Christina Aguilera partners with Waze this month

Source: Waze

In honour of International Women's Day last March 8 and Women's History Month, Waze and Christina Aguilera partner to offer the Xtina Experience in the app. She takes her fans through her life and works, starting from her "Genie in a Bottle" beginnings to her breakout as a fierce and liberated woman in "Stripped," to her current hits like "Pa Mis Muchachas," that draw from her Latin roots. You can even hear her share advice in English or Spanish. Voice navigation is available in those languages. 

To get the whole experience, you can choose one of four moods: Magical, Feisty, Sweet, or Strong. And you can drive in either a Dirrty Bike or Pinkup Truck. Christina has also curated a Spotify playlist you can stream through the Waze Audio Player. It's filled with powerhouse women, including up-and-coming artists who inspire her and some of her own belt-it-out hits. Perfect for those road trips. The Xtina experience will be available for a limited time.

Webex Meetings for iPad rolls out Picture in Picture support

Source: Cisco

The feature first showed up last month, but Cisco wants you to know that its Webex Meetings app now supports Picture in Picture on iPadOS. Now, when you're in a meeting in the app, you can exit the app and still see the meeting window in PiP mode while trying to get other tasks done on other apps. To enable the feature, you just need to tap on the Picture in Picture button once, so the video screen scales down to the corner of your iPad.

Source: Lego

Lego's Super Mario sets haven't had any of the game's leading ladies since it was introduced two years ago. But that's about to change, at least for Princess Peach. Lego commemorates Mar10 Day by bringing the princess to its Super Mario Adventures range. 

Her Starter Course will be available on August 1 for US$60 (approx. CA$76). A combo Cat Peach suit and Frozen Tower expansion set will launch on the same day for US$80 (approx. CA$102). There will also be other Super Mario expansion sets and accessories coming on that day. Lego has even teased Peach's Castle, Yoshi's Gift house, and Goomba's Shoe sets, but we don't know when these will come out and for how much.
