With more and more people living and working in other countries these days the problem of sending cross border international payments from one country to the next is fraught with difficulties. With the world seemingly getting smaller and smaller, you'd think that the banking system would have accommodated the 'digital nomads' as they've been called. To a certain extent they have. Companies like PayPal, Western Union and the banks themselves provide a good service but their exchange rates, commissions and hidden fees can work out extremely expensive and there is often a few days delay ...  More

We here at the FeedMyApp offices have reviewed plenty of time management apps over the last few years. All offer something a little different and many get better with the onset of new technology and new methods. The fact is, over time, the apps get more and more efficient, offer even better features and are more user friendly. Given the difficult times we are going through at the moment it seems obvious that businesses are going to have to get much better organised and must be able to plan their time better in order to return things to the way they were and to ensure that their company ...  More

Like it or not, privacy in online communication is one of the more important issues that we have to face up to in the 2020's. Just to give you an idea, all you need to do is to turn on your TV and you'll see multiple adverts offering one VPN deal or another to keep your online communications safe. Governments themselves also seem to have reservations with several not wanting a company like Huawei to oversee their 5G rollout over security fears. Whether these concerns are valid or not is unclear but, the fact is, the doubt is there. Because of these worries, many are searching for ...  More

Keeping track of your billable hours has long been the bane of many businesses. You can pretty much guarantee that at least one of your team members will underestimate or lose track of the amount of time that they've spent on a project.  Missing out on those hours means less billable time that can be charged to a customer. There have been plenty of time management apps on the market but most require team members to 'clock on and clock off.' Wouldn't it be better if there was an app that logged on and off jobs automatically so your team can concentrate on the job in hand without ...  More

If you still haven’t worked out what do with your life now that there are no new episodes of Game Of Thrones to watch on tv it might be time to throw your energy into a good old war game on your smartphone. While you wont see too many Mothers of Dragons or height challenged heroes like Tyrion Lannister here, we think we have found a game that will keep you occupied while you sit around in isolation twiddling your fingers and looking for inspiration.  More

Running a business in 2020 is very different to the way it was run not so many years back. While the intended outcome is much the same, the way that we get there has changed dramatically. These days, not only do companies have offices and teams all over the country, they now have them all over the world with many different time zones to negotiate. Good communication and collaboration have never been more important to guide your teams and keep up with what is going on in far flung territories as well as on the home front. Realistically, the only way to keep everything under control is by ...  More

Dementia is part of a group of diseases that effects the way people can think and interact with each other and can be linked to disease and damage to the brain. At any given time it's thought that there are around 50 million people sufferers with 10 million newly diagnosed each year. It's mostly found in the elderly with the initial symptoms being short-term memory loss and with speech and motor skills being affected. Over time it can also affect one's thinking skills, orientation, memory, language, comprehension, calculation, judgement and learning capacity. The most common form of the ...  More

You know what they say: when it comes to life it's different strokes for different folks. The same can probably be said for the games we play on our smartphones as we travel to and from work to keep us amused. Some people want games like Candy Crush to get them through their morning commute while others want things like Angry Birds or fighting games. Some want complicated and some want simple. I see a squillion different games being played when I peer over a fellow traveler's shoulder every morning on the bus.   More

It was just the other day that the American President, while congratulating the Super Bowl winners - the Kansas City Chiefs, told the world that they've made the whole of Kansas proud. That's very nice except that the Chiefs play in Missouri rather than in Kansas. A simple mistake that anyone could make but it just goes to show that sometimes our geographical knowledge isn't all it could be. I guess that, while we are exposed more than ever to news from all over the world, we don't take a lot of it in. Looking at a map myself the other day I was astounded that Kazakhstan is actually bigger ...  More

It's a sad state of affairs but only 20% of students in America learn a foreign language. However, in Europe, that figure sits at over 90%! In Australia, while 73% of households identified as English speaking, only 21% can speak a different language while in Canada, of course, there are two official languages - English and French. Naturally, as the world becomes more multicultural, the figures for language learning continue to rise. There are a number of reasons for that. There are more people traveling between countries these days than ever before, more people studying and there are more ...  More
