Here is this week’s list of paid Android apps that you can get for free. However, if you like any of these Android apps, make sure to install them as all these are free for a limited time.

But if you want to consider blocking (or allowing) pop ups permanently from a specific site, and may be blocking the cookies too then this article will shows you how. Cookies, as you might know, are pieces of text stored on your browser to help frequently visited webpages load faster. They are also used for tracking purposes and have important implications when it comes to user privacy. Here are the steps to block pop ups and/or cookies from a particular website in Firefox....
personal hotspot can be an extremely convenient feature to have, especially if you travel or visit cafes frequently, or if you don’t have a stable connection at home. Using it provides any of your devices (including Macs, Windows PCs and other devices from the iOS family) with an internet connection even on places where there is none, since your iPhone will in fact be sharing its own cellular connection (additional charges may apply)....
Though I totally agree with the fact that limiting the photo uploads to a smartphone is a great idea, I don’t see the point of depriving the official homepage with other features like viewing Instagram feeds, profile management, follow/unfollow users, dropping a comment and other managerial works one can perform on Instagram for smartphone. After all, it’s the billion-dollar company we are talking about. Though the Instagram apps for iPhone and Android let you control every gamut but when shooting and uploading a pic is not a concern, I would prefer to work on a 15” screen driven by 105 keys rather on a 4” inch capacitive display....
There have been stories about employers gaining secret access to your Facebook account and seeing what you post even if you’re not friends with them. Sometimes bosses just flat-out ask for your email address and password so they can log in. This is a flagrant violation of privacy of course, but just how much of this snooping are they legitimately able to get away with? Employers and Facebook Passwords In the past there was a lot of controversy surrounding employers asking for employees’ Facebook logins to snoop....
Initially, I settled for Castbox. After that, I got curious and also installed (and used) Podbean months later. They’ve both been fantastic so far, with each offering unique features. Of course, we have covered several podcasts apps and comparisons to help you pick one for the appropriate platform. Along with that, this post would focus on comparing Castbox and Podbean to figure out the better app. Design and Interface Both Castbox and Podbean have well-designed app interfaces....
However, the temperature that’s displayed in the weather information is calculated in Fahrenheit by default which is not used in many countries as Celsius. Like me, if you too are not comfortable with the Fahrenheit scale and would like to change it to Celsius, here’s how it can be done. Change Outlook Weather Step 1: Launch Outlook 2013 and click on the File button on the top-left corner to open the Outlook 2013 backstage view....

Chrome Remote Desktop for Android is easy to set up and works great after that (an iOS version is also promised on the Google Chrome Blog). Here are the easy steps you need to take in order to make it work. Cool Tip: Windows 8 users should check out our guides to enable the remote desktop app in Windows 8 and using it. Setting Up and Using Chrome Remote Desktop Step 1: Install the Chrome Remote Desktop Chrome app from the Web Store....
If you’re not aware already, Dashlane is a password manager that competes with the likes of 1Password and LastPass. It’s actually my preferred password manager because of its absolutely stellar UI and functionality. But interestingly enough, it has agreed to let Open YOLO work with any password manager so you don’t have to use Dashlane to reap the benefits of the API. Security Now you’re probably thinking about security. Do all these Android apps who use this API to log me in suddenly get access to my passwords?...
The Paper is developed by one of the most popular cloud storage platforms — Dropbox. It takes inspiration from minimalism and offers a simple way to take notes with a bare-bones approach. Get Dropbox Paper The Notion is another note-taking app that has a gradually growing user base. The Notion draws inspiration from the likes of Trello, Wikipedia, and CRM apps to offer a way to take notes in blocks format....
However I feel a bit annoyed when I have to use my other hand to pull down the notification drawer, which is nearly inaccessible with just one hand. It’s even more annoying when that second hand is occupied with other things like a coffee mug or a grocery bag. My point is, it would be nice to get a hold of the incoming notifications from a spot on the screen that I can reach with a single hand....
Because of all this, encryption tools are gaining value every day, especially if they are fast, accessible and easy to use. Today we take a look at two of these tools: Encrypto and Hider 2. We’ll check their most important features, see how they compare to each other and how Mac users can benefit from them. Encrypto While not the most complete when it comes to advanced features, Encrypto (free on the Mac App Store) makes up for it with its simplicity, ease of use and convenience....
Finally, Google has taken note and is looking to solve this problem. Android Messages received a much needed major update some time ago with a slew of smaller updates. Google is also working hard to implement RCS (Rich Communication Services), and has partnered with many manufacturers, like Samsung, and carriers for the same. While RCS is still a work in progress, Android Messages has come a long way. Let’s see how it fares against Facebook Messenger which boasts of over 1 billion active monthly users....
But what about Flickr, the photo sharing service that started it all? Not that it has just been sitting in a corner, mad at Instagram stealing its candy. It has, albeit slowly, kept upgrading its offerings. It has done it again this time. But not in the way I would have imagined. Instagram Like Photo Feed The biggest change you’ll see on the new Flickr 3.0 app (iPhone, Android) is how the photos are presented....

This instant camera is the successor to the popular Instax Square SQ6. Like its counterpart, it’s film-based and packs an attractive square body. More importantly, it delivers Instagram like square prints. So, which instant camera should you buy? Well, that’s what we are going to find in this post today as we compare the Fujifilm Instax Square SQ1 against the Instax Mini 11. As it’s going to be a long post, let’s start right away, shall we?...
With Windows 8 Pro Microsoft would require you to purchase an additional license to get Media Center which means users need to shell out extra bucks. However, the good news is that if you have already installed Windows 8 Pro on your computer, you can get the Windows 8 Media Center now for free. This is a limited period offer and you should avail it if you’ve already purchased Windows 8 Pro....
In a version of Android 4.3, Google snuck in a tool called App Ops. It was basically a permissions manager. Geeks got really excited about it. But it didn’t last. The dream was broken. Google had decided. Your information is what it wanted and it wanted all of it. Giving the user the power choose what data to reveal was off the table. It would make Google too weak. And if there’s one thing that Google isn’t, it’s weak....
We will compare Google Docs to Microsoft Word online and conclude which one is better for your usage and preference. Cross-Platform Availability Both Google Docs and Microsoft Word Online are web-based, meaning they are available on every platform out there. However, we will give Microsoft a slight advantage here as Microsoft Word is also available as a native app for Windows and Mac. But you will need a Microsoft 365 subscription to use it....
