My Two Cents...
Apps With Wade App How-To Videos Coming Soon...
At my job, I’ve been making How-To videos for the Bublup App,
It has been such a fun project. I use a green screen to superimpose myself over the phone screen and lot of little editing effects to keep the video fun..
Wanna see a sample? Get Trending Content Within A Bublup Folder
Now I want to make more of these types of videos for other apps too.
But for what apps exactly??? I need your help choosing. Tell me what app you want to see a "Wade Video" on
It’s just a 2 question form if you’d like to have a say in what videos will be coming your way soon.
And with that... You’re awesome! You’ll begin to see these videos sprinkled right into the Apps Weekly Newsletter. Thank you for participating in this fun new project.
Okay and now with that... Let’s get to the App News you came here to see.

iOS... that WiFi on/off is smarter than I thought
This is a neat read. The article talks about what happens when you turn your WiFi off and how it can be convenient when your phone grabs ahold of a weak WiFi connection. I didn’t know that it didn’t really turn off WiFi for all connections.

My App Recommendation
It's just plain fun sticking your face on celebrities
I stumbled on reface app this week and had a hoot with it. It'll try and charge you, but you can have plenty of fun for free too.
I've heard my whole life that I look like Gene Wilder in the face... what do you think? 😂

I track my sleep nightly with this... and it’s fascinating!
Sleep is 1 of my favorite things to understand. I love knowing what the heck I’m doing while I sleep and I look at the data for a few minutes every morning.
Autosleep is 1 of my favorite apps. Every night I go to sleep with my Apple Watch on and it collects all sorts of things through the night.
Heart rate, depth of sleep, efficiency, etc.
If you have an iPhone & Apple Watch, this is a fun 1 to play with.

If this newsletter had audio, you’d hear me snoring. zzz
If you’ve never recorded the sounds you make while you sleep and played them back to yourself in the morning, you’re truly missing out on something entertaining.
SnoreLab does this and it does a really good job with it.
Right after I look at AutoSleep, I go into SnoreLab and listen to my nighttime symphony in all it’s embarrassing glory.
I learned I both snore and talk and sometimes I can even understand the words and it’s just plain hilarious.
If you sleep with someone else in bed too, they will get an absolute laugh out of listening to you both snore and figuring out whose snore it is.

And Lastly...
We’re unplugging this weekend
I’m just about to head out the door, about 3 hours north of Playa Del Carmen to a place called Holbox Island.
Apparently there’s no cars on the island and everyone putz around on golf carts through a beach town and the surrounding nature.
If there’s any spelling mistakes in this whole newsletter, it’s because the proofreading time was cut to basically zero as I’m being rushed out the door, in an exciting flurry of “LET’S GO ON VACATION” from our vacation life.
See you next week, you lovely AppThusiasts.
