    Razr is back, promo code hacks that work & Windows security gets a boost (172, May 2, 2026)

    Rich DeMuro brings you the latest tech news, helpful tips, gadget reviews, and more - plus interviews with industry experts - all in this weekly show. Rich talked about motorola’s launch event in Hollywood for new razr flip and foldable phones. Here’s the latest edition of the Rich On Tech Newsletter! Bill in Los Angeles is worried about a virus on his iPhone. Rich explains it’s most likely notification spam, not an actual virus. To clean things up: clear your browser history, delete any apps you don’t recognize or no longer use, and head into Settings > Privacy & Security to review which apps have access to your location, camera, microphone, and more. Rich mentioned the app iVerify Basic, which can scan your iPhone or Android for any signs of spyware. Cathy in Chicago wants to know Rich’s favorite to-do app on Android. Rich’s pick is Microsoft To Do, because it gives you a fresh start each day. Dennis in Marina Del Rey wants a backup battery for power outages, specifically one that runs on regular AA batteries. Rich found an option on Amazon that fits the bill, and also recommends stepping up to a portable power station from brands like EcoFlow, Jackery, or Goal Zero, which can also be paired with solar panels for off-grid charging. Uber now lets you book hotels directly in the app, and Uber One members can score some solid discounts and credits when they do. Chime in Sherman Oaks is blind and voices his concern that not every streaming app has strong accessibility features built in. Bill in Little Rock wants to know if it’s safe to click links in text messages. Fubo has added Spectrum SportsNet LA for the 2026 season, meaning subscribers can now watch Dodgers games through the service. Airlines are cracking down on portable chargers. Here’s what you need to know. Barbara in Topanga is looking for music software that lets her write with an Apple Pencil. Rich recommends checking out StaffPad, Fender Notion, and forScore. Jimmy Dohenny from SimplyCodes reveals how to find the best online deals, avoid bad coupon codes, and shop smarter year-round. Rich mentioned the Hooray for Baldywood newsletter as a great resource for movie suggestions. Microsoft says you may not need third-party antivirus anymore. What’s already built into Windows is probably enough to keep you protected. Debbie in Wisconsin wants to know if she can retrieve deleted or expired voicemails. Rich recommends opening the Visual Voicemail app to see if they’re still there, and using the share icon to save them to yourself before they disappear. If you want longer retention going forward, consider signing up for a third-party service like YouMail or Google Voice. Rich mentioned some helpful new apps and websites: Dual Shot Recorder, Gradient Weather, Memo AI, Alpenglow, US National Parkfinder, Clove, NASA Your Name in Landsat, and Blank Page. JubileeTV CEO Ashish Aggarwal explains how your TV can become a simple, powerful tool to monitor, connect with, and care for aging loved ones at home. Call 1-888-RICH-101 (1-888-742-4101) to join in!

    Best apps to organize bookmarks, iPhone accessibility tools & risks of grey market streaming boxes (Episode 171, April 25, 2026 - Best of)

    • Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra first impressions: The new Ultra keeps a familiar look but improves comfort with a lighter aluminum build, faster charging, and better low-light camera performance. AI features are everywhere, but the standout is a built-in privacy display that limits side-angle viewing. • AI-powered phone features expand: Samsung leans heavily on AI for photo editing, call screening, and “agentic” tasks like booking rides or ordering food. Some features feel early, but the direction is toward phones doing more actions on your behalf. • T-Mobile’s live call translation: A new network-level feature will translate phone calls in real time across 50+ languages with no app required. Only one person on the call needs to be a T-Mobile customer, making it broadly useful. • Credit card fee settlement payouts: Small businesses that accepted Visa or Mastercard between 2004 and 2019 may receive payments from a $5.5 billion settlement over swipe fees. Checks are starting to go out now. • Debit vs credit card debate: Using tap-to-pay or chip is safest since it generates one-time numbers. Credit cards offer better fraud protection, while debit cards can help with budgeting but expose your actual funds. • Streaming TV gets more fragmented: Services like YouTube TV are testing cheaper genre-based bundles (sports, news, entertainment), but the ecosystem remains confusing. Consumers must mix and match carefully to avoid overspending. • Local sports streaming options grow: MLB and regional networks now offer team-specific streaming packages, letting fans watch local teams without a full cable bundle, though pricing can still add up. • Risks of grey market streaming boxes: “Fully loaded” boxes offering free TV are often illegal, unreliable, and may expose users to malware. Stick to legitimate platforms like Roku, Fire TV, or Apple TV. • Accessibility challenges and solutions: Callers highlighted issues with voice assistants misfiring and navigating smartphones without vision. Built-in tools like VoiceOver on iPhone and accessibility settings on Android can help, but setup often requires guidance. • Default app confusion on Windows: If PDFs open in Microsoft Word instead of a reader, it’s due to default app settings. Changing the default to a proper PDF viewer like Adobe Acrobat fixes the issue. • Waymo robotaxis and loss of human interaction: Autonomous rides are efficient but remove the human element, like asking drivers for local tips. Technology is increasingly transactional, reducing shared experiences. • New apps worth trying:– Acme Weather offers hyper-local forecasts, rainbow alerts, and multiple prediction models.– Dispo creates retro-style photos with delayed “film development” for a nostalgic effect. • Electric vehicle recall warning: Volvo is recalling thousands of EX30 EVs over potential battery fire risks, advising owners to limit charging and avoid parking near structures until fixed. • Bookmarking and link-saving tools: Apps like Raindrop.io and Plinky help organize saved websites with tags and cross-device syncing, offering better alternatives to traditional browser bookmarks. • Smart printer recommendations: Brother printers, especially ink tank models, are praised for reliability and low ink costs. Ink tanks are becoming more popular as a cost-effective alternative to cartridges. • Android luggage tracking update: Google’s Find Hub lets users share a tracker’s live location with airlines, similar to Apple AirTag sharing, helping recover lost bags more efficiently. • AI photo editing gets powerful: Tools like Google Gemini can now realistically add or remove people from photos with simple prompts, making advanced edits accessible to anyone. • AI personal productivity tools: Gemini can generate custom tools like link organizers or image resizers on demand, showing how AI is moving toward personalized software creation. • Deep personality AI test trend: A new app generates detailed psychological profiles and even lets users create a chatbot based on their personality. It’s insightful but raises privacy considerations. • Free iPhone cleanup app tip: Clever Cleaner is recommended for removing duplicate photos and freeing storage without ads or subscriptions, unlike many competing apps.

Rich mentioned he’s a fan of Whisper Memos, which works seamlessly with both the Apple Watch and iPhone. Peter in Massachusetts just got a new Samsung A16, but if his Mint Mobile service isn’t working, he likely needs to manually update his Access Point Name (APN) settings to get his data and messaging up and running.

Steve in Murietta wants to reduce his digital footprint and stop spam calls, so Rich recommends using Google’s "Results about you" tool to remove personal info from search results and check out this Consumer Reports article.

    Samsung Messages getting retired, new tool reveals what’s slowing your internet & Sonos makes a comeback (Episode 169, April 11, 2026)

    Americans lost nearly $21 billion to cybercrime last year, a 26% increase from the year before. Investment scams, crypto scams, and phishing remain the most common ways criminals target victims. Samsung Messages is going away this summer. You’ll need to switch to Google Messages, which should make texting more secure and improve messaging between iPhone and Android. Susan in Orange County is heading to China. Rich recommends bringing a VPN, a portable power bank, messaging apps like WhatsApp or Telegram, and translation tools such as Google Translate, Apple Translate, or Gemini. For connectivity, he suggests using an eSIM from Airalo. Older Kindle models are losing support in May. Here’s the list of affected devices and how to check yours. Vic in Sherman Oaks asks whether a smartphone can be remotely wiped even if it’s offline. Bob emails asking if you can see speed limits and hazards in Apple Maps or Google Maps on CarPlay without entering a destination. Rich says Google Maps used to offer a Drive Mode, but it appears to be gone. For now, your best option is Waze, which shows that info even without a destination set. YouTube Premium is raising prices by $1 to $4 a month. Marianne in Los Angeles says her copper landline is being phased out. Rich suggests alternatives like Ooma, Ooma LTE, or Starlink. Inc. has a great article on what businesses can do right now to avoid the same fate as the massive LAPD data breach. Yolanda says when she clicks links in spam text messages, she gets an “Error 400.” Rich says don’t click those links. Instead, reply with “STOP,” “unsubscribe,” or just delete the message. Better yet, enable spam text filtering on your iPhone or Android. Connie writes in that she’s buying an iPhone from Apple as a gift for her daughter and asks whether to choose Verizon or “connect to any carrier later.” Rich recommends choosing “connect to any carrier later,” which gives you an unlocked phone. Her daughter can then activate it on Verizon once she receives it. Fabrice says changes in his Outlook email aren’t showing up in Gmail. What’s going on? Rich says it’s likely set up using POP3 instead of IMAP. Alex is looking for a truly free VPN with no upfront cost. Rich recommends Proton VPN and Windscribe as solid options. Just know they come with limitations. You won’t get all the premium features, but they’ll get the job done. Doug Suttles, co-creator of Speedtest, explains why your internet speed isn’t the full story and how his new tool called Orb reveals what’s actually slowing your connection. Martino called in to say he loves MagicJack and recommends it as a solid alternative to a traditional landline. Spectrum is finally launching a Fire TV app, arriving April 15. Mark in Torrance is looking for a way to organize and preserve 40 years of photography. Rich recommends options like Google Photos albums, Dropbox, or a dedicated service such as SmugMug. Waymo cars are now scanning roads for potholes and reporting that to both cities and ways. Rich mentioned how to turn on voice isolation on the iPhone. Robert says when he texts himself on his Android phone, it doesn’t come through. Clearing the cache for the Messaging app might help - just be careful not to clear the data, that will delete your messages. Rich mentioned Email me apps for iPhone and Android. Ross Barbour of Sonos explains how the latest Sonos speakers make whole-home audio more flexible, portable, and easier to expand. Mentioned: Sonos Play and Sonos Era 100 SL. Rich DeMuro brings you the latest tech news, helpful tips, gadget reviews, and more - plus interviews with industry experts - all in this weekly show.

