Spotify Running comes to Android

Spotify Running was introduced a couple months ago for iOS users. Now, Android users will get to use the feature as well. This section allows the app to create running playlists based on how you’re moving. To access it in the app, you need to head to the menu screen and select the Running option. From there you pick a playlist and start moving. The app will detect your tempo and base the songs it plays on your speed.

Facebook close to introducing dislike button

You’ve asked for it and now it’s almost here. Facebook is finally brining the “dislike” button to its social network. Mark Zuckerberg said the feature is close to shipping a test version of it. According to him, the thumbs down button won’t work the same way as Reddit’s down vote button. “That doesn’t seem like the kind of community that we want to create,” Zuckerberg said about Reddit. “You don’t want to go through the process of sharing some moment that was important to you in your day and have someone ‘downvote’ it.”

It took them a while to bring this feature because it was supposedly a “surprisingly complicated” feat for his engineers. He didn’t specify a definite release but the feature should be coming to the testers soon.

iOS 9 is coming for free to iPhones and iPads tomorrow. Focusing on stability, user experience as well as bringing increased security features and improved multitasking and split-screen functionality for the iPad Air 2 (and upcoming iPad Pro).

iOS 9 requires 1.3GB of free storage (instead of the 4.58GB of the previous version). iOS 9 is also supposed increase battery life on most devices (Apple promised 1 hour during WWDC). Having tested the public beta on an iPhone 5, iOS 9 does seem smoother and a tad bit faster. The new OS is expected to roll out tomorrow through the Software Update setting on their iOS devices.
