Most of the modern Smart TV’s come with the android system installed in them. Android TV is just an operating system which is installed in the Smart TV’s. This operating system is based basically on the same code which is used in the smartphones but instead of a smartphone’s user interface it consist of a redesigned custom interface which makes it easier to be used on a big screen TV with the help of a remote control. Previously the only way to enjoy and test the features of the android TV was to buy a TV or a Television Box that runs the software. But now there is an alternative. You can try these features on your pc by installing an unofficial version of the Android TV on any Computer. One thing to keep in mind before proceeding is that this is an unofficial version may contain some minor or even major bugs. The installation procedure is pretty easy. You may install it the same way you install any other Linux distribution on your PC. If you don’t want to take this mu

You will be able to pay at any retailer who already supports Tap to Pay functionality. If apple Pay and Google Wallet works, then Wallet will work (as soon you have saved your credit card

Google has made it possible to use around 1.5 million and plus apps to run on chrome OS and yes you can use many of them if not all but let’s first talk about if it really worth the try. Installing the apps ant using them on chrome OS is simple procedure and most probably the support for the devices will be expanded by the end of this summer.

The only bad news till now is that the only device that supports this new feature is Asus Chromebook Flip in the next few weeks the support for the device may most probably include the 2015 Chromebook Pixel and Acer Chromebook R11 not any official announcements but let

A month ago a news was in the air that soon enough Microsoft will be releasing a tool which will help user to clean install their operating system helping the user in getting rid of all the bloatware that come preinstalled in the third party machines. Recently in the new build of Windows 10 insider preview (build 14367 to be specific) this tool was seen integrated in the recovery menu of the OS well not fully integrated as you see in the picture below there is a link in the recovery settings menu which takes you to a Microsoft page from where user can download the tool. unfortunately any try to use the tool in older version of the OS was a complete failure. The tool named as “Refresh Windows” is not exactly what I expected it to be instead of offline refreshing of the windows this tool downloads an image of the Latest Windows and then installs it – which a user can already do with the Microsoft’ Media Creation Tool.

The tech giant was not in any kind of rush to release the function but finally it appears that users will finally be able to access android apps on Chrome OS PCs.
