Games that will be harder to play on Switch Lite

Not every game is easy to play on the Nintendo Switch Lite.

The Nintendo Switch Lite is a dedicated handheld gaming system that doesn’t have removable Joy-Cons, can’t dock to a TV, doesn’t include motion controls, and doesn’t include a kickstand. This means that the small number of Switch games that don’t support handheld mode and the much larger number of games that rely on motion controls will be trickier to play on the new console.

Note that you can pair a Pro Controller or Joy-Cons to the Switch Lite, so you can still play most of these games as long as you have either of those controller options handy. Since there is no kickstand on the Switch Lite, you’ll need a stand to prop up your gaming system.

Here are all of the games that either don’t support handheld mode or are less convenient to play in handheld mode.

All of the ways you can take a screenshot on your iPad

Apple makes it incredibly easy to capture, edit, and even markup almost any screen on your iPad or iPad Pro.

iPad Screenshots are great for capturing and sharing epic victories from your games, great moments from your videos, funny conversations on social networks like Snapchat or Facebook, feedback on your projects, bugs you want to report, or almost anything and everything you see on your screen. Because the iPad Pro, iPad, and iPad mini screens are so big, there’s a lot you can share!

iPad Pro (2018)

How to take a screenshot on your iPad Pro (2018)

The 2018 model iPad Pro does not have a Home button, therefore uses a different set of buttons for taking a screenshot.

Navigate to the screen you want to capture.
Set up the view exactly the way you want it for the shot.
Press the Sleep/Wake button on the top of the iPad Pro and the Volume up button on the right side of the iPad Pro at the same time.
The screen will flash white and you will hear the sound of the camera shutter …

Will your old iPad case fit the new 10.2-inch iPad?

Best answer: Cases that fit the iPad Air 3 (2019) should fit the new 10.2-inch iPad; however, there are a few things to consider if you’re looking for a case for the new iPad.

The new entry-level iPad: 10.2-inch iPad ($329 at Apple)
Take a keybpard with you: Smart Keyboard ($159 at Apple)
Slight different dimensions, but it shouldn’t matter too much

The iPad Air 3 and the new 10.2-inch iPad are very similar in size, so much so, that we don’t think most cases will have a problem fitting both; however, there are a few differences.

While both models have the exact same height and width — 9.8 inches and 6.8 inches respectively — the new 10.2-inch iPad is slightly thicker with a depth measurement or 0.29 inches rather than the 0.25 inches of the iPad Air. This difference is not likely to affect too many cases, but the depth difference could make an older iPad Air 3 case sit a little less snug on the new iPad.

It’s important to note that both Apple’s Smart Cover and Smart K…

Here’s how to get started with your new Apple Pencil!

Apple Pencil is incredibly easy to use, but we’ve got a few tips to making the most out of your new iPad accessory.

As of March 2019, all current iPad models support Apple Pencil first or second-generation. Whether you’re starting with an entry-level iPad, taking your iPad Air everywhere you go, running professional programs on an iPad Pro, or scrolling through Apple News+ on an iPad mini, you can use one of the two generations of Apple Pencil. It has full pressure sensitivity for dynamic line thickness, tilt control for shading, palm rejection for full sketching, and works as a simple stylus if you don’t want to touch your screen.

To take full advantage of everything you can do with the Apple Pencil, you’ll need to know how to use some of the fun little extras. Here’s our complete guide to Apple Pencil, whether you’re an artist, note-taker, or professional graphics editor.

Can I play Minecraft on the Nintendo Switch Lite?

Best answer: Yes. Switch Lite can run any Switch game which offers handheld mode, and Minecraft is one such game.

Switch Lite is here: Nintendo Switch Lite ($200 at Amazon)
Build your world: Minecraft for Switch ($29 at Amazon)
Switch, Switch Lite, and their games

Nintendo has stated that both the Switch and the Switch Lite will use the same physical game cartridges. As long as a game is playable in handheld mode, it will be compatible with the new handheld console. If you already have Minecraft on your Switch, you will be able to use it on your new Switch Lite as well.

Nintendo has no intention to make exclusive games for either the Switch or Switch Lite. This becomes apparent when you realize you can transfer not just your physical copies but also digital as well. According to the support page, ”software purchased for download can be played on either console as long as the console is linked to the same Nintendo account.”

What does this mean? Yes, you can play Minecraft on your…

Unlock your Home screen to a wonderful digital world

How do you search for and browse your apps? Bring up notifications or take control? Call out for Siri? Like this!

The Home screen on iPhone and iPad isn’t meant to be a destination — a place to store widgets or spend time. It’s intended to be a portal to all your apps, built-in and downloaded from the App Store. Whether you get to those apps by browsing your Home screen pages, by searching with Spotlight, by jumping straight to actions with 3D Touch, or by calling up Siri, Home screen is where it all begins.

Is the battery draining fast on your new iPad? Here’s the fix!

How do you fix battery life problems after getting a new iPad or installing iOS? Here are our top power-saving tips!

Apple currently offers the 2018 12.9-inch and 11-inch iPad Pro, the 10.5-inch iPad Air, a new lower-cost 10.2-inch iPad, and the smaller 7.9-inch iPad mini 5. Like every iPad before them, they’re rated for roughly 10 hours of battery life while browsing the web, checking email, and chatting. But if you’ve just set up a new one, especially if you restored it from a previous device backup or you’ve just installed iOS, you might see more drain on your battery than you’d otherwise expect.

Rather than cursing and throwing your iPad — as much as you might want to! — here’s what you can do to fix battery life and get on with your life.
