Text messaging is hugely convenient, and many of us (myself included) prefer to send messages and content rather than to have unnecessary face-to-face interactions. These apps take on a whole new level of importance now that so many of us are working remotely. Sending quality documents, images, and text is crucial when conducting business and personal info-sharing, and apps that we once thought of for personal use only are now being employed to keep us employed.

In the mood for a game, but don't know which one? See them all in one place. So let's take a look at how to use the App Library.

How to Silence Your Apple Watch

How to Silence Your Apple Watch (watchOS 10)

Getting notifications on your Apple Watch prevents the need to constantly check your iPhone. However, if your Apple Watch ringing is causing too many disturbances or you're just tired of hearing the constant dinging, it may be time to switch on Silent mode. This article shows the quickest ways to silence the Apple Watch.

There are more earbud options than the AirPod variations from Apple. In fact, I saw the Audio-Technica ATH-ANC300TW ($229) at the last CES and I was able to try a review unit. I found it has several advantages over Apple. First, they do not have Qi charging, but instead use a USB-C port to charge, so if you are an Android user or want to use these with your MacBook or newer iPad Pro, all of which use USB-C, you can now standardize on one cable.

The iOS 14 Guide: Everything You Need to Be Successful

Apple has finally released iOS 14, the tech giant’s most advanced version of the operating system for iPhones and iPods yet. Between widgets on the home screen, the new app library, and the redesigned Messages app, this is one of the biggest iOS updates we’ve ever seen, and we're here to make sure you don't get left behind. We've just published our comprehensive iOS 14 Guide to help you master Apple's new operating system.  

Eggtronic always makes stylish devices and the Power Bar ($149.99) the company sent me to try is no exception. The Power Bar is a 10,000 mAh battery pack in a rounded rectangular brick with a glossy white exterior that looks a lot like an early iPod or the actual packaging that enclosed my original Apple Watch. Aside from the glossy white surface, the only markings are the Eggtronic logo and two "Qi" logos to indicate the two fast charging 7.5-watt wireless pads that are a highlight of this device. These can be used for iPhones, Android phones, or AirPods that support Qi. Like most portable Qi chargers, you have to push a button to activate it, otherwise it would be drawing a small amount of power all the time, eventually running out.
