Straight answers for the phone or tablet in your hand

A note from the desk
Most people reach a page like this one mid-problem: a setting has moved, an app will not behave, the battery drains by lunchtime. We write for that moment — one question at a time, in the order you would actually work through it, with the screen you are looking at named plainly.
Nothing here is hurried into print to chase a launch, and nothing is padded to look thorough. If a guide you need is missing, tell us; reader questions are where most of these start.

Behind the guides
Built for the owner, not the spec sheet
My Meego covers phones, tablets, the apps worth installing and the fixes that keep a device useful for another year — reviews and how-tos for people who own the hardware rather than collect it. Everything is laid out to be read once and acted on.
