Android Lollipop still doesn't have a simple way to add a custom lock screen wallpaper, so when I came across Corgi For Feedly from developer Stan Dmitriev, I had to check it out.

Cards Against Humanity is a popular party game with good old-fashioned raunchy adult themes that go quite well with a few alcoholic beverages.

When you send an emoji from your Android device to someone that uses an iPhone, they don't see the same smiley that you do. And while there is a cross-platform standard for emojis, these don't work the same way as unicode-based smilies or dongers, so not every operating system displays these little guys the same way.

Apple's new iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus go on sale Sept. 19th, but pre-orders begin on Sept. 12th. If you're ready to trade in your iPhone 5 for one of these bigger and more iOS 8-friendly devices, you're probably going to pre-order.

If you've ever attended school or held a job, you're probably well familiar with Microsoft Office, whether you used it or not.

If you've ever used a custom ROM on one of your devices, chances are it had a built-in feature that allowed you to kill any app by long-pressing the back button.

The more we use our smartphones, the more storage space becomes occupied—it's an inescapable fact. But as the data accumulates and chokes off our storage, it can become difficult to identify exactly which files are occupying the most space.

Why does my screen sometimes freeze? Once the screen freezes, I can only access by voice command. It usually freezes after being carried in my pocket. On another occasion it was after I left it in my car for a couple of hours. To restart I have to remove the battery and restart by using the three point start. This doesn't always work the first time, sometimes I may have to repeat this process numerous times.

Emojis, smilies, emoticons—whatever you prefer to call them, these fun little guys can bring a text-based conversation to life.

Or perhaps you can't quite put your sentiment into words, but one of these little graphics suits the moment perfectly.

As touchscreen phones continue to evolve, the need for physical buttons seems less and less pronounced. While hard keys may seem like an endangered component on mobile devices, save for the Samsung Galaxy line, it'd be difficult to fathom a world where volume keys are absent.

When going out to eat with friends, it's inevitable that one person takes charge at the end of the meal to split the bill. They whip out a pen and begin asking everyone what they ordered, carefully dividing, adding, and subtracting on the back of the receipt for everyone to use. Unfortunately, that never seems to work as intended. One person will end up paying a little more, while another will pay less.

I hate flying for two reasons. Firstly, I'm afraid of heights and turbulence is absolutely hellish. Secondly, I hate overspending on airfare. Flying can be unnecessarily expensive, especially if you don't plan ahead or must deal with inclement weather. Nevertheless, the travel season is almost here and we're always looking for the cheapest, most convenient flight. But what service actually provides you with exactly that?

Granting seamless access to your favorite or most utilized apps with just a tap, the Galaxy S5's "Toolbox" feature is one that plenty of other Android users wish they had.

As technology continues to advance, we as consumers are privileged enough to be able to take higher quality photos and videos and listen to clearer and better-sounding music on our mobile devices. But sometimes we forget that there's a price to pay for that awesome content—enormous file sizes.

Coming out of a slump in 2014 (to put it nicely), Samsung has announced the release of their long-waited Galaxy S6 flagship for 2015. With the recent announcement and various photo leaks of the device, Android and Samsung enthusiasts are eager to get their hands on a system dump of the device itself.

The Overview screen (aka Recent Apps) on Android got a huge upgrade when 5.0 Lollipop was released.

Hi, I have an iPhone 5 with jailbroken iOS 7. It charges from the wall charger but it can't be detected on my PC except in DFU mode and iTunes asks to either restore or update. I don't want to do either as I have no backup and don't want to upgrade to iOS 8 and lose my current jailbreak.

When I first received my HTC One M8, I was in love with the 5-inch screen size, but the icons and font just seemed too big, wasting valuable screen real estate. Phablets, like the Samsung Galaxy Note 4, have only slightly larger screens, but don't seem to have this problem since manufacturers lowered the device's DPI, or dots per inch.
