| Android Gets A Security Update To Better Sniff Out Malicious Apps Posted: 12 Apr 2014 05:30 PM PDT  Rolling out to all phones and tablets running Android 2.3+ is an update to the Verify Apps feature that will now continuously check apps for malicious activity, keeping your Android device even safer.

| iCab: Another Powerful Alternative to Safari on the iPad Posted: 12 Apr 2014 12:00 PM PDT  When I recently compared six alternative web browsers for the iPad, I didn’t know about iCab ($1.99, universal) – a browser several MakeUseOf readers thought should have been a part of my review.
