As long as you input the address/coordinates into your google maps app on your phone, it'll give you the directions. To have it "speak" to you the directions, after you had pressed "start" on the directions, on the right upper screen you will see a "speaker" icon. Tap that and you can change it to full speak, alarms only, or mute.
Best calendar app has always been the Google calendar. Lets you put goals, reminders, and event's. You can set any date/time with notes on each event, and it will give you a notification sound/vibration. You can even set multiple notifications such as having a notification 2 days prior to that event. As far as I could look, I didn't see an option to change the notification sound, but it's there, noticeable, and not an annoying sound. Also, the Google calendar app can be placed on your screen as a widget so you can see the upcoming days and events that you have planned without having to actually open up the ap. Pretty neat. That, and it's tied to your gmail and you will get a gmail notification on your phone, assuming you had allowed for gmail notifications. You can also disable the gmail notification and emails from the Google calendar if you wish.
For my question, to those that watch twitch a lot recently, have y'all been seeing ads? Until about 2 days ago, I saw ZERO video ads on twitch, but whabam, I got hit with ads basically once every so often when I pop up twitch to watch someone. I had googled around and it seems these twitch video ads had been there for some time, but I duno why it showed up now. I do use Adblocker which MAY be the reason why I never saw video ads on twitch before 2 days, but I don't know what happened now. I tried some options on Adblocker such as selecting to block everything but I still had video ads. Also, problem with activating all those block, eats up a TON of CPU usage on the PC. If I need another program to block twitch ads, any recommendations? I use Google Chrome btw. Never had this problem with twitch ads until 2 days ago.
