According to the investigation and testing done by the Chicago Tribune, it has been observed that older smartphones emit radiations that are almost five times more than the levels permitted by the FCC.

In a very short span of time, Hotjar (founded in 2014) has become a favorite of website owners for their web analytics needs. What gives it a clear edge over other web analytics platforms is versatility that not only offers more flexibility but also makes analyzing the online behavior of users hassle-free. Combining several pivotal things like heatmaps, conversion funnels, form analysis, opinion polls, and more, it’s a one-stop-platform for tracking the behavior of visitors and diagnosing issues. That all being said, the website analytics tool does have some shortcomings like the inability to provide in-depth analytics and less organized video-recordings. Not to mention, it also seems to add plenty of load time to websites – which is nothing but a nightmare to the say the least. If these downsides have forced you to look beyond, let’s jump right in to explore the best Hotjar alternatives of 2019! Note: Similar to Hotjar, all the alternatives mentioned on this list offer various pric...

The Google Play Store recently received the much-a Material Theme treatment, swapping out the signature green for an all-white UI and squircle icons. Well, an eye-blinding white theme has already become a nuisance for many users – waiting for dark mode to roll out sooner than later. But, the Play Store will further the annoyance with auto-playing promo videos. On its Play Console help page , Google reveals, “Beginning September 2019, Google Play will start autoplaying store listing videos to help more users discover your content at a glance.” It then talks about auto-playing promos saying that you would need to turn off monetization for these videos.

It means if you have added a promo video, which is uploaded to YouTube, for an app on the Play Store then you will now see the video start playing the moment you open up its app page. This cou...

Leaked images of what’s said to be the upcoming Sony Xperia 2 smartphone has seemingly revealed the design language of the Japanese tech giant’s next flagship smartphone ahead of its expected unveiling at the IFA trade show in Berlin next week. The specs, however, were unfortunately not leaked alongside the images, so we’ll still have to wait somewhat longer to get all that info. Believed to have originated on the Xperia Blog , the images show that the device looks typically Sony, thanks to the clean-cut industrial design language followed by the Japanese tech giant.

Another feature it seemingly retained from its predecessor is the triple-camera setup at the back, although its location has shifted from the center to the left. Click to view slideshow. As for the rest of the design cues, it also has what looks like Sony’s distinctive camera shutter ...

My association with Pocket (formerly known as Read It Later) goes a long way back to 2007 when it was introduced as a Mozilla Firefox browser extension. As someone who has a huge penchant for web browsing and saving favorite articles for later reading, the extension soon became my noted asset.

A stream of racist and anti-Semitic tweets were posted from the account of Twitter CEO, Jack Dorsey, after it was reportedly hacked on Friday, allegedly by a group called ‘Chuckle Squad’ . Confirming the security breach, Twitter said that the company has initiated an investigation into the issue, and assured that the account is now secure and back under Dorsey’s control.
