Pixar Animation Studios has an unusual logo. The basic logo is the word “Pixar.” But sometimes, an animated lamp named Luxo Jr. hops into the frame and jumps on the letter “i.” The lap exudes personality and represents Pixar’s ability to turn any object into a...
It may seem like a paradox, but notifications are both the best and the worst part of owning an Android device. On the one hand, notifications let us stay on top of important incoming info — be it a critical Slack message, a personal family text, or an email from a...
