iPad guide, tutorials, tips and app reviews
La semana pasada me converti en usuario de un flamante iPad Air!
Estoy muy contento con mi nueva tablet. Me encanto el nuevo modelo. A pesar de que no he podido pasar suficiente tiempo con el nuevo iPad (Cuanto tiempo es suficiente cuando uno compra un “juguete” electrónico nuevo?!), quería compartir alguno de mis pensamientos al respecto.
Antes que nada, te cuento que el nuevo iPad Air se siente super liviano
Guess what my dear readers? I am so excited to tell you that I got a new iPad Air this past week! Although I have not spent “enough” time discovering this awesome tablet (i.e., how much is enough when you get a new gadget?! ), I wanted to share some of my thoughts about it.
First of all, the new iPad Air feels really, really light especially
You may recall from a previous post that I am the official weather man at home. In order to fulfill my role and keep my wife happy, I am always on the look out for new weather Apps.
A couple of weeks ago, I was contacted by Mike on Twitter to have a look at Seasonality Go. This App is not just a weather App. It literally transforms your iPad into an advanced weather station!
While I was preparing this post, I showed Seasonality Go to my wife and she was very impressed with it.
Seasonality Go knows about 30,000 locations in about 200 countries. You can also use your iPad’s GPS
Es probable que la búsqueda sea una de las funcionalidades menos conocidas en el iPad. Es muy fácil de utilizar pero no por ello menos poderosa. A medida que pasa el tiempo y acumulamos aplicaciones, citas, contactos, libros y música, a mucha gente se le dificulta encontrar lo que necesitan.
Si eres usuario de Mac, probablemente hayas escuchado mencionar un utilitario llamado Spotlight. En forma similar, Spotlight se encuentra disponible para iPad.
Alguna vez te paso navegar entre la enorme cantidad de aplicaciones en el iPad buscando la ultima app que bajaste hace 2 semanas? Tenes dudas acerca de cuando es tu próxima cita con el medico?

Several months ago I wrote an article about how to search on iPad. It mainly referred to iOS 6.
The main benefits of searching your iPad with iOS 7, 8 or 9 remain the same. With iOS 7, 8 and 9, you are able to locate things quickly and easily, whether it’s an App, a contact, song, email, book or appointment.
There is a subtle change though and it boils down to how to access Spotlight (the search utility)
What do giant pandas, marine turtles, elephants, tigers, snow leopards, whales, polar bears, rhinos, gorillas, sharks, jaguars and monarch butterflies have in common?
All of them are facing threats of extinction.
I recently came across “WWF Together”, an App from the World Wildlife Fund. This interactive App teaches us about the different species
Hace un tiempo publique un articulo explicando como cerrar aplicaciones en iOS 6. En iOS 7, la forma de cerrar aplicaciones cambio un poco.
El cambio es muy sutil pero yo estaba tan acostumbrado a la forma previa de cerrar aplicaciones que
Bonjour, est-ce que vous parlez français? Habla español?
In today’s society, it is a great advantage to be able to speak more than one language! Personally, I am fluent in Spanish and in English whereas my wife is fluent in English and in French. How about you?
Some time ago I wrote an article about translation Apps for iPad. Although translation Apps are convenient and useful in different situations, it is not the same as truly mastering a language, being able to speak it, read it and write it.
Instead of relying on software packages and audio courses that teach you a new language, why not try a language learning App on the iPad? Porque no probar un App para aprender idiomas en el iPad ?
A while ago I shared a post explaining how to close iPad Apps on iOS 6. On iOS 7, the way to close Apps has changed slightly.
The change is very subtle and I was so used to the previous way of closing Apps
Money management is a good skill to learn no matter what is your age. Our modern society offers many opportunities to make money as well as ample opportunities to spend it. I remember one of my former university professors used to say, “The more we earn, the more we spend”.
Bank accounts, mortgage payments, rent, credit cards, clothing, gym membership, car payments, groceries, pharmaceuticals, dinners, movies, trips… It’s easy to get lost or to overspend
iOS 9 is finally here and with it the iPad has many changes to the look & feel, animations as well as its functionality.
In this article, I will discuss the usage of Control Center. Please note that Control Center has been available since iOS 7 and is also available on iOS 8 and 9.
Control Center can be described as a shortcut to some of the most frequently used features
This is a post that I should have written a long time ago. Rotating the iPad and muting the volume is a common daily task. Many times, we want to lock the iPad screen orientation or mute the iPad, such as when the phone rings.
The iPad side switch lets you lock the screen rotation orientation
