And you might not know it, but the Voice Memos app on your iPhone supports it.

However, you're not out of luck if you already upgraded.
If you use iCloud, you may have experienced alerts such as "Not Enough Storage" and "iCloud Storage Full," especially if you're on the free 5 GB plan.

In the past, if you upgraded to a new Galaxy or if you had to factory reset your existing one to fix an issue, you had to restore your home screen layout manually.

Harry Potter: Wizards Unite has gained quite the fan base since its launch, but not without a few bumps along the way.

Luckily, when you combine Google Fit with a popular third-party heart rate measuring app, it will make things easy for you.
Web application firewalls are one of the strongest defenses a web app has, but they can be vulnerable if the firewall version used is known to an attacker.

And the tools Wafw00f and Nmap make fingerprinting firewalls easy.

Canary tokens are customizable tracking links useful for learning about who is clicking on a link and where it's being shared.

If you've ever received an email from a sketchy address purporting to be Uber, asking you to sign in with your credentials, you might be a phishing target.
