Fernando Silva started off his professional career in the enterprise technology space with his primary focus being moving large organizations from onsite legacy technologies to a more modern cloud infrastructure. All the technologies he dealt with were mostly in the Microsoft arena but he was always a lover of Apple at heart.

His love for Apple products started back in 2007 when Steve Jobs announced the first-ever iPhone. From then on, it was a love affair that to this day has only grown stronger. As the years progressed he consumed all sorts of media and content related to Apple and its products. First was the blogs like GSM Arena, CNET, and 9to5 and then he also fell in love with the tech Youtube community.

After picking up the new redesigned 2018 iPad Pro he absolutely loved the form factor and the power that came with it, and he realized that there wasn’t much iPad-related content on YouTube. In 2019 he started his YouTube channel that focused primarily on iPads and productivity. He was able to build his channel and community to 43,000 subscribers.

Here are the best Apple ecosystem ‘magic moments’ you should know

We’ve all heard the term the Walled Garden when talking about the Apple ecosystem. Apple’s biggest competitive advantage is the fact that they control everything from both a hardware and software perspective, allowing its customers to experience these little features I like to call Magic Moments. These are smaller utilities or features that are only possible because you have multiple Apple products that work off of each other giving us these wow moments. So here are some of my favorite Magic moments of the Apple Walled Garden.

Here are my top 6 iPhones cases for 2024

Every year, there seems to be an infinite number of cases available for your iPhone. There are thin cases, bulky cases, cases made of leather, others made of pure metal, cases with stands, and cases with a camera control cover; if you can think of it, there is a case for you. All this variability makes it tough to crown just one case as the ‘best’ case because it is so subjective. So, I wanted to create a few categories of cases and pick my favorite of each category. Here are my six favorite iPhone cases of 2024, with my personal favorite one first!

Here are my M4 Mac mini desk accessory essentials

If you’ve been following our youtube channel, then you might have seen just how impressive the new baseline M4 Mac mini is. Its best feature, and what I like to call its superpower, is the price-to-performance ratio. There is just nothing else like it right now. But part of the reason it is priced at $549 (on Amazon) is because it literally brings nothing besides the computer and the power cable. So, of course, you will need some essential accessories to get you going. Here are my favorite accessories that are both ‘must-haves’ and other accessories which are ‘nice to have’.

I have been using Apple’s new Visual Intelligence feature since the moment iOS 18.2 Developer Beta released a few weeks back.

My favorite Magsafe accessory got even better

My favorite types of accessories are ones that are not only aesthetically pleasing but also provide multiple solutions in one form factor. Earlier this year, Moft launched their Magsafe Tripod Stand, which was a great product and one that I used much more frequently than I had originally anticipated. It gave you a very useful iPhone tripod that is the size of a Magsafe wallet. But that was the one issue I had with it. I love having a Magsafe wallet always attached to my Phone and I had to pick between the tripod or the wallet. But it looks like Moft has cooked up the perfect solution.

iOS 18 brings much needed features to Journal app [Video]

Last year, Apple introduced its brand new Journal App alongside its iOS 17.2 update. It was a very basic app with one real function: inputting journal entries in chronological order. While customers welcomed the new free app, many pretty basic features were missing. There was no search functionality, no password protection, and no additional insights that could be seen. Just one continuous feed for your journal entries. But, it looks as though Apple listened to our feedback and added a few new features to the iOS 18 version of the Journal App. Here are all the changes you can use today!

How Apple can improve on the fitness ring [Video]

The fitness tracker market seems to always be changing, and while the watch form factor has dominated the market, there’s a growing interest in more discreet health trackers, like a ring form factor. As someone who is addicted to their Apple Watch, I wanted to find a new and less distracting fitness tracker form factor. So, I decided to give the Amazfit Helio Ring a try to replace my watch. The Helio Ring stands out in this category, offering a compact form factor and impressive functionality for tracking sleep, workouts, and overall health. But, as great as the Helio Ring is, I kept thinking to myself: How would Apple improve upon this form factor?
