    If you've ever tried to keep track of your receipts, you know how quickly it turns into a mess. Some are paper, some digital, and some are screenshots that you'll forget about in your phone's gallery. I've tried everything to get a handle on them. India-specific money management apps.

Turns out, Apple's mapping experience is better than you might think. In fact, in some ways, I actually prefer it over Google Maps.

    If you'd told ten-year-old me that I'd be able to play the latest console games like Resident Evil on a device that fit in my pocket, I'd have refused to believe you.

Pleasantly surprised by the #OnePlus13s launching at ₹54,999. There’s finally a great compact Android flagship option that doesn’t cost crazy money. Some sacrifices on the camera front, but the rest of the package REALLY delivers. Bonus points for the premium in-hand feel XD https://t.co/GgJx8qCDYm
