[mai mult...]How to Turn On “Do Not Disturb” While Driving on Google Pixel
Distracted driving is a big problem, and phones only make it worse. Wouldn’t it be nice if you could automatically block unimportant notifications while you’re driving? If you have a Google Pixel phone, you can do exactly that.
“Do Not Disturb” can be set up to block notifications automatically for certain situations. This saves you from having to remember to turn it on and off all the time. The Pixel 3 and newer Pixel phones can also set it up to automatically turn on while you’re driving. Before you set up Do Not Disturb to run while you’re driving, you’ll need to decide what it actually does when it’s enabled. Turning on Do Not Disturb isn’t very useful if you don’t customize it.
Do Not Disturb includes a number of useful options so that you can fine-tune who and what will be able to get ahold of you when your phone is muted. Be sure to read our full guide on Do Not Disturb before enabling the driving feature.
[mai mult...]How to Change Your Facebook Birthday After Exceeding the Limit
If Facebook has blocked you from changing your birthday for attempting to do so too many times, there’s still a way to request that the site change your birthday.
- This is possible with a form that Facebook has put up on its site. Using this form, you can send Facebook a request to modify the birthday in your profile. It’s then up to Facebook to accept or reject your request.
- To put in a birthday change request, open a web browser on your Windows, Mac, Linux, or Chromebook computer and head over to the Request a Birthday Change web page on the Facebook site.
- On that web page, use the drop-down menus under the “Date of Birth” section to specify your new birthday. Then, click the “Reason for This Change” drop-down menu and choose why you’re changing your birthday.
