Looking for a new Summer Apple Watch band? Well the luxury designer Coach has you covered!

Coach is a brand that has always been notoriously on-trend when it comes to handbags, shoes, wallets, sunglasses – you name it! – but one accessory they consistently hit out of the park? Their Apple Watch Bands: and this summer it’s no different.

The brand has launched even more Apple Watch bands for the summer, and some of the old bands are even on sale!

The bands include the Strap with Tea Rose Appliqué in black. The new colors include the Strap with Prints in Deep Scarlet (red with star print). The Strap with Tea Rose Appliqué is a new band. (Haute Ecriture)

Some of the watch band names have also changed. For example, the Leather Strap with Tea Rose has changed to the Strap with Tea Rose.

Coach’s Strap with Prints will cost $150, while the Tea Rose Appliqué sells for $175.

But hurry up if you want to get your hand on a band:

What happens when you combine notes, task management, and a calendar into a single app? You get an Agenda.

No matter who you are, notes are a necessity for everyone, regardless of profession. Honestly, no one has a perfect brain and little details get lost in translation as life goes on, so notes are an essential part of everyday life. At least that’s how I think of it.

Even though it’s been years since I graduated from college, I often find myself taking notes for other reasons. Whether it’s little details I need to remember from phone calls when setting up appointments or meetings to ideas and thoughts for my big upcoming events (wedding planning is exhausting), I need a fast way to jot down notes.

Agenda originally came out on the Mac back in January, but I only discovered it about a month after it ca…

1-2 Switch is fine, but these games also take great advantage of the HD Rumble.

Progress marches ever-forward, and with the Nintendo Switch, we have a whole new generation of vibrational technology. Say hello to HD Rumble. Perhaps you’ve heard that it’s actually pretty cool, but you’ve felt underwhelmed thus far.

To get a good feel for the all-new rumble, you could play 1-2 Switch, but let’s all go ahead and be honest with ourselves and admit that it’s not much of a game (certainly not at the price point it carries now). Instead, let’s take a look at a few of the other games that take advantage of the super detailed vibration abilities of the Switch:

Thumper
Shantae: Half-Genie Hero
Tumbleseed
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
Super Mario Odyssey

Thumper

Originally released in 2016 for the PS4, Thumper is a ”rhythm violence” game, which has recently been ported over to the Nintendo Switch. When the multi-award-winning game arrived on the Switch, developer Drool made sure to make full use o…

Sometimes you want to game from the couch, and that’s okay.

My gaming rig is a lot of fun to take a deep dive into a long game, but I don’t always want to sit at my desk for some of the lighter titles in my Steam library. My iPhone and iPad are perfectly capable gaming machines in their own right, and with the right apps I can stream right to these while my PC does all of the work in another room. Depending on how your home network and gaming PC are set up, there are a couple of options available to you for streaming PC games to your iPhone or iPad. And once you get set up the way you like, all you will need to do is choose the right game to spend a lazy Saturday morning playing.

Before you get started

Your iPhone or iPad will need to be on the same network as your gaming PC for this to work. If you aren’t at home, or if you are not connected to the same WiFi as your PC, this is either not going to work well or not going to work at all. Making sure you are on a solid, stable netwo…

What external heart rate monitor should you get for your Apple Watch or iPhone?

The Apple Watch has an excellent oximeter-based heart rate monitor for tracking your day and basic workouts, but it’s not perfect for more endurance or weight-based activities.

For one thing, that monitoring comes at the expense of battery life: The smartwatch’s health sensors account for a large majority of battery drain; as such, Apple limits how often the sensor records data, even during workouts. At rest, you’ll get heart rate data every ten minutes; during a workout, you’re likely to get recordings every 10 seconds to a minute.

The wrist-based monitor can also get tripped up if you tend to do a lot of exercises involving wrist bending or quick movement — the oximeter works by measuring the movement of your blood using light, and when you flex your wrist, you can momentarily change that circulation, leading to erroneous heart readings. (If you’ve ever seen an Apple Watch reading of ”65bp…
