<p>It never seems to feel like Christmas until it smells like Christmas. If you’ve decked the halls with an artificial tree and store-bought gingerbread cookies, then you’ll need to grab some Christmas-scented products to get that holiday smell.</p>
<p>But what products should you use? Should you buy a traditional Christmas candle? Maybe you’re feeling nostalgic for a cinnamon broom or some potpourri. There are all sorts of Christmas fragrances for your home, and some of them are overpriced or ineffective. That’s why we’ve found the best variety of affordable Christmas fragrances for anybody’s needs. You can use most of these fragrant products all year round, of course, but they’re particularly well suited for the winter holidays. And if you’re really feeling the holiday cheer, you could get some Christmas shopping out of the way for that friend with a, shall we say, less than fresh smelling home.</p>
<h2>Aromatique Christmas Decorative Potpourri ($28)</h2>
<h2><img alt="" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-10034" height="1080" src="https://www.reviewgeek.com/p/uploads/2018/11/4a47a0db-8.png" width="1920" /></h2>
<p>It’s tempting to reach for a can of Febreze or a candle, but just hear me out for a second. Potpourri is severely underrated. You may remember it as the dusty crap from grandma’s house, but it’s honestly a great, low-effort way to bring the Christmas smell to your home. You just throw it in a bowl and, viola, it feels like Christmas. <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Aromatique-Smell-Christmas-Decorative-Potpourri/dp/B07HB8FJRM/?tag=reviewgeek-20">Aromatique’s</a> Christmas potpourri smells especially good, and it’s affordable. Since it’s made of berries, nuts, pinecones, and cinnamon sticks, it also makes a great decoration that you can use every year.</p>
<p>Keep in mind that potpourri won’t spread the smell of holiday cheer throughout your entire home, you’ll need to use a diffuser or a bunch of candles for that. Potpourri also takes up some counter space and looks a little old-fashioned, which might not be the look you’re going for.</p>
<div class="product-share-links"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Aromatique-Smell-Christmas-Decorative-Potpourri/dp/B07HB8FJRM/?tag=reviewgeek-20" target="_blank">Buy on Amazon</a></div>
<h2>American Oak Cinnamon Broom ($20)</h2>
<h2><img alt="" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-10037" height="1080" src="https://www.reviewgeek.com/p/uploads/2018/11/09dd8c26-7.png" width="1920" /></h2>
<p>If you want a decorative, naturally Christmas-scented product that isn’t potpourri, then you should consider grabbing a cinnamon broom. The <a href="https://www.amazon.com/American-Oak-Cinnamon-Accessory-Decoration/dp/B078SY3KZH/?tag=reviewgeek-20">American Oak cinnamon broom</a> is three feet tall, nostalgic, and full of holiday cheer. It’s easy to shove into a corner, but it also looks great when you incorporate it into your Christmas decorations. Oh, and did I mention that it smells like Christmas?</p>
<p>Like the potpourri, the cinnamon broom is kind of old-fashioned. It won’t get the smell of Christmas all over your house, but it can transform a kitchen or living room. They also don’t last for very long, and you can’t reuse them the way that you can reuse potpourri.</p>
<div class="product-share-links"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/American-Oak-Cinnamon-Accessory-Decoration/dp/B078SY3KZH/?tag=reviewgeek-20" target="_blank">Buy on Amazon</a></div>
<h2>Urban Naturals Cranberry & Pine Reed Diffuser ($25)</h2>
<h2><img alt="" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-10035" height="1080" src="https://www.reviewgeek.com/p/uploads/2018/11/fb5c81ed-8.png" width="1920" /></h2>
<p>If you’re trying to spread the smell of Christmas throughout your entire home, then you should consider buying a reed diffuser. The cranberry and pine scented reed diffuser by <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Urban-Naturals-Cranberry-Holiday-Diffuser/dp/B01MTO1WRG/?tag=reviewgeek-20">Urban Naturals</a> is a no-effort, long-lasting fragrance solution. Imagine coming home to the mature, natural smells of cranberry and pine without lifting a finger. If you need to save some of the diffuser oil for later, you just take out the reeds and put the cork back on the bottle.</p>
<p>Reed diffusers are a great way to scent-ify your home, especially around Christmas time. Their convenience is unmatched, and you don’t have to worry about sprays, smoke, or any of that stuff. But the always-on convenience of reed diffusers means that you’ll probably get used to the smell of Christmas (but you’re guests will certainly notice it).</p>

