Daily helpers: mainstream browsers, universal TV remotes that cover hundreds of models, two-factor authentication, printer setup and vending payments. Small apps that keep a household running.
Move and stay across the US: rideshare, bike share, airline boarding passes, hotel bookings and theme-park passes in one chart. The install set for any American itinerary.
Team sports from both sidelines: fantasy leagues, youth-team messaging, game streaming and scoring, MLB ballpark guides and golf GPS. For players, coaches, parents and fantasy managers.
Ways to stay in touch: family location sharing, close-friend photo widgets, couple lock-screen widgets, community courses and anonymous Q&A alongside the mainstream networks. Connection at every distance.
