The abbreviation " VPN " has slowly become established among average Internet users, which is certainly good, but the problem is that people have started to see VPN as the ultimate solution to all problems.

[Android] Mobile + WiFi internet = twice as fast file download

Did you know that you can use mobile and WiFi internet at the same time to increase the download speed on your Android device? If you haven’t, now you know you can! How? The answer is: Download Booster

You surf the internet over your phone and come across some larger files you need to download, turn on mobile internet and WiFi and this app will use both networks to increase download speed. Of course, this means that you will be charged for traffic that takes place over the mobile network or downloads megabytes.

This option is not so new, it came with the Galaxy S5 phone, but now anyone who has a ROOT Android device can have it.

However, the application has a few limitations:

  • only HTTP traffic is supported (no torrent and FTP)
  • Lite version is limited to 50MB per file (you can download the full version for free on XDA)
  • requires ROOT (not a limitation, but for some, it may be a problem)

You can download the application from the following links:

The difference between Sleep, Hibernate and Hybrid sleep options

What is the difference between regular Sleep mode and Hybrid sleep mode? And what is Hibernate ? I will try to explain in the simplest way possible so that everyone understands nicely. 1. Sleep When you select Sleep mode , all components of the computer except RAM are shut down to store data. So, if you do something on the computer and press Sleep, the computer shuts down and everything you did (left open windows, documents, etc.) is stored in RAM.

Top 5 free Google Maps alternatives in 2021

Google Maps is for many the main application for navigation, searching for restaurants, sights, information about an object… etc. There are really many options, including Offline navigation, but again, some users do not want to just use Google services. Google is indeed a bit of a taboo topic when it comes to user privacy, so in this article, I would like to present similar applications that do not use Google services.

iPad 3 and 3D hologram

You've probably seen the concept for the iPhone 5, now you can also see the iPad 3 made by the same company, Aatma Studio. Certainly one of the options that I believe everyone will like is the 3D hologram and the ability to merge multiple iPads into one (which is also shown in the clip below).
