I looked through dozens of available journal apps; here’s my list of the four best apps for journaling.

Etsy has made it far easier for small businesses and local craftsman to promote and sell their handmade or vintage goods.

Meanwhile, the options available on Etsy are endless and certainly deserve a look. Here’s five gorgeous and/or useful Apple accessories you can only find on Etsy.

When it comes to 3D Touch, it’s hard to know when you can and can't use it.

On Feb 25, Apple filed an official motion opposing the US court order for the company to help FBI unlock the iPhone 5c, recovered from the San Bernardino shooter. This controversial subject that has divided public opinion continues as more and more tech companies stand with Apple with even the United Nations coming to Apple’s defense. Last night, Craig Federighi, senior vice president of software engineering at Apple, published an op-ed with the Washington Post stating that to help the FBI would “slow our pace, reverse our progress, [and] puts everyone at risk.”

UN human rights chief, Zeid Ra'ad Al Hussein has warned “Pandora’s box” will be opened if the FBI can force Apple to comply with its demands. Following the San Bernardino shooting, the FBI recovered the shooter’s iPhone and filed a US court order which would require Apple to create a software to break into it. Apple has stated it never intended to create this iOS as the only way to protect data from the software is to never create it. Apple’s list of supporters has been growing with human rights groups and fellow tech companies coming to its defense. Now, the United Nations is standing with Apple too.

This feature alone got me excited, so I decided to test it out and see if the device could become my new personal trainer.

Apple has created an official Twitter support account, “We’re here to provide tips, tricks, and helpful information when you need it most.” Multiple other large companies use Twitter’s 140 character count to provide real-time support. @AppleSupport allows you to tweet the company regarding its products and services and get a direct reply back to your question. They’re even encouraging Direct Messages for further details on an issue.