<img alt="" src="https://images.fonearena.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/ASUS-ZenFone-Max-Pro-M2-e1543633515149.jpg" /> It is already known that Asus is working on a sequel to the Zenfone Max M1; the Max M2 (ZB631KL) and Zenfone Max Pro M2 (ZB633KL). These new phones are expected to pack huge batteries like the predecessor but the most important thing is the brand new design as well as upgraded hardware. The ASUS ZenFone Max Pro M2 is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 660 SoC clocked at 2.2GHz Octa-Core processor, while the regular model will have the same Snapdragon 636 SoC clocked at 1.8GHz Octa-Core processor. Both the variants will post a 6-inch Full HD+ 19:5:9 notch display. The notch is slightly wider on the Max M2 than on the Max Pro M2. The ZenFone Max M2 comes in two variants; 4GB RAM and 32GB storage and another with the same 4GB RAM and 64GB storage. The Max Pro M2 comes with 4GB RAM and storage options include 64/128GB with support for the microSD card slot. The Pro variant will also have a 6GB RAM variant just like the Pro M1. The ASUS ZenFone Max Pro M2 expected to pack a 12-megapixel Sony IMX486 sensor on the back, coupled with a 5MP secondary shooter. The regular Max M2 will have a 13MP sensor but no further information ...

Apple finally implements Indian Govt’s TRAI DND – Do Not Disturb app on iPhone

Admin 0 Mobiles 11:33

<img alt="" src="https://images.fonearena.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Apple-TRAI-DND-e1543634561166.jpg" /> Threatened by the TRAI, Apple is finally implementing the anti-spam measures for iPhones in India. TRAI has warned Apple to ban iPhones from the country's cellular network if the company didn’t approve a government-developed Do Not Disturb app by January 2019. With the deadline approaching fast, Apple has finally implemented and the app is available on App Store. The app is named 'TRAI DND – Do Not Disturb' promises to help users curb unwanted phone calls and text messages — an issue that has become hugely problematic within the country. The app combats by letting users join a “do not disturb” registry and allowing them to report unwanted contacts. Google allowed the app in its PlayStore back in 2019 and the app was being updated to 2.0 earlier this year. Citing the privacy concerns, Apple didn't allow the app to be released on the App Store though it agreed to cooperate on a version of the app that wouldn’t share a user’s call or message logs with Indian authorities. At the moment, it is unclear the version of DND that is released in the App Store follows the additional privacy protections beyond what was originally devised by TRAI. The registration process appears to leverage the SMS/Call ...

Google said to be planning on shutting down Hangouts in 2020

<img alt="" src="https://images.fonearena.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/Google-Hangouts-e1543632795274.jpg" /> According to a new report, Google said to be planning on shutting down Hangouts sometime in 2020. This doesn't come as a surprise as Google stopped any further development of the app more than a year ago. Given how Google abandonment the development of the app, many have already transitioned away from using it. However, Hangout still remains a prominent chat option in Gmail on the web and the app is still live on PlayStore till date but many recent user reviews clearly indicate that the app is aging, noting bugs and performance issues. However, Hangouts as a brand will continue to live on with G Suite’s Hangouts Chat and Hangouts Meet, the former intended to be a team communication app and the latter a video meetings platform. Google's Voice calling which started off as an independent was then integrated into Hangouts was again moved back out into becoming its own redesigned app earlier this year. Despite the shortcoming, Hangouts was one of the few apps to get support for Android Auto's new MMS and RCS functionality. Source

Amazon Echo speakers finally get support for Apple Music

<img alt="" src="https://images.fonearena.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/Amazon-Echo-Plus_fonearena-6-1024x553.jpg" /> Apple Music support is finally coming to Amazon's Echo speakers and this will enable Apple Music subscribers to play Apple Music’s 50 million songs on Echo devices. Customers will be able to ask Alexa to play their favorite songs, artists, and albums—or any of the playlists made by Apple Music’s editors from around the world. Customers will also be able to ask Alexa to stream expert-made radio stations centered on popular genres like Hip-Hop, decades like the 80s, and even music from around the world, like K-Pop. You need to enable the Apple Music skill in the Alexa app and link your account to start listening. Customers ask Alexa to play all kinds of music in many different languages. Dave Limp, senior vice president, Amazon Devices said: Music is one of the most popular features on Alexa—since we launched Alexa four years ago, customers are listening to more music in their homes than ever before. We are committed to offering great music providers to our customers and since launching the Music Skill API to developers just last month, we’ve expanded the music selection on Alexa to include even more top tier services. We’re thrilled to bring Apple Music – one of the most ...

