If you’re a big fan of Lifetime TV, you simple need to get your hands on the network’s official app for Windows 8.1.

From popular shows like Devious Maids to Project Runway, you can get your fix for all of these Lifetime TV staples by simply schlepping on over to the Windows app store and downloading the Lifetime TV app for free. Just open the store, and search for “Lifetime.” It should be the first result that comes up.

As the app’s official description in the Windows store states, you aren’t just limited to TV shows. You can also watch over 25 full-length movies with the app. Plus, you can set up a customized watch list, and you also get access to Lifetime TV’s full schedule. You can also watch video previews, as well as behind-the-scenes clips. Perhaps best of all, new movies, TV shows, preview and behind-the-scenes videos are added every single day.

When you click on a movie or a TV show in the app, you’re provided with a brief description of what it’s about. This is useful, because you never have to go into something blindly, and perhaps spend a few minutes watching something just to figure out if you like it or not. Clicking on a movie will also tell you how long it is, so you can properly gauge whether you can start and finish it in a single sitting, or whether you’ll need to pick it up later at a different time. You’ll also get an original airdate, which tells you whether the movie was recently made, or whether it was released a while ago.

If you’re a Lifetime TV addict, you should grab this app before they start charging for it!

Get this HP 17-inch laptop for $300 instead of the usual $660
The HP 17-inch laptop against a white background.

Seventeen-inch laptops toe the line between portability and size, making them more expensive than your average laptop. Some of the best 17-inch laptops can easily cost you thousands of dollars. Luckily, there HP has come up with a very budget-friendly solution in the form of the HP laptop 17z, and while it's not one of the best laptops on the market, it is an excellent budget-oriented choice for a 17-inch laptop. Even better, HP currently discounts it down to $300 from the usual $560 price tag, which is a significant $260 off.

Why you should buy the HP Laptop 17z
As the name implies, the HP Laptop 17z has a large 17.3-inch screen running a 1920 x 1080 resolution and can hit a peak brightness of 250nits, which isn't a lot, but it's good enough for a well-lit room, especially with its anti-glare coating. You could potentially upgrade to a touch version of the screen for $30, but since it would knock the resolution down to 1600 x 900, it's not worth it, especially with a larger 17.3-inch screen. What will be worth the upgrade is taking the networking option from the Wi-Fi5 and Bluetooth 4.2 standard up to the Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5 standard for an extra $20, which will make sure your laptop has a strong connection for streaming or doing online meetings and will be future-proof for at least the next 5-6 years.
