DooriGo is a security app to give peace of mind to individuals and their friends & family, as life can be full of uncertainties. It’s available to download now on iOS and Google Play. The app is useful for a variety of people; the elderly who live alone, friends who are travelling, spouses who are deployed in the military or travel frequently on business, the list goes on. At its core, it’s for people who are away from their loved ones and can be a valuable tool in case something bad happens.

The way the app works is simple – the user receives a text at a set time during the day and has a window of time (also customizable) to reply. If the user doesn’t reply, it notifies their chosen contacts so they can personally check-in to see if everything is okay.

In case of emergency, the app will broadcast the phone’s last known location to the chosen contacts. It stores encrypted data regarding the location of the user’s will, bank accounts and other special instructions regarding pets and anything else.

DooriGo gives peace of mind to friends & family, so they know the user is safe and to check in if anything seems out of the ordinary – potentially stopping a bad situation from turning worse.

It also gives peace of mind to the user, who can rest easy knowing that, should anything go wrong, people are aware and can send help sooner. In the event of a serious emergency, close contacts will have access to the information they need to make the necessary arrangements. You can download DooriGo on iOS and Google Play.

In January 2018, social media feeds took a step back in time as users uploaded selfie after selfie alongside their historical art twins — all thanks to the Google Arts & Culture app. The app quickly went viral as people discovered they had rather interesting art doppelgängers, such as young boys from the 1700s, Roman gods, and even various caricatures from obscure artists. It didn’t matter if the match was a hit or miss, as CNN reports that the app topped both the iOS and Android app charts the week it took social media by storm.

However, there’s more to the Google Arts & Culture app than just finding your art lookalike, as it’s filled with other fascinating features. For instance, many people dream of visiting iconic museums like the Louvre in Paris or the Tate Gallery in London. Luckily, through the app’s Explore and Discover feature, you don’t need a passport to view over 32,000 artworks from 46 museums all over the world. Additionally, some of these museums have given users an all-access pass through guided tours found on the app’s Video and Audio Content feature. And its Education feature offers art education to anyone with tools like YouTube videos, quizzes, and other learning resources.

This project has been in the works since 2011, when Google opened its Cultural Institute in Paris with the aim of bringing tech and creative communities together to find novel ways to open up art and culture to the world. According to HP‘s report on the Google Arts & Culture app, it was then that the tech giant began to build relationships with museums across the globe in an effort to digitally catalog all of their archives. These efforts have since borne fruit: Unsearchable art now has the chance to be discovered and shared, and ultimately, the app was created. The digital archive not only helps museums keep their pieces for the centuries ahead, but it also helps them protect art from flooding or accidents, like in the case of this damaged Dalí painting in a Russian gallery.

Aside from museums and galleries, the app is also reaching out to lesser-known art communities. Case in point, they put the spotlight on Indian rural artisans by launching the ‘Crafted In India’ series last October. This new feature showcases the beauty of their crafts to digital audiences who might not have been aware of rural Indian art before. And with the help of musical star Lin Manuel Miranda, over 350 paintings from Puerto Rico were digitized for the first time just last November. Puerto Rican artists have long faced space limitations and fiscal restraints to showcase their paintings, but the app has now given them a spot on the global digital stage.

While the Google Arts & Culture app may have gained its popularity because of its viral Art Selfie feature, its purpose of showing the wonders of the art world is absolutely vital. Whether it’s zooming into various brush strokes through its robotic Art Camera feature or digitally strolling through a far away museum, the app provides users with an enlightening art experience unlike any other. To step inside this creative marvel, you can download the app on the App Store or Google Play.

The motto of this app is “Invest in Your Mind” and we couldn’t agree more. MoneyBall is a brand-new memory-slash-brain-training app available to download on iOS and Android. With simple gameplay and competitive modes, it’s the ideal game for those who want to see how their memory skills hold up against other players.

