Voici les apps et jeux français!

Apple Canada has created a dedicated home on the App Store for apps en français (in French). It’ll feature collections of apps and games intended for Canada’s francaphone market, and it’s already off to a damn good start with this week’s features:

Apps créées au Québec (apps made in Quebec)
Préparez la rentrée (back to school).
De nouveaux lieux à explorer (new places to explore).
Apps et jeux pour la longue fin de semaine (apps and games for the long, Labor-day weekend).
Jeux créés à Montréal (games created in Montreal)
There, Quebecers will find all their local apps, including Illico (Quebec cable TV), ALDO, Aeroplan, La Presse, YP Yellow Pages Canada, St. Hubert (our delicious rotisserie chicken empire), Radio Canada, and many more.

If you’re in Quebec, want to try something new, and are looking for some recs, Apple has you covered:

Saber’s Edge: Part puzzler, part RPG, all Quebec-made.
Deux Ex: It was made by Square Enix Montré…

Transmission, the popular Mac BitTorrent client that everyone only ever uses to download totally legit open source files, has once again been hijacked to serve malware. Perplexingly, it sounds like it was hijacked in the same way as last time.

ESET research reports:

Last month ESET researchers wrote an article about a new OS X malware called OSX/Keydnap, built to steal the content of OS X’s keychain and maintain a permanent backdoor. At that time of the analysis, it was unclear how victims were exposed to OSX/Keydnap. To quote the original article: ”It could be through attachments in spam messages, downloads from untrusted websites or something else.”

During the last hours, OSX/Keydnap was distributed on a trusted website, which turned out to be ”something else”. It spread via a recompiled version of the otherwise legitimate open source BitTorrent client application Transmission and distributed on their official website.

What’s the maximum amount of iCloud storage you can get? The answer is now 2TB!

Apple has added a new tier to the company’s iCloud storage plans, doubling the maximum amount of data you can upload to their servers to a hefty two terabytes. The new 2TB plan will cost you $19.99 in the United States — and similar amounts internationally — so it isn’t cheap. But it is double the space!

From apple.com:

iCloud Storage Plans

You get 5GB of free storage in iCloud and you have the option to choose a plan for up to 2TB. Upgrade your storage option right from your Mac or iOS device.

5GB: Free

50GB: $0.99/month

200GB: $2.99/month

1TB: $9.99/month

2TB: $19.99/month

No price break on the 2TB plan, alas. But if you have multiple iOS devices to back up, and use multiple services like iCloud Photo Library and iCloud Drive, all that space could come in handy.

With new features already announced for iOS 10 and macOS Sierra, including the ability to store yo…

What are the best GPS trackers for kids?

Updated February 2017: We removed the LG GizmoPal because it has been discontinued, but added LG’s GizmoGadget.

It can be difficult to keep track of your children, and it can also be hard to gage when it’s appropriate to get them a cell phone or something a bit more mature in order to keep in contact with them.

GPS trackers are fantastic, life-saving tools that help keep track of your little ones, so you won’t have to worry about where they are. Just have them wear their GPS tracker like a watch, and the rest is up to your watchful eyes.

Here are a few great options to check out if you’re looking for the best GPS trackers for your kids!
