Tivo is selling their Bolt DVR with a lifetime Tivo service plan for $279. This is a great deal but I recommend you get the 3 year extended warranty for another $40 as some people are reporting hardware issues with the Bolt. This is almost identical to their current Tivo unit and is $420 off the list price. Ditch your cable DVR and monthly fees for this. It’s a much better experience. I’m figuring out how many I want to buy.
A dark mode is coming in a future update
I find it interesting that Microsoft has added a big colorful banner to their iOS app just as Google is taking their's away. Outlook's seems like a copy and doesn't flow well with their design. Microsoft has been pushing a more colorful default Office theme on the desktop for years and already had the colorful banner on Android, so it only makes sense it finally came to iOS. The old design was still a carryover from their acquisition of Acompli. I'm sure Microsoft will tweak it and make the design work better in the future. I don't mind the colored banners on iOS but on Android, it's too much.

I can't agree more. This title is one of the best I've seen and sums it up perfectly. Google really should step up and create a cross-platform default encrypted messaging solution but no one is holding their breath.
Blinq.com has select Beats by Dre Beats X Wireless In-Ear Headphones (Refurbished) on sale starting at $39.69 after extra 15% off discount (applied automatically in cart). Shipping is free. Thanks ...
This is a fantastic deal. I paid double this for my current pair refurbished from Best Buy and just picked up a second pair. They are highly rated by Wirecutter if you have Apple devices. I have never used or heard of this site, but there are some other users on SlickDeals that have had good experiences with it. Hopefully, there will be a comparison on this site between the Jaybird X2 and the Beats X.

What are they thinking? Was my first thought but let’s work through this. Most software makers are going to a subscription model, and CarPlay is primarily just software. It does have a hardware component, but they are including that with every car a la Tesla and only activating it if you pay for it. CarPlay's hardware is much cheaper than the parts Tesla installs and artificially locks. Apple wants CarPlay everywhere, and the piece is a minimal expense. The lone car manufacturer Toyota just announced they too are supporting CarPlay so customers must be requesting this feature pretty frequently.
Developers mainly promote subscription models because they have a reoccurring revenue source so they can continue developing and updating the piece of software. If BMW did have to spend time updating and more importantly upgrading CarPlay to support new phones and operating systems, then I can see this and almost support them. Apple did not design car play like this though. It’s a simple implementation into the car manufacturers infotainment systems. Apple then does all the software updates through the connected phone. Car makers have a horrible history of updating their infotainment system. If they do make a significant feature upgrade, then they could charge for it. By charging a subscription fee there is no guarantee of updates.
Charing an annual fee for CarPlay is a pure money grab. BMW says most people will pay less because they only lease their car and simply keep it a few years. What happens after the lease? The next owner has to keep paying. So the lifetime revenue for CarPlay on one car is now a lot higher.
Google Assistant is everywhere. It’s on phones, TVs, smartwatches, and even inside cars. While Google has been playing catch-up to Amazon’s Echo devices for years now, it’s now taking a big step to...
The first thing that came to mind was YouTube and the Echo Show/FireTV drama. Is YouTube really scared that it's a feature that will make or break the Google Smart Display? These are directly targeted against the Echo Show but have some nice additions. Primarily the physical camera shutter, which Lenovo seems to be pushing this year. I hate to say it, but I might like the Echo Show design a bit better than these. The webcam is on the right, speakers on the left, not symmetric. The backs look nicer than the Show's but who is looking at it. Being able to change the orientation is a plus but are more just repurposed tablets Lenovo had laying around than anything.
Finally! Now can I ask for a proper update description.
What's New in Version 4.41
Thanks for using Google Maps! This release brings support for iPhone X in addition to bug fixes that improve our product to help you discover new places and navigate to them. Get the latest version for all of the available Google Maps features.
Google is making moves but where is Gmail? That should have been their first app to get updated and it didn't need to put other bug fixes in this release. Push the iPhone X support ASAP.
ModMy today announced it has archived its default ModMyi repository on Cydia, which is essentially an alternative App Store for downloading apps,...
As someone who just moved away from a jailbroken iPhone 6s, I am not shocked. There hasn't been a real jailbreak since iOS 9.3.3. I was pleasantly surprised with lack of annoyances that a modern iOS not jailbroken has been. Plus being on an up-to-date, secure platform is comforting.
$10 to charity for each Echo sold
I did not see this coming. Feels like a me-too feature to copy Apple. Does anyone else in tech do product (RED) devices? I thought Amazon gave up on competing against Apple. At least they are no longer making a premium Kindle Fire to compete against the iPad. It will be interesting if Apple releases a (RED) HomePod.
YouTube is back on Amazon Echo Show today. This was a mini-controversy back in September when Google removed YouTube access..
Amazon can do so much better than this. I would not be surprised that they just pushed their initial minimum viable product from years ago. Hey, let's just do a Youtube search and open a web browser. Is this really better than nothing?
Update: I'm not the only one
this is definitely a situation where amazon should have just taken the L

