| Microsoft Made An Android App: Meet Your Next Lock Screen Posted: 27 Oct 2014 08:30 AM PDT  The Next Lock Screen is targeted at users looking to maximise productivity. Its purpose is to show your notifications, give you shortcuts to apps depending on what you’re doing, and inform you of calendar events.

As you’d expect, Microsoft, a software giant, is making software for Android. First up is this new lock screen replacement called the Next Lock Screen. Is It Different...

| Sort Mobile Photos The Easy Way: Swipe Right to Keep, Left to Delete Posted: 27 Oct 2014 08:00 AM PDT  You have a lot of photos on your smartphone, but not all of them are great.

For iPhone or iPad users, there’s Flic ($0.99), arguably the better of the two apps. Android users will have to use SlidePick beta (free), which doesn’t cost a thing but isn’t so smooth. Why Swipe? I don’t know about you, but those “this app will automatically select the best photo out of... Read the full article: Sort Mobile Photos The Easy Way: Swipe Right to Keep, Left to Delete |

| Clips Uses Your iPhone Keyboard & Widgets As A Clipboard Manager Posted: 27 Oct 2014 06:00 AM PDT  The problem of copying and pasting text still remains unsolved in iOS 8, but a few new widgets and share apps provide some time-saving solutions. While there are plenty of clipboard managers for copying and pasting multiple text and images on Mac computers, the iOS clipboard can only save one clipping at a time, which means you must switch back and forth between apps to copy and paste content. The recently released Clips app and a few other clipboard managers provide the ability to access and save copied clips from within any iOS app. Let’s see how they work. Clips (Free) Clips is...
