Clear to-do list app adds reminders

Realmac Software has released an update for its gesture-based to-do list app, Clear, that finally lets you receive reminders for important tasks. It might be coming late but it’s still very much welcome. You can now set a custom time and date for any urgent deadlines you have coming up on your Mac or iOS device. While this reminder feature is free, Realmac Software added two optional sound packs called sci-fi and 8-bit that costs $0.99 each for iOS and free for the desktop version.

Acer enters wearable tech race with Liquid Leap smartband

Acer isn’t going to sit out the wearable tech race. The company has given reporters a sneak peek at its smartband during a press event in New York. They won’t reveal too many details about the Liquid Leap. What we know so far is it’s a 17mm-thick smartband that works as a smartwatch and fitness tracker and it features a 5-inch or so Gorilla Glass display. Like other wearables, you receive call and text notifications on the device.

Acer said they wanted to keep the look and feel to it quite simple. It will supposedly have around a five-day battery life and it might be bundled with the Liquid Jade flagship smartphone. The launch of the device is set around late July or August. Quite a way off at the moment but we’ll keep you posted for any updates.