Google to roll out Call Screen transcription for all Pixel phones later this year [Update: Now rolling out]

Admin 0 Mobiles 07:13

<img alt="" src="https://images.fonearena.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/Google-Call-Screen-e1542783140910.jpg" /> Update: Google is now rolling out Call Screen transcript feature for select users. You can view this under Recent calls -> Call Details -> See transcript. Earlier: One of the handiest features Google introduced with Pixel 3 was Call Screen, meaning it will screen unknown calls so you know who’s calling and why before picking up. It will display a new "Screen call" button when you get an incoming call. Just hit the button and it will start screening the call. The system will ask why they're calling and you'll see a transcript of their response in real-time. Then you can decide whether to pick up, mark the call as spam, or tap to respond with one of the quick replies. Google says that this ability to screen calls is designed to help you quickly determine whether the call is important. The feature is powered by AI and runs in real-time on your device. The company says that the experience is fast, responsive, and private to you. It keeps power consumption to a minimum and even works without a data connection. Call Screen is initially available in English to Pixel 3 users in the US and will launch to Pixel 1 and 2 users ...

How to Add a Website to Your Chromebook Shelf

Google Sucks at Finishing Things, and YouTube Music is a Perfect Example

<p>Google currently has two music streaming services: Play Music and YouTube Music. The latter is eventually supposed to replace the former, but it’s been out for <em>months</em> with very little real progression.</p>
<p>Andrew Martonik, <a href="https://www.androidcentral.com/youtube-music-bad-product-desperate-need-improvement">writing at Android Central</a>, makes an excellent point with a scathing look at the current state of YouTube Music:</p>
<blockquote>
<p class="article-body__drop-character article-body__first-paragraph">Whether you look at it as three years or just six months old, one thing is clear: YouTube Music isn’t finished yet, is filled with issues and is incredibly frustrating to use on a daily basis considering it costs the industry-standard $10 per month.</p>
<p>YouTube Music is so unfinished and lacking features that I question whether Google has any intentions of following through with its vision of replacing Google Play Music entirely. Put simply, I can’t believe Google thinks anyone will pay $10 per month for it when all signs point to Google itself not caring about YouTube Music’s success.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>And it couldn’t be truer. Just this morning I found myself toying with the idea of dropping Play Music/YouTube Music and moving my family over to Spotify. But then I remembered the kicker: YouTube Premium.</p>
<p>Martonik also points out that the real value in Google’s music streaming service(s) is the inclusion of YouTube Premium, which removes ads from all YouTube Videos (<a href="https://www.howtogeek.com/fyi/now-you-can-stream-free-ad-supported-movies-on-youtube/">including movies</a>)—so really, we’re all just paying for YouTube Premium and getting a music service for free. I’m completely in agreement with his assessment, because currently, both of Google’s music services treat subscribers like second-class citizens (<a href="https://twitter.com/Summerson/status/1067286316549906432">even in Google’s own apps</a>) and aren’t worth the monthly premium when compared to services like Spotify and Apple Music.</p>
<p>If Google truly plans on replacing Play Music—which is currently much better than YouTube Music, despite its own set of drawbacks—with YouTube Music, then it has <em>a lot</em> of work to do.</p>

