I tried Canva’s photo editor to see if it could replace my favorite free app

androidauthority.com Unknown 2026-03-18 06:00:17

Megan Ellis / Android Authority I’ve been using Canva for years, mostly for simple designs. So when I saw that Canva had rolled out a new photo editing tool, which is more advanced that the simple tweaks you can make in a design, I was interested in trying it out. I stumbled across a useful feature that’s not in my favorite photo-editing app Snapseed, so I wondered if Canva could actually replace the free app’s place in my workflow. I tried out the Canva app’s new tool to see just how effectiv

WWDC Didn't Excite Me. I Really Need the iPhone 17 to Make a Splash

cnet.com See Full Bio 2026-03-18 03:00:09

Apple's WWDC 2025 keynote had a lot of fanfare about its new "Liquid Glass" interface for iOS 26, iPads, Macs and Apple TV, but beyond that there was very little that got me excited. In fact, it felt like one of the most underwhelming Apple events I've covered in my 14 years as a CNET journalist. That's not a good sign. What I can say with confidence is that Apple really needs to make a big splash with the iPhone 17 when it launches in September. It wasn't that Apple did anything especially wro

Apple has officially added the iPhone XS to its list of vintage products, marking the end of an era for one of the more iterative chapters in the iPhone’s history. Here’s what that means if you’re still rocking yours. Last November, Apple added the iPhone XS Max to its vintage list.

When random people give money to random other people (2017)

A post on Decision Science about a problem of Uri Wilensky‘s has been making the rounds: Imagine a room full of 100 people with 100 dollars each. With every tick of the clock, every person with money gives a dollar to one randomly chosen other person. After some time progresses, how will the money be distributed? People often expect the distribution to be close to uniform. But this isn’t right; the simulations in the post show clearly that inequality of wealth rapidly appears and then persists
