The greatest irony of modern technology is that its purpose is to make our lives easier; however, with each new gadget and upgrade comes a learning curve that can make the process of adopting these conveniences – difficult. Unless you’re a genuine tech enthusiast with an excess of time on your hands, it’s hard to find the time to read the manual, or explore all the little ins and outs of your new phone for a thorough understanding its ticks.

Right? Technology can be tough to master even though its aim is to provide the simplest user experience possible.  Not only that — it’s often the case that we know how to use our tablet or home entertainment system, but have not been adequately versed in its full potential.  

For instance, did you that there are apps out that which allow you to receive text notifications on your desktop computer? If you’re phone is tucked away and charging – you can still receive and respond to texts without it and on a bigger screen!

There are a number of ways to improve your household through the use of technology – that may never have even occurred to you.  Check out guide we’ve created below for a few of our favorite suggestions.
