2018 marks the 50th anniversary of the US Open tennis tournament, and Apple TV owners can catch all the action in high definition without a cable subscription. To accomplish this, you'll need to know the US Open TV schedule for 2018 and which online streaming services offer the best coverage from those networks. Let's get started learning how to live stream the 2018 US Open to our Apple TVs in advance of the tournament.

If you love podcasts, and also love iPhones, iPads, and other Apple devices, you've probably heard that you can sync your podcasts across your devices. Once your devices are synced you can use the Podcasts app to listen to a podcast on your iPhone, then pick it up right where you left off on your iPad. Syncing across Apple devices includes not only podcast playback positions but also your podcast subscriptions and stations. If this sounds like podcast heaven to you, follow the steps below to sync up your devices and start listening.

The iPhone has revolutionized gaming, but there are still genres of games that work best with a controller. And GameSir has a nice alternative to also buying a Nintendo Switch or other device. The GameSir G5 ($69.99) was originally on Kickstarter; and while I normally don't promote crowdfunded projects because of the uncertainty, the GameSir has already been funded. And as the name of the G5 suggests, they've produced almost a half dozen different models, and I was able to try the GameSir G5 with my own hands.

I don't know about you, but before I purchase an app in the App Store, I like to read a few reviews to see how other customers have liked (or disliked) their purchase. Now iOS 11.3 makes it easier than ever before to sort app reviews so customers can find the information they want about individual apps. Let's get started learning how to find and sort user-submitted reviews in the App Store on our iPhones, so we have more information before purchasing apps. 

The iPhone's Health app has long been useful for tracking all sorts of medical data, but iOS 11.3 is bringing even more functionality to your Health app. Medical records such as lab results, immunizations, and more can now be organized and shared with a new feature of the Health app, called Health Records. Rather than emailing scanned medical records to healthcare providers, doctors, and hospitals, patients can use Health Records to forward their information directly from their iPhones. Let's get started learning how to set up Health Records and view your medical history, right from your iPhone.