Unlike other brain training apps which can be overwhelming and complicated to grasp, MoneyBall‘s gameplay is streamlined and simple, yet it gets devilishly challenging. A pure test of your memory, the aim is to watch a sequence of symbols appear on screen, remember that sequence and repeat it exactly before the timer runs out.

In addition to playing against the clock, you can play in real-time, head-to-head duels against other players or in tournament style matches. Each round gets more difficult as sequences become more complex, giving players of all skill levels a stimulating challenge.

By beating the clock and other players, you’ll earn chips. The more chips you earn, the higher up the leaderboard you’ll go and the more bragging rights you’ll get. MoneyBall also features a handy direct messaging system so you can communicate with friends, organize head-to-head games or – even though this is not good sportsmanship – brag!

If you’re looking for a fun game that’ll also help improve your memory and mental fitness (very useful), then check out MoneyBall on iOS and Android today.

There’s no doubt today that adding a VPN to your computer or even mobile device might be a smart move. With online ad trackers, privacy concerns, and many other reasons, implementing a VPN into your every day routine either for protection or what have you might be a wise move. The question though becomes how do you go about choosing a VPN provider.

In today’s world there’s no shortage of paid and free VPN providers, both offering different advantages and disadvantages depending on who you chose. Even more so just because you, as a consumer, chose a VPN doesn’t mean that same VPN might be good for corporate management or a large-scale device network.

One VPN app that falls into the later category, a VPN for mobile device management and large corporate networks/enterprises, is ijura. Ijura is a cloud-based cybersecurity platform providing real-time Mobile Threat Defense available for both Android and iOS. At its core ijura installs and configures a VPN on your device, routing all your traffic through their network, to detect threats like malware, spyware, phishing scams, and other harmful internet threats.

During my testing I was able to successfully install and test their VPN configuration. My initial findings showed that I didn’t see any performance impact on my network speed either on Wi-Fi or LTE which is always a good sign. From my research, while ijura can be used as a consumer VPN, it’s marketed as a solution for large networks and companies based off their offerings panel.

From a common sense stand point though take for example someone who is in-charge of a medium to large scale IT operation. When it comes time to route all of their company’s traffic and data through a 3rd party VPN, there comes a concern of what traffic the provider see, what are they doing with your company’s information and traffic, and will your traffic be encrypted so even the VPN provider can’t see it.

Unfortunately though whether you’re choosing from ijura, ExpressVPN, Tunnel Bear, or any other VPN, all of the aforementioned concerns and thoughts come into play, it’s really up to you to do your due diligence in research and asking questions.

That said though one pro to ijura is that on the consumer side of things, it’s completely free to use for both iOS and Android. Those on the enterprise side of things will need to contact ijura to get a quote for the size of their mobile device network.

Solitaire isn’t exactly synonymous with fast-paced fun, but Solitaire Time Warp injects a whole lot of excitement into the classic card game. The result is a solitaire game that’s genuinely difficult to put down.

Don’t let ‘Time Warps’ in the name fool you into thinking this is a card game for sci-fi fans. You are partnered with a cool feline companion, and together you go on an adventure through time and space. The time-travelling element is just a way to introduce a lot of different, fun and colourful environments for the player to experience. It’s a joy to play in the Wild West one minute, then in a Pharaoh’s tomb the next. The graphics, sounds and animations are all superb.

You’re also kind of getting several solitaire games rolled into one, as the app blends Classic solitaire, Klondike, Yukon, Pyramid, Spider & more. There are hundreds of uniquely challenging levels with progressively increasing difficulty, so even if you find the game a little easy earlier on you’re bound to meet a challenge as you play.

The game offers plenty of interesting mechanics to create a familiar yet fresh experience. You’ll need to stay alert to overcome obstacles like locks, bombs and card eaters. Hunt for special and wild cards, build up a stream to earn extra coins and stars (which are used to progress in the game) and enjoy generous daily bonuses. Nothing about this game requires you to spend money to progress and it’s one of those games where, once you pick it up, it’s difficult to put down!
