iOS 15 offers a handful of new features designed to make it easier to manage notifications. This is headlined by a new Focus system, which we covered in-depth last week. Another new feature in iOS 15 is the notification summary. Head below for details on how this works and how to set it up. Hands-on: Notification summary in iOS 15 and iPadOS 15 Notification summary is a new feature in iOS 15 designed to collect non-time-sensitive notifications sent by iOS applications and deliver them to you in a single batch, either in the morning, the evening, or at a time you choose....

Gotham hasn’t aired in nearly three months but it’s finally set to return this week with ‘How the Riddler Got His Name’, which will focus on Edward Nygma finally becoming his comic book supervillain counterpart, the Riddler.

Grey’s Anatomy is currently in its 16th season, which means that we have seen a lot of doctors come and go. They didn’t all receive high marks, but others excelled in the field.

We have identified the most intelligent main characters that have ever been on the who and ranked them based on the facts....

Note: Only write-ups of retired HTB machines are allowed. The machine in this article, named Help, is retired....

After going in depth with iOS 14 earlier this week, today we focus on macOS Big Sur. The biggest takeaway from my hands-on time with the follow up to macOS Catalina is that Apple’s latest OS is clearly being designed with the future in mind. Although it’s unmistakably Mac, Big Sur is a departure from previous versions of macOS in terms of aesthetics. Everything, from the dock, to the menu bar, to window chrome, icons, and even sounds have been updated....

My iPhone X lost a fight with concrete on Sunday morning when I folded up my jogging stroller and forgot the phone in its storage compartment. The smashed iPhone X is on its way to Apple’s repair facility (yes, the one that makes all those 911 calls) and I’m living on an iPhone 6 Plus for the week. A few observations: the modern haptic engine is light years ahead of the 2014 vibration motor, cameras on newer iPhones have improved dramatically, and older iPhones feel slow in comparison with or without throttling....

It’s hard to think that just a couple of years ago, the Guardians of the Galaxy were thought to be one of the most obscure Marvel Comics properties.

Let’s take a look at managing your iCloud storage plan along with a few tips and tricks on managing what you’re saving with iCloud.

Gwyneth Paltrow had a tough gig in the Iron Man series, playing both the role of “straight man” and romantic interest to Robert Downey Jr.’s charming-yet-erratic Tony Stark. Her character, Pepper Potts, is essentially the rock that prevents the eccentric superhero from collapsing under his own impractical urges. Her absence from Iron Man’s two most recent MCU appearances (Avengers: Age of Ultron and Captain America: Civil War) speak volumes about why he’s become an accidental antagonist in both those chapters....

The creators of Halo Infinite’s new game engine SlipSpace says its production was vitally important for the future of the Halo franchise. It’s been nearly five years since the last main entry in the Halo series, Halo 5: Guardians, was released, but the continued success of re-released titles like Halo Reach and Halo: The Master Chief Collection has kept the franchise fresh in player’s minds. With Halo reaching the top of Steam’s player charts only a few months ago, both new and long-time fans are surely eagerly awaiting the newest entry in the Halo series, Halo Infinite....

And now, the first wave of products that will be hitting the market using the Lightning connector are officially on show this week at CES. Using Lightning for audio offers a few benefits, including the ability to draw power for noise cancelling features and more without a battery....

Last month a developer managed to hack together a solution that enabled iPhone users to see their notifications on Google’s Android-powered wearable operating system, but at the moment there is no official way to use the two competing platforms together. That could change at Google’s annual I/O conference later this year, if new rumors are to be believed. According to French tech blog 01Net, Google is developing an update to Android Wear that would enable it work with Apple’s iOS devices…...

This animated series has a devoted fanbase but what are the odds of Gravity Falls season 3 happening? Gravity Falls is the brainchild of Alex Hirsch, who wanted to create a cartoon that was a mash-up of Twin Peaks and The Simpsons.

Pretty soon upon arriving the twins are sucked into a summertime adventure involving the various paranormal secrets surrounding the town....

While Cristina Yang (Sandra Oh) is known for her tough personality, it’s fair to say that the Grey’s Anatomy character with the strongest, no-holds-barred attitude is Miranda Bailey (Chandra Wilson). Over the course of the hospital drama, which just began airing its 16th season, fans have gotten to know Bailey and have realized that she’s actually a real softie. Whether she’s chewing out her interns (in the name of teaching them, of course) or displaying her vulnerability, Bailey is the greatest and she always has awesome things to say....

Grey’s Anatomy may be a medical drama (and a successful one at that, since the 16th season is currently airing), but fans are really watching for the love stories. And the greatest love story of all? That would be the relationship between Meredith Grey (Ellen Pompeo) and Derek Shepherd (Patrick Dempsey). After flirting at Joe’s in the pilot, the two start seeing one another, but not without a fair number of obstacles along the way....

Indeed power button is the supremo uno when it comes to functionalities as it is a sole button that handles right from booting, rebooting, boat loading, turning off the screen and turning it on, disconnecting a call or taking a screenshot of the screen and more. This is what makes us so reliable on this physical button but what if it is broken?...
