Create fun short videos with Apple’s Clips app

App developers are making it easy for us to make fun videos on the internet to share with friends and family (and fans, for the more popular set). Apple is joining in on the fun with a new app. Called Clips, you can create short videos on your iPhone or iPad that combine videos, photos, and music that you can share on popular social media sites. Inside the app, there’s what Apple calls the Live Titles feature, which lets you add animated captions and titles to videos with just your voice. The app will automatically generate the captions as you speak. It supports up to 36 different languages at the moment.

There are different filters available in the app including speech bubbles, shapes, comic book filters, and full-screen animated posters. You can opt to shoot the videos or photos on the spot or get the clips and photos from your camera roll. It lets you create multi-clip videos without timelines, tracks, or editing tools that could confuse the typical user. The app will be available for free starting next month. It works for iPhone 5s or later, new 9.7-inch iPad, all iPad Air, and iPad Pro models, iPad mini 2, and later. Your device need to run iOS 10.3 for it to work.

Review: 2016 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid

Text and Photos by Emily Chung

I’ll be honest, my complaint with the early generation Hybrid technology was that I never felt like I was driving a car… more like I was playing a video game. There wasn’t much response or feedback from the road. Well, the technology has come a long way and one of the first hybrids I ever road tested was the Hyundai Sonata Hybrid a few years ago. I was looking forward to having it again for a road test, and you know what? I really enjoyed my time with it!