Amazon’s New Part Finder Tool Helps You Upgrade Your PC

Admin 1 Tips 22:31

<p><img alt="" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-397178" src="https://www.howtogeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/img_5c0166c36c024.png" /></p>
<p>Upgrading your desktop PC isn’t nearly as hard as you might think, but one of the harder parts is choosing the right…well, parts. Compatibility conflicts can be intimidating for a $1000 machine. Amazon wants to help with its latest feature.</p>
<p>The new “Part Finder” is broadly similar to <a href="https://www.howtogeek.com/332013/the-best-online-tools-to-help-you-build-your-next-pc/" rel="noopener">third-party tools like PCPartPicker</a>, with the advantage of being integrated directly with Amazon’s nigh-limitless product listings. But unlike those more comprehensive tools, Amazon’s only supporting upgrades at the moment, not complete system builds. You’ll need to click “Make sure this fits” in the item description, then enter the model or serial number of an existing laptop or desktop to check and see if the part is compatible. Once you’ve chosen the brand and model, a bar above the listing will show you the results.</p>
<p>That’s the theory, anyway. At the moment the system isn’t displaying on all PC hardware components, and it’s somewhat iffy even on parts from major brands. For example, after entering my ThinkPad T450s on <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00LMXBOP4/?tag=823814-20" rel="noopener">the Part Finder for a Samsung 850 SSD</a>, the tool says “We’re not sure this item fits your computer.” Which is odd, because that’s a pretty standard 2.5-inch form factor going into a full-sized laptop…and <a href="https://www.howtogeek.com/345988/how-to-upgrade-and-install-a-new-hard-drive-or-ssd-in-your-pc/" rel="noopener">I’ve made and documented that exact upgrade</a> here on How-To Geek.</p>
<p>To be fair to Amazon, this is a brand new feature, and there are bound to be some teething troubles. To be less fair, car enthusiasts have noted similar problems with Amazon’s car parts tool, which works along the same general lines. For the moment you should probably double-check with more extensive online tools to make sure your new parts will work, especially if you’re building your computer from the ground up.</p>

<p>Tis the season for covering your home in as many decorations as possible. You want to make sure your home looks more festive than your neighbors’, right? We’ve checked out the best Christmas projectors and laser lights for creating the perfect look for the holidays.</p>
<p>Predictably, there are a lot of tacky options out there. Your home deserves better than that, so we’ve focused on just a few choices that will make your house look good and Christmassy throughout the season. You can easily bring such devices back out year after year too, so these are solid investments. Even better, unlike balancing dangerously on a ladder like Clark Griswold you just set them up in the yard on a stake, plug them in, and you’re good to go.</p>
<p>Here’s our pick of Christmas projectors and laser lights.</p>
<h2>1byone Christmas Outdoor Laser Light Projector ($30)</h2>
<p><img alt="" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-10219" height="960" src="https://www.reviewgeek.com/p/uploads/2018/11/932f9244.jpg" width="960" /></p>
<p>The <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Christmas-Projector-Controller-Landscape-Decoration/dp/B01EV4OGAU/?tag=reviewgeek-20">1byone Christmas Outdoor Laser Light Projector</a> is simple and effective. Simply plug it in, turn it on, and your home or garden is instantly illuminated in green and red lights. The lights can cover up to 2,1000 square feet from a distance of 25 feet, so it’s a perfect projector for large areas. You’re able to set it to motion, flashing, or stationary lights, depending on how you want your Christmas decorations to look.</p>
<p>There’s a built-in timer function with the laser lights automatically turning off after 6 hours of use before turning on again after 18 hours, so you don’t have to worry about fussing with it. There’s also a remote so you can turn it on and off from the warmth of your house. It’s a great way of ensuring your house stands out on the street.</p>
<div class="product-share-links"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Christmas-Projector-Controller-Landscape-Decoration/dp/B01EV4OGAU/?tag=reviewgeek-20" target="_blank">Buy on Amazon</a></div>
<h2>LSIKA-Z RGB Waterproof Laser Christmas Lights ($43)</h2>
<p><img alt="" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-10217" height="960" src="https://www.reviewgeek.com/p/uploads/2018/11/ea816796.jpg" width="960" /></p>
<p>Another solid entry for laser lights is the <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01K1RGT7Y/?tag=reviewgeek-20">LSIKA-Z RGB Waterproof Laser Christmas Lights</a>. They offer green, red, and blue lights over 1,000 square feet. In addition to the extra color option, there are also more options for how things are lit. You can choose to have one color projected or opt for a combination. Timer settings allow for durations of 2, 4, 6, or 8 hours, with flashing or static lights also an option.</p>

<p>Google Calendar Events are a great way to organize meetings, but no meeting is complete without a slideshow, spreadsheet, pictures, or reports. Fortunately, you can easily attach anything from your Google Drive or your local hard drive to an event.</p>
<h2>How to Attach Files to Google Calendar Events</h2>
<p>Adding attachments to an event gives you an easy way to share materials with attendees ahead of time. It also lets them pull up those materials at the meeting without having to hunt around for them.</p>
<p>Fire up <a class="" href="https://calendar.google.com/" rel="noopener">Google Calendar</a> in your web browser and click the red “+” to create a new event.</p>
<p><img src="https://www.howtogeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/2018-11-10_18h06_36.png" /></p>
