Thousands of iPad Apps Is that All it Has to Offer?

The mad rush to get hold of an iPad certainly led a lot of people to believe that this nifty little gadget would put a smart phone to shame. The fact that users would be able to get thousands of apps on their iPad might have had something to do with craze and Apple did make it one of the selling points about the device. Apple marketed the iPad as having specifically designed apps and that these ranged from leisure [...]

Record Every Wave You Ride With This GPS-Enabled Surf Watch

Rip Curl's new surf watch tracks your rides via GPS, recording the number of waves you caught during your session, the distance of each ride, and your top speed on the water. It's the Poindexter to every other surf watch's Spicoli.

Libra for Android helps you track your weight using The Hacker's Diet system

libra
I'm getting fat; that's what you see on the screenshot to the right -- my gradual move from chubby to portly. But never mind the numbers, look at the pretty graph!

If you've ever read The Hacker's Diet, this graph should be instantly recognizable. Each point shows the weight for a given day, while the trend line lets you see if you're gaining or losing weight.

When I use my "main" PC, I have a homebrew solution for creating and maintaining this graph. But I've had to find a temporary solution for Android, and Libra is it.

It's a beautifully simple app, very true to the spirit of The Hacker's Diet. You can create a shortcut on your homescreen that brings you right into the data entry screen, so you just tap the shortcut every morning, feed in your weight for the day and hit OK, and then you get to see your progress (or lack thereof) on the graph.

The app remembers the previous day's weigh-in, which makes it easy to enter today's weight (as they're usually not too different). The graph is zoomable and scrollable, and most importantly, you can export the data to CSV so you're not locked into the app.

If you ever need to track your weight using an Android device for any period of time, Libra is one excellent solution.

Audio Hijack Pro update now allows you to record iPhone call audio

Rogue Amoeba released an update today for Audio Hijack Pro, the Mac software that allows users to record their Facetime audio, that extends the program's recording capabilities to phone calls made with your iPhone.

If you're using Audio Hijack Pro, you can take advantage of this new feature by opening the program's settings and changing the source application to "Facetime." From there, the application takes advantage of the new Phone Relay feature in OSX Yosemite to record audio calls from a paired iPhone running iOS 8.1.

If you're interested in recording your phone calls (for training purposes only, of course), you can grab Audio Hijack Pro for free here. If you're already a user, however, simply check for the update through the program's menu.

This is definitely a cool little tool, but there is potential for valid privacy concerns. Let us know your take in the comments.

On Inbox invites, Lollipop and cutting the cord...

People throwing their Gmail address around, Android 5.0 and remembering how bad the cable providers are

Usually on a Monday morning (or afternoon, depending how late Sunday night was) I get time to write about some of the things I've been thinking about in the past 7 days. Last week I skipped it (and it's not as if there hasn't been plenty of other things going on, right?) but this week I'm finding myself spoiled for choice. So I'm going to talk about three things that got me thinking this week, starting with Inbox invites.

Lenovo Smartband fitness tracker with PC unlock feature appears on company website

Lenovo may be joining the wearable fray with a fitness band that can also unlock your PC.

A product simply dubbed Smartband has appeared on Lenovo's website, perhaps prematurely. There's no price or release date, and the product description seems a bit unpolished, claiming that the Lenovo Smartband is “for young people who take care of their personal health and are interested in new tech trend products.” (Sorry, old people and lazy slobs.)

Zoho Docs 2.0 adds iPad support

zoho docs ipad
Zoho has offered an iOS app for a while now -- at least for the iPhone and iPod touch. Those of you who have been wanting to use the Zoho app on your iPad were out of luck, but that's no longer the case.

Zoho Docs 2.0 has landed in the App Store, and the most notable change is that it's now a universal app. Now you're able to take advantage of the app's mobile productivity powers on your larger iOS device. Retina display support has also been added, as have document sharing options -- which you can utilize in both the viewer and collaboration modes.

Just like the basic Zoho service, the app is available totally free of charge. Paid subscriptions get you additional storage space and start at $3 per month for professional use.
