DT Daily: Android malware warning, OLED TV review, Taiwan plane crash video

Today on DT Daily: a heads up on some Android malware, the best TV we’ve ever seen and investigators scrutinize that terrifying plane crash footage from Taiwan.

If you’re an Android OS user, we’ve got a quick heads up about three apps to stay away from due to malware concerns. Get all the details here.

We test a lot of TVs here at Digital Trends, and it’s not often we give any of them a 5-star rating. But, there’s a first time for everything. Check out DT A/V editor Caleb Denison’s review of the amazing 65-inch OLED TV from LG.

By now you’ve probably seen the terrifying dashcam footage of a plane crashing into a bridge and then a river in Taiwan. Crash investigators are using the footage to hopefully find a reason for why the plane came down. So far, over 30 people are confirmed dead, but there are also survivors, according to CNN.

Your host today is Jillian Rabe. Watch all the episodes of DT Daily here. You can also listen to our latest podcast here.

worklife episode 26 featured

On this episode of Work/Life, Ciara Pressler, author of Pregame and Game Plan, talks with Greg Nibler about how to remain focused during the constant distractions, chaos, and confusion of the current climate, whether it’s pandemic fatigue, protests, wildfires, the election, or any number of other things out of our control that can take our attention or bog us down.

“There’s a lot going on,” Pressler said, “so how do we focus when there’s so much going on?” The first step of gaining focus, she says, is to acknowledge what’s going on -- not just with the constant barrage of news, but with yourself. “You might not be feeling like working at 100%, and that’s ok!” she says.
