Snapchat on iOS lets you swap faces with any photo in your camera roll

Snapchat’s new update for its iOS apps brings a nifty new feature we’ll probably see people playing around with a lot. The app will let you face swap with any photo in your camera roll. When you select the face swap button in the masking features, you’ll see a second face swap button appear next to the original. This purple button has a little camera icon to let you swap with a photo from your camera roll.

The latest update also brings with it the ability to replay a snap one more time for free. Snapchat used to charge $0.99 for this feature. But they seem to have found a different way to make a quick buck. You can’t purchase any more extra replays from the app either. No word yet when the new feature will make its way to Android but we should hear from them soon.

Blink app lets you know when your Mac wakes up or sleeps

Curious about when someone uses your Mac when you aren’t around? The Blink app will alert you when your Mac wakes up and sleeps. It’s a simple app that’s easy to set up. You just need to pair your iPhone with your Mac via Bluetooth. After the initial pairing though, you don’t need to keep your Bluetooth on or have it within range to work. Every time your Mac wakes up or goes to sleep, you’ll receive a notification on your phone. You must know though that Blink only supports newer Macs that have Bluetooth Low Energy.
