4 Facebook games you must play this month

Do your friends invite you to play games or send them lives everyday on Facebook? Does that annoy the heck out of you? You have two options here: remove your annoying friend, or start playing Facebook games! You know what they say; if you can’t beat them, join them.
Here are my 4 favorite Facebook games for this month:

Candy Crush Saga
I have talked about it before. This game is still very popular, thanks to the designers and developers at King who are working hard to add more levels and features to the sweetest game ever. Candy Crush Saga has got billions of active users addicted so the candy fever doesn't seem to be ending any time soon.
Mix and match sweets in combinations of three or more to gain points and other bonuses as you progress. Start your game on Facebook or mobile and seamlessly continue your saga between platforms, your game play will be fully synced across all devices.

Criminal Case
For the investigator inside you, play this popular game that has gained more than 47 million likes on its official page.
Join the Police of Grimsborough to solve a series of cases in this captivating hidden object, adventure game. Work crime scenes for clues, interview witnesses and suspects, and carefully analyze evidence to catch the true killers.
I enjoyed playing Criminal Case for months but some of the limitations such as the duration of analyzing certain objects as well as having to refresh Criminal Case’s official page every minute to get free boosters were too much sometimes.
Still, it’s a great game for those who enjoy solving puzzles, finding hidden objects and interviewing suspects!

Castleville Legends
This game was recommended to me by one of my close friends. She can’t stop playing it and maybe you will enjoy it too.
You will get to build a thriving new kingdom and free the trapped heroes from their crystal prisons with your super power.
A great game for magical worlds’ lovers but requires a really fast internet connection.

Papa Pear Saga
Yet another game from King. Also addictive!
Grab your goggles and your helmet, and pre-pear yourself for the adventure of a lifetime with Papa Pear Saga. You can bounce your way around the world of fruity pegs anytime, anywhere. Start your journey on Facebook or mobile and seamlessly continue your saga between platforms – your gameplay will fully sync across all your devices

Apple to update EU browser options, make more apps deletable

  • iPhone maker came under pressure from regulators to make changes after the EU’s sweeping Digital Markets Act took effect on March 7
  • Apple users will be able to select a default browser directly from the choice screen after going through a mandatory list of options

STOCKHOLM: Apple will change how users choose browser options in the European Union, add a dedicated section for changing default apps, and make more apps deletable, the company said on Thursday.
The iPhone maker came under pressure from regulators to make changes after the EU’s sweeping Digital Markets Act took effect on March 7, forcing big tech companies to offer mobile users the ability to select from a list of available web browsers on a “choice screen.”
The new rules require mobile software makers to show the choice screen where users can select a browser, search engine and virtual assistant as they set up their phones, which earlier came with preferred options from Apple and Google.
In an update later this year, Apple users will be able to select a default browser directly from the choice screen after going through a mandatory list of options.
A randomly ordered list of 12 browsers per EU country will be shown to the user with short descriptions, and the chosen one will be automatically downloaded, Apple said. The choice screen will also be available on iPads through an update later this year.
Apple released a previous update in response to the new rules in March, but browser companies criticized the design of its choice screen, and the Commission opened an investigation on March 25 saying it suspected that the measures fell short of effective compliance.
The company said it has been in dialogue with the European Commission and believes the new changes will address regulators’ concerns.
It also plans to introduce a dedicated area for default apps where a user will be able to set defaults for messaging, phone calls, spam filters, password managers and keyboards.
Users will also be able to delete certain Apple-made apps such as App Store, Messages, Camera, Photos and Safari. Only Settings and Phone apps would not be deletable.
