Gmail finally introduces a block feature

Do you have people emailing you that you don’t want to hear from for a while—or ever for that matter? Gmail’s finally letting you block certain messages from entering your inbox. The new block tool is accessible under the reply and forward options of Google’s email app. Once you block a certain sender, his/her messages will be moved to the Spam folder. If you want to undo this, you can from the Settings menu.

The block feature is already available in the desktop version of Gmail and should be coming to the Android app by next week.

Track your sleeping habits with Sleep++ for the Apple Watch

Want to find out how well you’re sleeping through the night? A new native app for the Apple Watch called Sleep++ can do just that. Once you tell the app you’re heading to bed, it’ll use the motion capture capabilities of the Apple Watch to sense your movement throughout the night. When you wake up in the morning and tell it that you’re ready to get out of bed, it’ll give you simple metrics on how well you slept. It shows you when you were in deep sleep and when you were restless. The app works even if your Apple Watch is in Airplane Mode. It’s also capable of feeding information into your iPhone’s Health app.

According to the app’s creator David Smith, it drains just about 10 percent of your Apple Watch’s battery overnight. But that still depends on how much you sleep. It’s a free app but with an optional in-app purchase to get rid of ads. You’ll need watchOS 2 to get this app to run.
