  • First look: Fitbit guns for Apple Watch Series 3 with Ionic smartwatch

    Will it last longer than my Son’s Fitbit? His fell apart after 15 months.

  • Apple's "Carpool Karaoke: The Series" now available for streaming on Apple Music

    As Will Smith says, "If it not broke don't try to fix it". The format is changed, nothing major but enough little things to reduce the natural rhythm compared with the original. Unlike other Carpools the songs were not engaging for those who don't known them and the scenes were split with irrelevant linking pictures. 3 out of 10.

  • Flash is dead: Adobe announces end-of-life plans, will stop distribution in 2020

    This is good news but getting already constructed websites to be updated may prove hard. I have had to write to my son's school many times when they have set web based homework using sites that require Flash. As an Apple only family my son has been unable to do the homework due to our lack of Flash on our iMacs. l believe this is discriminatory and may result in no marks. The school has always been good about the issue but the homework still continues sometimes to be Flash based. I expect most of the teachers have no idea about the problems with Flash and many owners of older websites have not got resources to update their web pages.

  • iPhone owners more excited about HomePod or Beats than Amazon Echo, survey finds

    I purchased an Amazon Echo when it first came out in the U.K. It was unable to connect to my British Telecom wifi router, which Amazon said they knew about. BT supply  about 1 in 3 routers in the U.K, which is a massive amount of lost customers. I returned my Echo to receive a refund. Hopefully Apple's HomePod will not have the same issues and will simply work straight out of the box.

  • Ring ships Apple-compatible Video Doorbell 2, says HomeKit coming to other accessories

    cleger said:
    I Bought the Ring Pro the day it was announced it would support Homekit by the end of the year back in June of 2016... The Ring Forums kept promising by the end of the year, until the end of the year came and then they promised first part of 2017, til that passed now were promised end of 2017. So will we actually get homekit support, no body knows...
    It was a very similar situation with the Tado HomeKit compatible heating hub. After more than a year of delays the company sent me a letter of apology with a chocolate bar. Finiallly the Tado HomeKit hub is apparently available but l am still waiting to receive it.
