We've featured no shortage of portable chargers here on Cool Mom Tech, in fact, we probably have a couple in our bags right now, but I think the new Vince Camuto portable chargers are definitely the most stylish ones we've seen. If you'r…

As a diehard Google calendar user and an iPhone lover, I've tried out tons of iPhone calendar apps over the years, none of which were actually made by Google. Until now! Once you download the free Google Calendar app for iPhone , you'll …

When I read "Designed and made by perfectionists" at FeelFeltLt , I knew I had landed at the right Etsy shop. And when I perused through their selection of wool gadget covers, I knew they weren't just tooting their own horn. Each gorgeou…

In an effort to up my photography game this year and well, get an actual hobby instead of laundry, I upgraded from an iPhone camera to shiny DSLR. But no way in you know what I'm going to lug it around in my already too-full tote, nor do…

If you're an Apple fan like me, then you had the Apple Watch Event marked on your calendar with multiple alarms yesterday. But it turns out that the Apple Watch wasn't actually the star of the show. For me, and from the number of tweets …

If you're like me, then you've done the mad scramble on your iPhone to try to find your plane ticket, your calendar, or even a photo of your kids (it's okay, we're all parents here). Well no more scrambling, or a little less at least tha…

I've seen my fair share of wooden iPhone cases , but marble? Well, that's a new twist I'm really digging. Of course, it's not real marble, although that might be a great way to tone your arms. Heh. These marble iPhone cases at Poketo are…

With all these new LEGO sets coming out, like Scooby Doo LEGO and Doctor Who LEGO , I've got total LEGO envy. Why should the kids get all the cool stuff? Well, this new My Old Basement LEGO kit is all mine. Designed by artist Chris McVei…

I cannot tell you how excited I am about the new YouTube Kids app that just launched today. Over the years, we're continually asked how to find great videos for kids on YouTube by parents, and while we've shared various safer YouTube app…

A few months ago I updated my will, and while I was figuring out which child would inherit my prized handbag collection, my smart lawyer asked me about my social media accounts: Who would I want to handle them after my death? What would …

I'm not even kidding when I say that the Beaba Bib'expresso bottle warmer, which totally looks and acts like a coffee maker, saved my butt with my fourth baby back in 2010. I was traveling a lot and doing the breastfeeding, pumping, form…

I can still remember my first record player, and let me assure you it looked nothing like this gorgeous Crosley USB record player that I'm sure would make your favorite music lover swoon on Valentine's Day. Available exclusively at Urban…

I'm much more of a silly card kind of girl than sentimental, which is why I'm digging these funny Valentine's Day cards that are made just for tech lovers, social media users, or well, anybody who owns a smartphone. Isn't that everyone t…

We've featured all sorts of stylish USB jewelry here on Cool Mom Tech before, and really, it's a pretty awesome gift idea (if we do say so ourselves). These blinged-out pieces from Swarovski definitely say "I love you" in a fantastically…

It's true that Tinder has a reputation for being a hook-up app, but hey, people have met on it and fallen in love, or at least, heavy like. And if that's you, well this Valentine's Day card is for you Internet lovebirds. This hilarious c…

One of the reasons I love Twitter is because it really does give you the most up-to-date real time updates, and with the huge impending snowstorm 2015 headed my way, it makes it super helpful to stay on top of the weather. Parent transla…

I'm not sure if I should be proud or embarrassed by my selfie technique, which involves doing a 360 degree turn to find the best light. But with Vany , (yes, as in "vain") which is a new ring light for smartphones, I just might be able t…

If you're like me, then you've done the lick-your-hand or breathe-into-your-hand or whatever other weird, gross things to figure out if you have bad breath. But now instead of popping some gum in your mouth, or you know, brushing your te…

We get asked how to print Instagram photos all the time here on Cool Mom Tech, but of all the ideas we've featured before, you've never been able to apply them to your arm. Or chest. Or...well, you get the idea. Meet Picattoo , a new ser…

For those of us with slippery fingers, a raised keyboard on our iPhones like the Typo2 keyboard case can be a huge sanity saver. But at CES 2015 earlier this month, they previewed their new iPad Air and iPad Mini keyboard case, which can…

I feel like everyone around me has the new iPhone 6, while I'm stuck using my little iPhone 5S. Man, it seems so small! If you're like what seems like all of my friends and are sporting a fancy new phone (lucky you!), here are some cool …

When I spotted the free 1+2=3 app in the App Store and it asked me if I was smarter than a first grader, my interest was definitely piqued. And well, after playing pretty much non-stop for the past couple of days, I see why it gets such …

I'm not going to lie that when I heard the news about The Simpsons on Minecraft Xbox, I got more than a little excited. Because even though my kids are completely obsessed with Minecraft , if there was anything that might get me actually…

I can barely keep track of the TV remote control, let alone the one for the cable box, the Blu-Ray, the ... you get where I'm going, which is why I was pretty enthralled with Pronto at CES 2015, a gadget and app that lets you control all…
