MFi hearing devices usually have additional settings (it depends on the manufacturer) and can be configured from Control Center (with Hearing added) or through the Accessibility shortcut, which you can turn on and configure in Settings > Accessibility > Accessibility Shortcut. To use hearing aids with Android phones, pair them like any other Bluetooth device…
Evidently, using a wagon to transport young children is the No. 1 mistake parents make when it comes to kids and wagons, according to Alisa Baer, MD, a pediatrician and co-founder of The Car Seat Lady. “The really big thing is to make sure that what you’re using is a wagon specifically designed to transport…
SPF—or sun protection factor—is a measure of how well a sunscreen guards against sunburn. The SPF number is usually explained as the amount of time it takes for skin to turn red while wearing sunscreen. For instance, if you burn in 15 minutes, an SPF 30 would theoretically give you 450 minutes of protection from…
Below we present the best hybrid and PHEV SUVs that cost $35,000 to $45,000 that we’ve tested, ranked by their Overall Score, which factors in road-test performance, owner satisfaction, predicted reliability, and safety. Overall Scores change over time as new information, such as reliability data, becomes available. The model pages always reflect our latest ratings. All of these models…

Even among the used cars we recommend, there can be stinkers because of a bad day at the factory or a neglectful owner who didn’t keep…
Sweet dreams start with soft sheets. Or, at the very least, great sheets mean I sleep better, whether my dreams are peaceful or a hallucination of failed superpowers and the internet. There’s a lot to navigate when buying sheets for your bed, from understanding percale and sateen to thread counts. But the right set of…
Think of an electric burner as a high-speed rail train. They’re slow to get going, but once they’re moving, they’re really moving. And they’re equally sluggish when it’s time to slow down again. A gas burner is more like a regular car. It’s fairly peppy off the line, but it maxes out at a more…