    Stop AI training on your data, Samsung gets AirDrop & live captions for your phone (Episode 167, March 28, 2026)

    The FCC is moving to ban Wi-Fi routers made by foreign companies - here’s what it means for the gear in your home. Netflix is raising prices again - here’s what you’ll be paying and when the changes kick in. Samsung Galaxy phones can now AirDrop files directly to iPhones, marking a major milestone in Android and Apple interoperability. Jason from Michigan lost access to his Meta account, and Rich walks him through two recovery options including the Meta recovery page and paying for Meta Verified. Most AI apps train on your data by default unless you opt out, and Rich walks you through exactly how to turn that off on ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini. Nancy wants to back up her MacBook Air, and Rich recommends a Western Digital hard drive paired with Apple’s built-in Time Machine software to get it done. Ron from Oregon has trouble with touchscreens not recognizing his fingertips, and Rich recommends Samsung’s touch sensitivity setting plus several accessible phone options including dumbwireless.com, Kapsys, and the BlindShell phone. Marty from Michigan wants to know the best way to move everything to a new PC, and Rich says skip PCMover and instead transfer your important files with a hard drive and reinstall your apps fresh. iOS 26.4 is out with a solid batch of updates including a keyboard bug fix, upcoming concert info in Apple Music, expanded translation, and Stolen Device Protection now turned on by default. Catherine is looking for ways to caption audio on a smartphone for her friend, and Rich walks her through the built-in live captioning options available on iPhone and Android. Catherine is looking for a disposable camera app for a wedding or event, and Rich recommends Lense.app, while also mentioning Dispo as an option though it may not be the best fit for this use case. Olivia Yokubonis, digital wellness creator and anti-doomscrolling advocate, will discuss how social media apps are designed to keep you hooked and simple ways people can take back control of their screen time using tools like the Opal. Patricia from Huntington Beach is developing an app and wants to add new features, and Rich recommends AI coding tools ranging from Gemini Canvas and Claude Code to the more advanced Cursor. Virginia from New York has a new computer and monitor with no audio, and Rich says the simple fix is picking up a pair of inexpensive computer speakers. Rob in Yorba Linda wants to wipe a Samsung phone his mom forgot the passcode on. Rich suggests trying recovery mode - hold down the right button combination at startup to boot into recovery, then select the option to wipe the device. On iPhone, there’s a similar feature called Restore - plug the phone into a computer with iTunes or Finder, put it in recovery mode, and you can wipe and restore it from there without needing the passcode. Pablo in Gardena says his phone has been stuck on SOS mode. Rich suggests starting simple - reseat the SIM card. If that doesn’t work, sign up for a cheap plan through Tello and try downloading an eSIM to help narrow down whether it’s a phone problem or a carrier issue. Worst case, a factory reset may be the fix. Fire TV is getting its first major interface overhaul since 2020. Amazon is rolling out a big upgrade to the home screen and overall experience — keep an eye out if you have a supported device, as it should arrive automatically. Dark Sword is now available for free online. Make sure your iPhone is updated to the latest version to protect yourself from the latest security vulnerabilities. Bob in Charlotte wants links to open directly in Gmail instead of the browser. Here’s how to make it happen: go to Gmail.com in Chrome, then click the settings icon next to the URL bar and look for the option that says “Open supported links” — select Gmail from there and email links will open in the app going forward. Steve in Placentia wants to know how to automatically start up programs on his Windows computer. Rich mentioned two helpful travel websites: Flighty’s Airport Disruptions page and Terminal Watch. Nintendo Switch games are going to cost more if you want the physical cartridge. SEV recommends HWiNFO as a great free program for checking the temperature of your CPU, motherboard, and drives. Maggie wrote in and said she loves the Amazon UnSponsor Chrome Extension I mentioned.
