Hi this is Phil from Make Tech Easier and welcome to five essential laptop apps
for people on the move. Looking at the title you might be wondering what a
"laptop app" is and whether you've missed out on some kind of mini tech revolution
by never having heard one. Don't worry because technically any app
that can be used on your laptop can also be used on your desktop. The only
difference is that some apps out there are particularly useful for those on the
go, whether it's keeping yourself protected when you're using a public
Wi-Fi hotspot, or trying to figure out why your battery's draining
so quickly, we have you covered with our rundown of the five best laptop apps.
HTTPS Everywhere. When you're out and about with your laptop connecting to
public Wi-Fi without a care in the world you want to get online with the
knowledge that each site you visit is hidden from unwelcome eyes. With HTTPS
Everywhere (the extension for Firefox Chrome and Opera) most of the major sites
you visit get bolted on with HTTPS security, meaning that all your browsing
on them, any data you enter and so on is encrypted. It's a great solution to
increase your online protection. Battery Optimizer. Your battery is one of the
most crucial aspects of your laptop and you want to be able to take every
precaution to squeeze as much juice out of it as possible.
Enter Battery Optimizer, a free app that displays various aspects of your battery
usage, such as how long lasts per charge, how long it takes to charge and how its lifespan
inevitably decreases over time. You can set it to give you notifications when
you're using battery intensive applications and also to remind you when
you can potentially save on some battery life. It's a must to get the most out of
that fragile Li-Ion slab in your laptop ClockworkMod Tether. Tethering through
your smart phone should be a standard feature these days but there are plenty of
people who have reported issues when trying to connect to their computers. If you're
one of those people you should take ClockworkMod Tether for a spin, via the
Android app or desktop installer. The makers behind Android's finest recovery tool
offer one of the best tethering tools too and even though it's technically
a trial you can clear data on it when the trial expires to continue using it
for free. Don't tell anyone we told you . . . Unified Remote. Picture the
scene: you're in a hotel room and want to kick back with some Netflix while lying on bed
but you can't be bothered to hunch over your laptop each time you want to
watch something different. What do you do? Unified Remote is what you do. This
app turns your iPhone or Android phone (or even Windows Phone) into a remote for
your Windows desktop. Not only that it has dedicated remotes for Netflix, Amazon
Prime and all manner of TV services and web browsers. You get 18 remotes in the
free version and a whopping 90 in the full version as well as voice commands
and other goodies. Google Drive. DUH! some of you may say as we cap this list off
with an app that everyone in their pet sugar glider will have heard of, but that
doesn't make it any less useful. Even the best laptops tend to have less
processing power than their desktop counterparts and are obviously limited
by battery resources, Google Drive is the perfect portable office solution. You can
work on things without worrying about saving in case of battery cuts and you
can easily share and collaborate with others when you're on the move,
especially when combined ClockworkMod Tether.
It just works. Then there's the fact that it provides you with a ton of cloud
storage space so you don't need to strain your presumably small laptop hard
drive with the necessary files. Conclusion. So now that you've gone
through this list are you ready to admit that there might be a difference between
a laptop app and a regular desktop app after all? Do you have any apps that
you've found particularly handy on the go? Let us know. Ok, as always,
thanks for watching and please subscribe and add your comments below.
