How to Find and Remove Viruses on Your iPhone

For iPhone users, the good news is you don’t have to worry about your phone getting viruses. However, if you suspect that your iPhone could be having a virus, owing to adware popups, messages that warn you of the presence of malware, or that ask you to ensure your device is secure on some sites, they’re usually scams. You’ll be safer reporting this behavior to Apple to get the app developer’s ID revoked or delete the app altogether. Some iPhone users have also raised concerns that their old iPhones can’t get the latest iOS update, and the devices start acting up by calling people, changing… Read more

How to Clear the Cache on Your iPhone and iPad

Is your iPhone or iPad performing slower than usual? It may be that its storage is almost full, or there are several hidden files that may be hindering it from running at optimum speed. Whenever you use your iPhone or iPad, tons of tiny, hidden files are created in your apps, containing data needed to run the apps. These are stored in a temporary area in your device’s memory called the cache. Such files include memory hogs, junk files, and other unwanted or temporary cache files, and while your iPhone or iPad can have their caches cleared automatically by the system, you can still do… Read more

5 of the Best Free Movie Apps for iPhone

There are plenty of reasons why cinephiles and movie buffs have ditched movie theaters in the current era. Besides the prices of movie tickets, snacking, parking, etc., one of the main reasons is the Internet and the on-demand competition that comes with it.

Otterbox celebrates Mickey’s 90th birthday

NEWS – Otterbox must really love Mickey Mouse. Last month I told you about the Otterbox stand that turns a Google mini into a Mickey Mouse head. Well, now they are back with three new iPhone cases that feature everyone’s favorite mouse. These new Ultra-slim Symmetry Series cases celebrate Mickey’s 90th birthday with three designs that are compatible with the iPhone 6 through the iPhone Xs Max. Each case features a raised bumper to protect the screen, built-in buttons, and Disney artwork on the back. I’m digging the light grey one with Mickey in various poses. If you want to celebrate Mickey’s bday (he sure looks good for his age), head over to otterbox.com and order one of these cases for $44.95 – $54.95 each.

ElevationLab CordDock is not just a clever name

Wireless Qi charging appears to be the future for smartphones; even the latest iPhones include wireless charging. But some of us haven’t yet upgraded to the latest wirelessly-charged iPhones yet, and further, some of might prefer not to. ElevationLab has been designing and building well-engineered, durable and aesthetically pleasing smartphone accessories for years, going back to their original ElevationDock (which I owned and really liked). Their latest product, the CordDock, is a bit of a transformer in that it, “combines the flexibility of a cord, with the benefits of a dock, in one ultra-compact design.” Here’s how it works: Pull up to undock your iPhone one-handed like normal, or rotate forward to take the cord with you! Simple. Made from machined stainless steel and polymer components with a matte finish, it includes a micro-suction underside to help it stay put on smooth surfaces, and it can even be adjusted to be used with cases of different thicknesses. The price tag is very reasonable at $39.00. Visit ElevationLab for more info or to order.
