Quick tip of the dayNeed help remembering things? Your phone is the perfect assistant. If you have an Android phone, Google Assistant certainly works, but you can also download the Google Keep app. Use it to create voice memos, make lists and capture ideas. Neat feature? Say you put “buy a rake” on a list. When you’re at the home improvement store, you’ll get a location-based reminder.If you have an iPhone, use the Reminders app and tell Siri what to remember. It works best when you give a time or location to the commands. For example, say, “Hey Siri, remind me to listen to The Kim Komando Show on Saturdays at 10 a.m.”🙈 You might not want a reminder of everything, though. Here’s how to hide people and pics you don’t want popping up in your Google Photos timeline. |
