If  shuts down the 1M+ (less than 5M) Google[1] accounts and then this weather app becomes the default system backing Siri, there will be a lot more users than the Google Play store users Dark Sky is losing. Right now, Apple's weather

I used to use LICEcap, but for some reason it was failing me (I don’t remember what). I went on a journey (through 10 Mac gif makers) to find the “best” gif maker and I settled on GIF Brewery[1] and I’ve never looked back. [1] - https:&#x2

Yeah — That is called guided access mode. I use an Apple API that requires you to double gesture to bring up any menus or leave the app. This has actually proved sufficient for keeping my kid kid in bounds. You can always 4-finger pinch and

I wrote this tool (started on Thursday) called Doodle that is designed to give kids a quick drawing canvas. It's a super simple app that I made for my son who kept drawing over all of my Apple notes. You can draw, then press the button
