macOS 26.4 adds a neat charging feature that Windows laptops have had for years

Apple's recent macOS update includes enhancements focused on battery health and charging efficiency for the MacBook lineup. A notable feature is the Charge Limit option, which allows users to set charging levels between 80% and 100% to extend battery longevity. Additionally, macOS 26.4 introduces a "Slow Charger" indicator that alerts users when connected to a power adapter that does not provide adequate wattage. This warning appears in the battery status menu and settings, helping users identify slow charging issues caused by low-wattage adapters, non-certified cables, or USB-C hubs that restrict power delivery. If users see the "Slow Charger" warning, Apple recommends switching to a charger and cable that meet the minimum wattage specifications for their Mac model, which can be verified on Apple's official website.

This app made me hate today’s giant Android smartphones a little less

Smartphones are becoming larger and more visually appealing, but this trend can hinder one-handed usability. Quick Cursor is an app available on the Google Play Store that introduces a floating cursor to enhance one-handed operation. Users can activate the cursor by swiping inward from the lower half of the screen, allowing for easier interaction with UI elements located higher up. The app overlays a cursor that can be controlled with tap and swipe actions, and it requires access to Android's accessibility service for setup. Quick Cursor operates on a freemium model, offering basic functionality for free, with additional features available through a subscription or one-time purchase. It provides a more fluid experience compared to Android's built-in one-handed mode, making it easier to navigate larger smartphones like the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra and Google Pixel 10 Pro XL.
