Every week, I like to share simple, practical advice that anyone can use. No tech jargon, no complicated steps. Just easy tips that help you get the most out of your iPhone, iPad, Mac, or Apple Watch.

What is a Good Tech Tip?

Good tech tips are simple, actionable, and solve real problems. They don’t require you to be a tech expert or spend hours figuring things out. Instead, they help you do everyday tasks faster or protect your devices better.

For instance, a good tip might be to enable two-factor authentication on your Apple ID. It adds an extra layer of security without much hassle. Or, it could be something like using Focus mode to reduce distractions during work or family time.

A good tip always answers the question: How can this make my life easier or safer? If it doesn’t, it’s probably not worth your time.

Easy Ways to Speed Up Your Mac

Is your Mac feeling a bit sluggish? Don’t worry, it happens to all of us. Here are some quick fixes you can try today:

• Close unused apps: Too many open apps slow things down.

• Clear your desktop: A cluttered desktop can affect performance.

• Check your startup items: Go to System Preferences > Users & Groups > Login Items and remove anything you don’t need starting automatically.

• Update macOS: Keeping your system updated ensures you have the latest performance improvements.

  
  

If you want to go deeper, try running Disk Utility to repair your disk or use Activity Monitor to see which apps are hogging resources.