Audio Playback Audio formats supported: AAC-LC, HE-AAC, HE-AAC v2, Protected AAC, MP3, Linear PCM, Apple Lossless, FLAC, Dolby Digital (AC-3), Dolby Digital Plus (E-AC-3), and Audible (formats 2, 3, 4, Audible Enhanced Audio, AAX, and AAX+)
I was excited to learn that iOS 11 could do FLAC playback and I wouldn't have to use VOX. Unfortunately, it's only supported in the Files app and not in the Music player as it should be. Kind of a non-starter and back to using VOX.
“So thankful that Google **Assistant** got iPhone X support before Gmail, Google Calendar, Docs, and Google Maps. This is definitely a company with its priorities straight. Have to imagine Allo is next.”
I just realized this today, but it seems like Google is updating their apps from least used to most used for the iPhone X. I checked the Google apps I have installed on my iPhone X and Assistant, Translate, Keep, Photos, Chrome and Google have all been updated for the iPhone X but not Maps, Hangouts, Gmail, Google Home or Voice (which was updated a day ago but not for the iPhone X and doesn't really support this theory).
Apple Inc has agreed to give limited help to the Indian government to develop an anti-spam mobile application for its iOS platform, after refusing to do so based on privacy concerns, according to sources and documents seen by Reuters.
I support Apple in their privacy concerns, but this seems like they don't want to put in the resources and annoy mobile operators. Can't they use their favorite differential privacy and figure this out. I love Google's phone app on their Pixel devices and how it will show suspected spam calls. I am trying to mimic this on an iPhone and you can now with iOS 10, but any of the decent options that don't require uploading your phonebook need a small monthly fee. Since Apple is building this for India, they must bring it to the rest of the world. People will love it.
Alexa, play some Carly Rae Jepsen, eh?
About time. I am surprised Canada wasn't the second market Amazon launched the Echo in and very surprised it was after Germany where they had to figure out a new language. Now having Alexa and the Echo in the UK over Canada makes sense.
Read reviews, compare customer ratings, see screenshots, and learn more about Google Keep. Download Google Keep and enjoy it on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch.
What's New in Version 2.2017.44204
*Bug fixes and performance improvements
I would love to boycott companies that do this. This release included a vital update and added support for the iPhone X. Microsoft shouldn't deserve praise for this but in their latest Outlook release for iOS did it right.1
Update: Microsoft can't get it together either. Microsoft Authenticator was updated today as well to include iPhone X support and just had the standard "We’re always working on new features, bug fixes and performance improvements. Make sure that you stay updated with the latest version for the best authentication experience."2
Spotify, the $16 billion digital music "startup" that is hotly tipped for an IPO, continues to lay the groundwork to diversify its platform beyond basic..
NO, stick to your core product
