Apple's iOS 12 is here, and it might actually make your iPhone faster

Apple's iOS 12 is here, and it might actually make your iPhone faster | Educational iPad User Group | Scoop.it
The simple interface of Screen Time extends to parental controls, allowing parents just as much power in limiting Minecraft or Instagram on a child’s device. Google offers something similar in Android, but Google’s parental controls seem to be built on top of their enterprise tools; you’re effectively setting up an Android device as you would lock one down for a business. This makes their tools far harder to configure, and even as a systems admin by trade I struggled with Google’s tools. Apple’s tools, built upon the simple Screen Time interface, is instantly intuitive.

Obviously these tools do not do the parenting for you, you’ll still need to think of your own limits, and negotiate them with your children, but having the controls on your own device is fantastic. Of course, many children may not be as impressed. This message was sent to a friend of mine, once his seven year old’s Minecraft limits were reached:

Instashare -An iOS/Mac app for instant transfer of files

Instashare -An iOS/Mac app for instant transfer of files | Educational iPad User Group | Scoop.it

Despite these criticisms, I really like the app. If the next update brings in multi-file transfer, I’ll find myself using it a lot because of the drag and drop interface and the direct iOS to iOS option. The Bluetooth transfer can bypass issues on days when the school WiFi is in meltdown as well. Until it allows PC access and the ability to browse folders, though, I’ll be sticking with my very reliable and useful FileBrowser app. But with improvements to come in future updates, Instashare will become a serious rival to FileBrowser and other network apps.
