Flash storage for your “i” devices can be hard to come by even though the iPhone and iPad have been around for years now. Recently I had a chance to review the PhotoFast Max Extreme, a 64 GB flash drive with USB and Lightning connections and it works great, but it is always neat to

Until now, the only iPhone dock that I’ve ever used was attached to an alarm clock. Simple iPhone docks have intrigued me, but I had yet to try one and see if they were useful. The number one reason I never picked one up was due to the myriad of cases I enjoy using, since

I have a confession to make. I am a caseaholic. I already had three iPhone cases before my iPhone 6 Plus even arrived. I had a black leather folio case, a knock-off of a Twelve South BookBook brown leather wallet case, and a blue slim case with holster from Best Buy. I had wanted to

Like most parents, my wife and I prefer to have our kids playing as opposed to zoning out in front of the TV. We do our best to try to incorporate learning into playtime, but it’s not always easy.

I’ve always been a fan of the LEGO Mindstorms robotics system that teaches children and adults how to build and program robots. Usually, you would use your Mac or PC to program the robot’s brain, but now you can use your iPad or Android tablet, too. The LEGO Group just announced the availability of its

Back in the summer of 2012, I reviewed the Next Issue magazine app for the iPad. I had been waiting (not so) patiently for the iOS version since I wrote about the Android version of the app in the spring of that same year. Next Issue gave you access to digital versions of dozens of

Telegram is a messaging app that looks and feels a lot like WhatsApp, however, there are some very distinct differences. Telegram is available for every platform: iOS, Android, Windows Phone, PC, Mac, Linux, and a web version as well. It is cloud based so you can access your messages from multiple devices but also secure

Okay, so you’re the proud new owner of an Apple Watch. Maybe you’ve even acquired a second band – something a little dressier than that sport band you got with the watch itself. When you’re traveling, you’ll need something to carry both the charger for your watch, as well as the extra band(s) you may

iPads and iPhones, I love them all! The only issue I have with them is the lack of external storage options for the “i” devices. I like a lot of other budget minded consumers opted for the bare bones 16 Gig model iPhone 6, so storage space on my phone is at a premium, and

It’s no great secret that even at the highest volume, the sound level on a phone is rather lacking. A Bluetooth or wired speaker system is a necessity if you are using your phone to stream music at home. The trade offs with those solutions though are the inconvenience of portability as well as having

A while back I reviewed the Mod-3 Radius case for the iPhone 5. It was a crazy cool minimal case that protected all corners with a simple x-shaped frame. Now Mod-3 is introducing a new version for the iPhone 6s and 6s+ called the Alt.

I just got an iPhone 6s and I love it. Usually, I don’t bother with a case, but because I paid full price this time to avoid a new contract, I decided to change that. Also, because I carry both my phone and wallet in the front pocket of my jeans, I wanted to give

I’ve always liked to draw and doodle, but when I was a kid, I did it all the time. I used to trace comic book characters to help me figure out how to draw them on my own. I would have loved a Boogie Board Play n’ Trace back eWriter back then. You may already be
