I’ve started to listen to several podcasts from Privacy International and one about health data got me looking at apps I’ve used in the past a bit more closely. Their work on looking at mental health sites was a bit of an eye opener. I used this information to look at apps I’ve used inContinue reading “Are your mental health apps tracking you?”

How does Spotify compare to Apple Music?
A couple of weeks ago I decided to switch to a few apps that didn’t tie me to the Apple ecosystem so much. The first one that I switched was from Apple Music to Spotify. I’d always used Spotify in the past but switched to Apple Music on it’s release and have been using itContinue reading “How does Spotify compare to Apple Music?”
Switching apps to help to do app overwhelm
I’ve been using Todoist for quite a while now and whilst I’ve been enjoying it I’ve been feeling a bit overwhelmed. Despite all of it’s positives Todoist still isn’t great at dealing with overdue tasks. If you miss a task or don’t get to it it’ll flag as overdue, which is great for some butContinue reading “Switching apps to help to do app overwhelm”
Will I be subscribing to Glass?
I’ve been enjoying my time with Glass but over the last few days my usage has dropped significantly and I’m wondering why. I enjoy looking at the images and sharing my own but as someone trying to use my phone less it’s turning into an app that I’m maybe checking in with a little tooContinue reading “Will I be subscribing to Glass?”
Some more thoughts on the Glass app
I’ve had some more time with Glass and I’m still enjoying my time there. I think looking at some of the sentiment on Twitter and reviews on the App Store some are still not getting it. It’s not Instagram, that’s a very good thing. My view is that it’s a place to share and viewContinue reading “Some more thoughts on the Glass app”
Some thoughts on Glass, a new photo sharing app
I’ve been using Glass now for a couple of days and wanted to share some initial thoughts on the subscription based service. First off let’s talk that subscription, I wish more apps did this. I’ve been leaving social media slowly over the last few years, just keeping those that line up with my values. PayingContinue reading “Some thoughts on Glass, a new photo sharing app”

Apple News is the reason I cancelled Apple One
I’ve been playing around with some of the various subscription options within the Apple One bundle. To my surprise I’m enjoying Apple TV+ (currently working my way through Mythic Quest), I enjoy Apple Music, Arcade is just ok, Fitness+ is an Apple Watch seller (in a good way) but I can’t continue with it forContinue reading “Apple News is the reason I cancelled Apple One”
Don’t overthink your productivity apps
If you have been following me for a while you’ll know that I switched productivity apps constantly trying to figure out what would work 100% with how I work. What I have come to realise is that there’s no 100% (for you) app out there and that if you use one solution for more thanContinue reading “Don’t overthink your productivity apps”
Is Unsplash worth it?
I recently recreated my Unsplash account in a bid to encourage me to take more photos. I was on the fence about this given I previously deleted my account but I think I’m ok giving it a try for a bit. I use it as a source of inspiration, a place to get cool wallpapersContinue reading “Is Unsplash worth it?”
