Switch from Android to iPhone

Apple released its first application for Android devices, and it allows you to turn your Android phone into an iPhone. Application name is "Move to iOS" the application does exactly what it promises to users.

Don't set-up your iPhone until you have downloaded the application and are good to go on your iPhone. The transfer procedure will not work if you have fired up already your iPhone and set up. If you have, then you will have to follow the guidelines from Apple to transfer your content or start from scratch.

From the new iPhone, you have to choose the "move content from Android" after you have worked on the first screen where you choose connect to a Wi-Fi network and language; then you have to enter 10-digits of code. Once you entered, it's time to turn back to your Android and start the Move to iOS application.

The transfer time might vary depending on the size of content that you want to transfer. Our experience took five minutes, with some pictures that were stored in Google Photos. The only difficulty was at the end, when Apple wants you to recycle your Android device. Unless it's a omit some piece of data, you will be better off selling to any third party to get cash back.

Logi Circle

Logi Circle

Investment in security cameras for home is a wise decision if you want to take good care of your family and make it valuables. But after purchasing and setting it up, that's all there to do. Until anything bad happens and you have to grind hours of video.

The $199 Logi Circle camera offers a similar function "set it and forget it" and some other features, but that's where the comparability stops. Its external design and application is full of beneficial features that make it stay ahead from its competitors, it offers more fun than other security cameras in the market. The Logi Circle comes puts an attractive impression because of its unobtrusive and simple external design. Its user friendly look and feel is the initial part in Logi's advertising campaign to impress the users. It can be used on airports to improve the security of passengers and provide them secure life.

The external body of the Logi Circle is made by white plastic that meets with metallic ring, which shelters up its multi-directional mic. The front section makes the jump behind to white plastic and is optically joined with the lens of camera. When the camera is on, there is small LED light show on the top of circular. The camera is controlled completely by using application comes with it, available for iOS and Android operating systems. Application enables you to do variety of adjustments in camera, even you can control it when you outside from home. You can manage standard features like zoom out and zoom in, can turn off and on the LED light and mute the mic. One exclusive feature enables you to communicate from your smartphone, allowing anyone near the Circle can engage with you, unlimited conversations. This is ideal for practical states like chatting with your babysitter or spooking your pet off the couch.

What really matters how it performs in the market. Though it does not fix to perform on the same technology as other home security cameras, his camera do exactly what you want it to do, and does it accurately. Sensor of Logi Circle is able to capture high definition in both dark and light rooms. When the lights turn off, its night mode automatically starts working. Speaking on the quality of video, it doesn't enough high definition to be 1080p, both the recorded and live footage look great when you play it on the app.

The Logi Circle camera is the best security solution for your home, especially if you are looking for interactive, funny way to watch out the activities inside your home. It is easy to setup and the user friendly app extend the experience of those who are not tech savvy.

I think security experts will not recommend this security camera because of its deficiency of continuous recording abilities and specific backup features. But the camera isn't made to protect from Fort Knox. Its external design puts the attention on all of the interactive items that perform near your home.

The best apps to play media on your android tablet or phone

Top Android Apps

Playing media is one aspect where Google hasn't done much awesome on Android. Android’s standard media player is still a lifeless and dull grey experience. The application developers clearly very keener on increasing its sales and rental on Google Play store, rather than endorsing users to keep their mobiles update with their own movies files. Some handsets only officially enable their customers to play only MP4 files, such as if they convey more specific forms of multimedia than the other formats of movie available and when it comes to media playback, the dreaded Android fragmentation position really is a big problem.

But it's a technical problem in the some part. The extensive variety in Android processing chip suppliers in the market, from old phones with single-core chip ARMv6 up to 2012's quad-core monsters chip, means that some smartphones won't work accurate as playing media no matter what application you use.

3. Mobo Player

Much similar with MX Player, Mobo Player is an almost all purpose media player specially designed to decode so much file formats of movies it's attempting to start building them up. Offering good assistance for subtitles of media, pop out windows and playlists, this Mobo Player deserves its own movie award.

4. Google Play Movies & TV

Google developing a pretty awesome flogging third party media players for its Google Play, they would be forgiven for playing their own app free – but this a slick offering accessibility to thousands of videos to buy or rent.

5. Crackle
