HP Elite x3. Calls, text, email, twitter still work fine, any other stuff works on the mobile browser since you can switch between mobile and desktop mode. I try to avoid services that require a mobile app that can only be had in Google or Appe cause i don't sit on my phone all day. My college...

I don't know what possessed me to try again (I think I was trying to find any apps to sideload but there isn't a source) and somehow I got my HP Elite to work with the Dell Mobile Connect app as an iPhone. I think what happened was I selected my device and got the prompt that I "selected an...

Only works when I use voice command but not typing it out.

I saw someone say that you have to close all other apps and then open it. That usually works for me or a fresh restart.

Get a SmartThings hub and automate your house

Interested but hesitant.

I can't be bothered to find a use for VR/AR right now. It just doesn't fit into my routine. I have found that automatic lights and other things with additional Voice assistance to be highly useful and improve efficiency. I think the costs and complexity of rules-logic is the hurdle for...

The problem with Skype is that they are always trying to convince their users to use it while they have an existing competing product. Live Messenger, Lync (Skype for Business), Teams, and even the SMS Messaging from Windows 10 Mobile should all have just been Skype with a different flavor of...

This to be honest. I would probably barely notice if they removed it, just as I only hardly noticed when they added it.

Candy Crush

Only if they incorporate the OneDrive music feature, otherwise... no. Spotify does not sell music, so I do not see Microsoft as highly interested in entering only the streaming market, when that is probably 80% of the reason they dropped the music offerings. I wondered why they didn't just...

Night light doesn't work on one of my screens in my setup for my work laptop because I have it connected through a USB Hub due to this latop's lack of ports and a dock. That said, I got a pair for $14 on Amazon just to ease the strain on the eyes (after I saw you WC advertise some on sale for...

I'm not going to dive into the details of intellectual property and how this can be achieved because it's probably not on and Microsoft exec's radar. All I will say is if the supported the internal components and allowed people to fork skins, animations, icons, and connectivity to the internal...
