The battery is still one of the biggest problems with smartphones. Although we have phones with a 2000mAh battery, they are expensive. We find the solution in various applications and Power Banks (which will be discussed in one of the next posts).

Probably everyone in the family has a family tree drawn on a larger piece of paper where new members are regularly added (drawn). And that paper is passed down from generation to generation. But as the time comes when everything is digitized, it's time to think about digitizing your family tree. This is also where family tree-making programs come into play.

iOS and Android are the leading two mobile operating systems. Most users of both operating systems have heard of Jailbreak and Root , but what's the difference? Does Jailbreak for iPhone mean the same as Root for Android? No, the difference is huge.

" How to speed up Android " is one of the common questions I get, and which is asked on the forums. There are various tips and solutions, many of them are repeated, and some are inaccurate. The Android system is not slow, it slows down due to improper use of the device. For more advanced users, the device is always fast because they know how to maintain and optimize it. Here are some tips for beginners and advanced users.

Popcorn Time is a popular program that allows you to watch movies from a Torrent without downloading them. I found out about this program a long time ago, however, I only now see that people have started to take an interest in it.

Nokia HERE for Android devices is a free navigation that does not use an internet connection, such as the already known iGo, CoPilot, Navigon, and similar navigations, but only GPS and downloaded maps. Nokia managed to sign a contract with Samsung, so it offered its maps to users of Samsung devices completely free of charge. However, a .apk beta file of this application, which works on all Android 4.0+ devices, has leaked on the Internet.

There are really a lot of fonts with letters that look like they were written by hand, but you are looking for a font that most closely resembles your handwriting. You don't have to anymore, you can make your own font!

No matter how big they are, smartphones can fit in almost any pocket, especially jeans. But how resistant are they to bending? What if we squat while the phone is in our pocket? Will it burst or will it just bend? Will it return to its original state? You can find the answers in the videos below.

It is interesting to see that the Washington Monument is changing the position of the shadow on Google Maps as well! If you go to the location of the Washington Monument, you will see that it has a shadow, and where it will be located depends on the part of the day, that is. from the position of the Sun.

Update (27.09.2021.) For a while, everything was ok when the interruptions started - they were frequent and lasted for a long time. Namely, the interruptions happened every 10 minutes and lasted for 8 minutes, so I had the Internet for 2 minutes every 10 minutes. I called them countless times and they always switched me to someone else. They didn't want to fix it, so I sent a request to Telekom and stated that it doesn't work fixed for me (because I only have a fixed one with them, and Orion uses that line for the Internet). They came and did not know what to do, they said to buy cables and replace them around the house. They left, we replaced the cables and nothing improved. I call Orion again and so on for another month. The answer was always either "it's not up to us, call you and you" or "we don't know what it is". The problem was not solved until we replaced all the cables and the socket at our own expense, at home

The Raspberry Pi has gained great popularity as the smallest computer and is also popular among hackers, developers, and people involved in robotics. It is the size of a credit card and has HDMI output, power input, processor, RAM, GPIO, camera input, 2.0 USB ports, etc. More below.

Sometimes we find cheaper goods on foreign sites, or we find something that is not sold in our country, and we want to buy. But how? Do I need a bank account? Which? What should I write? Is it safe? How am I doing? As I only shop on DX and Aliexpress , I will write instructions for them. Many people from Serbia ask me about those two sites, and I see that many of them buy there because the goods are cheap, and delivery is (mostly) free. For those who don't know, DX (DealExtreme) and Aliexpress (part of Alibaba) are probably the two most popular Chinese sites in our country. Here you can find everything from a needle to a locomotive. Why do we buy there, and not on some domestic site? Mostly the reason is the price, or simply because we found something there that we don't have.

Hyperlapse has become quite popular in recent times. An application for iOS devices that can be used to create a hyper-lapse video clip has appeared, and it has received a lot of positive reviews.

I don't even have to say how useful and necessary GPS is. Google has used it wisely and implemented it in its services and devices, as well as in the Android system itself. For example, we can use Google maps only as a city map, or as navigation. But what if we don't use either? Google still records your movements.

Google has already recorded several cities in Serbia, and on their website, there is a list of districts and cities, as well as the dates when they will record them. According to that list, most of Serbia should be filmed by the end of September. https://www.google.com/intl/sr/maps/about/behind-the-scenes/streetview/#where

News has begun circulating on the Internet that Facebook Messenger has "dangerous" terms of use  and lists the phone's features that the app can access without our knowledge. Of course, every Android application in the manifest has which phone functions it uses, and every user has an insight into that, at any time. Then why so much "panic" about FB Messenger?

Xiaomi is the fifth in the world in terms of smart device sales, surpassing the popular LG. The crazy demand for their devices is growing day by day. In just 2 seconds, 15,000 Mi 3 models were sold out on the Indian market via Flipkart, breaking their record.

I read texts on various portals, which are trying to fill the Tech category, about accelerating Android devices. Mostly the same tips follow, some may write a little "more advanced" tricks. But it all actually slows down, not speeds up.

CCleaner has become an almost regular program on Windows computers. Everyone uses it, cleans the computer regularly, and thinks that it speeds it up that way. But is that really so? If you use it as an average user, with default settings, it will only slow down your computer. How come he slows down? It's simple, CCleaner deletes files that actually speed up your computer. For example, it deletes temp files that serve to speed up your internet surfing. This is where the browser saves the data, so the next time you visit a site, the browser reads the already cached data from the HDD, it doesn't have to download it again from the internet. What's more, it deletes site cookies and other information such as autofill, so you may lose some saved auto-fill data in the browser. Only the "Empty recycle bin" option can help, but you don't need additional software.

Finally, Street View is available in our country, but only in a few cities: Belgrade, Novi Sad, Nis, Indjija, and Pancevo . They also mapped a part of the E-75 road from Belgrade to Nis, probably because it was on their way.

A real drama has emerged on the internet after Avast! tested several used smart devices and managed to "dig out" deleted private information. Namely, experts from the Avast company bought 20 used phones with a factory reset , to delete all the data, but they managed to get most of the information and content that was in those devices.

Android users are increasingly complaining about how the mobile operator delivered bills with huge numbers without even knowing how they managed to spend so much. Then a problem arises because the subscriber does not want to pay that amount of money because he did not spend so many megabytes, at least he does not know that he did. That's right, he doesn't know that he did because he didn't consciously spend it, the Android device did it. Then the subscriber takes the fact that he exceeded Android to avoid paying extra megabytes.

There are many sites with film descriptions , especially foreign ones. As for the domestic ones, there are some, but mostly they don't have a large database of films, and the descriptions are too long. The filmopis site has a fairly large database of films and the descriptions are not too long - a few paragraphs of everything, just to decide whether the film is for you or not. In addition to the description, you can read the comments of other users/visitors, watch the Trailer , and general information about the film: director, main actors, rating, duration, release date, genre…

If you've looked at the detailed specification of an Android or GPS device, you may have seen another term next to the GPS tag and didn't know exactly what it represents.
