How To See Passwords for Wi-Fi Networks You've Connected Your Android Device To

    The trouble comes when you want to actually see the password for one of the networks you connected to. Perhaps you want to connect a second device to a saved Wi-Fi access point, or maybe you're with a friend who wants to log in to the same hotspot. But without a way to access the actual passwords that your device has stored, you're out of luck. Thankfully, there are ways around this. If you're on Android 10 or higher, you can see Wi-Fi passwords right from your phone's settings. However, if you're on Android 9.0 Pie or lower, note that you will need to be rooted. Method : Android 10 & Up This first method doesn't require root or even an extra app. But it does require that your phone is running Android 10 or higher. If your phone has been updated to this version, I'll outline a quick and easy way to see saved Wi-Fi passwords below. Step 1: Locate Wi-Fi Settings  Currently, there is only one flavor of Android 10, and that's

How To See Your Android Notifications on Your Windows PC?

  Requirements ▪️PC running Windows 10 April 2018 Update or later ▪️Android phone running Android 7.0 Nougat or newer ⭕️ Step 1: Install 'Your Phone Companion' on the Phone 👉 First, install Microsoft's "Your Phone Companion" app on your Android device. You can download the app from the Play Store. ⭕️ Step 2: Install 'Your Phone' on the PC   Note : If your computer is running Windows 10 October 2018 Update or newer, this app is already preinstalled, so you can skip this step.  Now, open the Microsoft Store app on your Windows PC and search for "Your Phone." Select the app from the list and choose "Install" to install it on your computer. If you haven't already, you will be prompted to sign in to your Microsoft Account (if you don't have one, you will need to create one).  When you open the app, you'll be asked for a mobile phone number. This isn't necessary, as Microsoft uses it to send a text message to your phone with

SELF TRACKING DRONE. How it works?

The Zano flying camera is a great tool for snapping pictures of yourself—and it’s far more sophisticated than a selfie stick. The $300 quadcopter uses a suite of instruments to dodge obstacles while autonomously tracking its subjects whether they’re walking through an office, biking down mountain trails, or even diving off cliffs. Lead engineer Ivan Reedman of Torquing Group advises against underestimating Zano’s abilities: “It’s not just a selfie drone.” REMOTE CONTROL  Zano connects to a user’s smartphone via Wi-Fi. Users can pilot the drone using a virtual joystick on their smartphone screen; they can adjust its altitude via a simple slide bar; and they can instruct the camera to stay fixed or rotate to capture different views. TRACKING OUTDOORS  In follow mode, a user sets the drone to trail the phone at a fixed distance. Outdoors, Zano establishes and sustains its position relative to the phone using GPS, gyroscopes, accelerometers, sonar, and a ba

Three Ways to Make a Star on Earth

Massive magnets to confine plasma  This year, construction will begin on the 35-nation megaproject ITER, located in France. A doughnut-shaped, powerplant-size reactor, ITER will contain a fusion reaction within a magnetic field and siphon off energy through its metal walls. Scientists hope to have a test-scale reaction running within the next decade. A reflective wall in  a compact reactor In Lockheed’s design, a row of magnetic coils create a reflective wall to contain the plasma. The company’s small-scale reactor allows scientists to tweak experimental setups more nimbly than they can with a reactor the size of ITER. Lockheed says it has already fired up its reactor 200 times but won’t release any data—so whether those attempts were successful remains to be seen. If they were, well, we may all be driving literal Ford Fusions before long. A micro-explosion ignited by lasers At the National Ignition Facility,  scientists approach fusion differently. They fi
