Great news for CleanMyMac 3 users! The app is bringing a much requested feature into its program: the photo junk module. It replaces the old iPhoto junk feature. With the new module you are given the ability clean Faces cache, clean iCloud cache, and replace RAWs with JPEGs. The last two features need your permission to happen. You don’t have to worry though, CMM3 also still supports iPhoto cleaning. Current CMM3 users get the upgrade for free, while CMM2 users get a 50 percent discount. You can get the new build here or through the company’s website.

Being Facebook official is a thing but what happens after the relationship goes sour and you’re through with your partner? Facebook is hoping to make the transition a bit easier for you with the new tools they’re testing out. Once you indicate in your relationship status that you’re no longer in a relationship, Facebook will prompt you to try out a variety of tools.
These include seeing less of a former partner’s name and profile picture as well as posts on the site without having to block or unfriend them. Their name also won’t be suggested when people write you a new message or when to tag friends in photos. It can also limit what your ex can see. Edit past posts with a former partner and untag yourself from posts with that person. Facebook is testing these out on mobile in the US and will roll out further based on feedback. The tools are optional and can be accessed in the help center.

Sometimes you just want to try out an app to see if it’s worth spending time or money (or both) on. Google’s now taking advantage the world outside of mobile webpage search with its new experiment. Google Search is introducing app streaming on Android devices. Search results for sites like Chimani and HotelTonight will give you access to streamed versions of their mobile apps without having to download the app to your phone. But Google cautions you need good Wi-Fi connection for this.
Google’s reasoning is sometimes the searches you do have answers that are within apps. Google already has over 100 billion deep links into apps in their index such as those from Facebook, Airbnb, Instagram, and Pinterest. And according to them, 40 percent of what people search surface content within apps. Before this, they’ve only been able to show those that match web content. Now, they hope to give you access to “app-first” content as you use Search. Google’s working with a handful of partners at the moment but they hope to expand this.
