural that we understand how Android app permissions work and what does it mean to provide them with the data that they request....

And yes, I’m talking about the Apps & Features applet that Microsoft wants us to so badly use. To be honest, I find it a nightmare to deal with, especially when it comes to dealing with dozens of installed applications. The old Add or Remove Programs panel was much easier to use. After digging around, I found the Add or Remove Programs panel still present, albeit hidden. So, let’s see how you can get to it as well....

However, there are always privacy issues to be concerned about, and if your question is of a sensitive nature, then having your name splashed across an answered ask may not bode well. Nor the potential embarrassment of sounding stupid. Fortunately, Tumblr provides the ability to let you perform asks anonymously. And yes, you can do that even on the mobile app. But, there are various criteria that need to be met, so if you’re having any trouble using the feature, you’re also going to find out why....

There are a number of drivers backup utilities available, including both paid and free options. Double Driver is a feature-rich freeware that can help you backup Windows 7 drivers and also restore them, print a list of them and do much more.

But what if you didn’t have to? That’s what Input, a free app from developer Matt Healy LLC sets out to do. Let’s take a look at how much (if at all) they succeed at it. A Different Perspective The basic premise behind Input is using command lines to interact with different services. At its heart, the app integrates with other apps and various web services, which allow it (after you give your consent and sign up of course) to perform actions on your behalf....

Android’s openness is one of the best things about the platform but it can be a double edged sword. Unlike iOS, Android apps have open access to your personal data – including calls, messages, browser history etc. While most apps use this access constructively – to make those functions better, a lot of apps and websites have malicious motives. Update: Since we wrote about Disconnect, the app has changed its pricing policy....

Thankfully, you do not need any third-party apps to block websites on your iPhone or iPad. That’s because the built-in Screen Time controls on iOS 13 and iPadOS are more than sufficient for the job. Let’s put them into action. Blocking Sites Using Screen Time The Screen Time functionality lets you easily block websites using the Web Content restrictions built into it. The feature made a debut with iOS 12....

Earlier, you either needed the Snap Camera or a third-party extension to use virtual backgrounds in Google Meet. Fortunately, that has changed now. Google Meet supports using custom backgrounds along with the ability to blur the background as well. Wondering how to change the background in Google Meet on Android, iPhone, iPad, and computer? Find the answer here. Let’s start with computers first followed by mobile apps. How to Add Virtual Background in Google Meet on PC You can change the background before joining a video or during a video call....

All you need to do is say ‘Okay Google remind me’ followed by what you need to be reminded of along with time or location. Google Assistant will intimate you at the exact time (or place) by sending a notification on your device. However, it uses the default notification sound of your device, which usually is a low tone not meant for important things like reminders. I have missed Google Assistant reminders many times due to this particular reason....

On Windows 10, iCloud Drive doesn’t let you have any say as to where it downloads and syncs your files. It uses the primary partition on your PC by default. So unless you have lots of free disk space to play around with, this poses an obvious issue. Digging through the various iCloud settings won’t help you out either. Well, I tried. But don’t worry. You can ‘trick’ iCloud Drive into using another location in Windows 10....

The main difference between Google Maps and Waze is that the former is data-based, whereas the latter is community-based. It means every member using the Waze app can report information related to traffic conditions, accidents, speed, and police traps, etc, for free to the Waze server. Further, it comes with an online map editor, to update roads, landmarks, house numbers, or even add new buildings. And just like every other navigation app, Waze also comes with a voice-guided driving assistance feature....

While we have to wait for this feature to make its appearance on the stock camera, until then we have to fill the gaps with apps from the Play Store. The app of the hour is Vizmato. It’s a relatively new video editing app which helps in changing video speed on Android easily and quickly. So before we check out how it works, let’s have a quick look at what you can do with your videos using this app....

1. Download and Run MacFUSE First and foremost, you’re going to need to download MacFUSE. This will add a MacFUSE item to your Preferences Pane, and allow you to read/write NTFS files and folders from OS X. It’s very valuable for Boot Camp users. (If you don’t want to reboot to access Windows, try using Virtualbox.) 2.

You can share guides with friends and family, collaborate with others when planning a vacation, or even to create a list of places you like to visit. While there are many apps that help you plan your travels, and the convenience of built-in Apple Maps on iPhone is unbeatable. The Apple Maps Guides feature is very helpful if you like to see where destinations are related to each other. You can find the most convenient route, whereas creating a list of places to see lacks that extra layer of visibility....

However, the Command Prompt doesn’t look that trendy when compared to other Windows 10 application you have on your computer. It’s a boring black screen with white text on it, which is rather small; making it barely readable on a large screen with full HD resolution. But that’s the default view and there are options using which you can customize the looks of the boring Command Prompt and make it look cool....

To trim down your Instagram addiction, you can always use the Screen Time function on Android and iPhone. But it’s more of a temporary lock on your Instagram usage. Besides, it’s very easy to bypass the time limit and get extra time for Instagram feed browsing. You can also disable your Instagram account temporarily, but that won’t serve the purpose either. Instead, it keeps the door open for you to go back to the same Instagram addiction in the future....

As far as majority of Office users are concerned, they start with a blank document or open an existing saved one to work on. Template usage, especially when you begin your work, isn’t that common if you ask me. So, the Start screen is no at all necessary for general everyday use. If you agree, let’s see how we can disable the Start screen on Office 2013 products. Disable Start Screen for Individual Office 2013 Programs Step 1: Launch the Office program for which you want to disable the welcome Start screen for....
