How to Stop Music Pausing for Notifications [Android]

In this video, I'll be showing you how to set up a Tasker profile that automatically enables "Do Not Disturb" mode when you're listening to music or streaming video.
When a notification comes through and you're listening to music, the music stops for a few seconds. This is annoying, so I put together a fairly simple Tasker profile that disables notifications while you're using any media app, then automatically turns them back on when you leave the media app.

In this video, Ill be showing you how to set up a new app called DNS66 that uses Androids VPN system to block ads system-wide without using root.
Unlike similar VPN ad-blockers, this one only blocks at the DNS level, so it has a very minimal battery footprint. On top of that, its completely free and open-source to boot, so you know your data is safe.

![Mute Excessive Group Chat Notifications on Android [How-To]
How to Silence Multiple Notifications at Once [Android 5.0+]
Full Tutorial: http://bit.ly/pipedown
Subscribe to Gadget Hacks: http://goo.gl/XagVI
In this video, Ill be showing you a new app called Mutifier that automatically silences excessive notifications when you receive more than one in a brief period of time.
This is perfect for those group chats you have going, when one person sends a picture, then 10 other people chime in with quick one-word responses. Youll still hear the first notification, and youll still actually get all of the notifications, but all of the extras after the first one will be muted automatically.

![Cast Almost Any Web Video from Android to Chromecast or Fire TV [How-To]
How to Cast Videos That Chrome & Other Browsers Cant
Full Tutorial: http://bit.ly/CastController

In this video, Ill be showing you a Chromecast-enabled Android browser called Cast Controller that lets you cast videos that other browsers cant handle.
Chrome lets you cast some videos, but a lot of websites explicitly prevent this on mobile, and others just dont work. This browser will cast pretty much any video that you can play on your smartphone, and it even works with Fire TV, so this is a great way to cast Instagram videos, for example.

![Send Android SMS & MMS Using Apple Messages on Your Mac [How-To]
How to Send & Receive Android Texts from Your Mac [Giveaway]
Full Tutorial: http://bit.ly/andoridmac
Subscribe to Gadget Hacks: http://goo.gl/XagVI
In this video, Ill be showing you how to set up an app called SMS for Apple Messages that lets you send and receive SMS or MMS messages using the Apple Messages app on your Mac.
The messages use your regular carrier number, so its just like the experience you would get if you had an iPhone paired with your Mac (minus iMessage, of course). And now, thanks to a few big updates to this awesome app, MMS and group messages are now supported, as well as end-to-end encryption.
Were also doing a promotional giveaway for the pro service offered by SMS for Apple Messages. Normally, you can send up to 5 messages per day with the free version, but its $4.99/year or $29.99/month to get unlimited access to this service. However, with the promo code you can find at my full tutorial, youll only have to pay $1.99 for the full year to get premium access.
