10 best Android launchers: amazing ways to supercharge your phone On an Android phone, the launcher is the app responsible for the home screen, the app 'grid', and launching the aforementioned apps. Phones generally come with either the stock Google launcher, or more commonly, a launcher whacked on top by a hardware manufacturer like Samsung. But, if you don't get on with your phone's default launcher, installing a new one just takes a quick visit to the Google Play Store. 1. Google Now Launcher Google's very own stock Android launcher is now up for grabs - but just because it's the Android standard, doesn't mean it's boring. For your money (well, actually, it's free), you get easy access to Google Now, button-free voice controls, and enough transparent window-bars to make you think you're back in Windows Vista. It's compatible straight out of the box with all Nexus and Google Play Edition devices, and two minutes w...

Xbox One is finally getting a screenshot feature Xbox One screenshots incoming Microsoft has been teasing a screenshot feature for the Xbox One for a long time, but despite frequent updates to the console it still can't snap an image of its own display.

"Nice to finally be doing this on my Xbox One dev kit," he wrote. Spencer said last October that the feature was still "months away," making this the perfect time for it to debut. Hopefully we'll see it in the next Xbox One update in March.

Windows How to Install Free, Effective Antivirus Software (for Beginners) Anyone running a Windows computer knows how important it is to have good anti-virus software-but you don't need to pay for good protection! If someone you know still doesn't have anti-virus software running, here's a quick guide you can send them to help them set it up. This guide was originally published in 2011, but our recommendations have changed since then.

Note: This guide is for Windows users. If you're on a Mac, we recommend installing Sophos instead.

The Mac OS X Photos App Represents A New Stage In Apple’s Cross-Platform Evolution Apple launched its dedicated Photos app for OS X as a developer preview today, and the app marks a clean break from iPhoto in almost every way, with the new software representing a completely new experience from basic code all the way to the user interface. But while it owes a lot to its mobile predecessor, it’s not just a port: The app has some of Aperture’s DNA, and its development team at Apple includes some of the same folks who previously worked on Cupertino’s pro offering. While Photos is definitely aimed at general consumers, and isn’t meant as an Aperture replacement, it does a great job of reflecting the maturation of the general photographer – taking pictures was, at its outset, a hobby reserved for the wealthy and patient, has become so prevalent that if you were to hear about someone who simply didn’t take photos, you’d probably think they were at leas...
