At the moment, you can only […]

Richie Hawtin wants you to explore his DJ sets through a mobile app

[ad_1] As Hawtin explained to The Verge, the app is the result of a years-long process that culminated in the 2017 debut of his CLOSE show, which uses overhead cameras to record Hawtin’s mixers and modules. That results in massive downloads (you’re grabbing multiple video feeds and layered audio tracks), but it also lets you […]

TiVo’s iPhone app finally streams shows using cellular data

[ad_1] There are still catches. Dave Zatz warned that the approach remained “a bit kludgey,” and that you can’t skip commercials like you can on your TV.

Google Podcasts gets a much-needed personalized recommendations tab

[ad_1] The app is a year-and-a-half old, and as we’ve said before, it’s pretty but basic. It is slowly improving — it added Cast support and made it possible to search for individual episodes. But progress has been very slow. Android Police spotted the recommendations tab, which lives next to the downloads tab on the […]

Google’s powerful Recorder app now works on older Pixel phones

[ad_1] Google said last month it’d make Recorder available for older Pixels. On Thursday, it updated the app, which should now pop up in the Play Store for other supported Pixels, namely Pixel 2 and later devices. However, it doesn’t seem to work on the original Pixel — at least not officially. As is the […]

Craigslist only took 11 years to make its own iOS app

[ad_1] You can scour listings for jobs and apartments, lowball people trying to get rid of some of their stuff or see if anyone thinks you’re their missed connection wherever you are, without having to use Craigslist’s mobile site. On the flip side, you can also use the free app to post and edit classified […]
