ALLDOCK charging dock takes care of all your charging needs

You probably have more than one phone, a tablet, and maybe even a smartwatch and fitness tracker. And maybe you’re having trouble looking for power points to plug them into because other members of your family have multiple gadgets they need to charge, too. That’s where the new ALLDOCK 2015 charging station could help you out. This new Kickstarter project from Dittrich Design is a universal USB charger that can handle everything from smartphones, tablets, smartwatches, to fitness trackers. It’s compatible with the latest gadgets from popular brands such as Apple, LG, Samsung BlackBerry, and Motorola, to name a few. Plus, even if you have multiple gadgets plugged in, it promises to maintain charging power. It’s said to charge your devices quickly, too—up to 80 percent in less than an hour. It’s made with 100 percent natural bamboo and walnut, so quality is assured.

Their goal is to raise €20,000 and there’s 47 days left to back this project. If this is something you think you might need, drop by the link below to help.

Chrome update for iPad gets iOS 9 multitasking features

Google updates its Chrome browser on iOS platform to bring some key iOS 9 features into its program. The universal iOS app for Chrome gets features like Split View, Slide Over, and Picture-in-Picture—perfect when you need to multitask. However, you probably need to remember that Split View only works on the iPad Air 2, iPad mini 4, and soon-to-be-released iPad Pro. The iOS app also gets autofill feature you’ve seen in the desktop version. This works both for the iPad and iPhone.

The 2015 Back to the Future II Air Mag sneakers finally get power laces

Nike first outed Nike Air Mags back in 2011, the kicks worn by Marty McFly in Back to the Future II, but it was missing a key component: power laces. Nike promised they would bring those to the shoes and this year on Back to the Future day (October 21, 2015) they have delivered. The new Air Mags look identical to the previous version but comes with a hidden powered mechanism that will automatically cinch the sneaker’s laces one you put them on. In case this runs out of battery, there’s a manual mechanism, too. But that doesn’t sound too futuristic, does it?

Of course, Michael J. Fox or Marty to the rest of us is the first to get the new kicks. The limited edition shoes will be auctioned off with all proceeds going to the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research. The specific details on the auctions will be posted to Nike News and via Twitter @Nike in spring 2016. We’re not going to lie, we really, really want one. As for how much this will cost you, let’s just say a lot.

Google Play starts showing icon for Android Wear-compatible apps

While it could be easier to browse for Android Wear-compatible apps through a link in the Android Wear application, sometimes you’re just browsing through Play Store and looking for new apps to try out. Some apps on the Play Store now show a watch icon to denote that they support Google’s wearable platform. You can see it just below the “What’s New” section and near the age rating after you tap on “Read More.” The icon shown after you tap on “Read More” has the words “Enhanced for Android Wear” attached to it. Hopefully, Google brings this soon to all Android Wear-compatible apps.
