When I looked at all my subscriptions, I couldn't believe how many I was paying for and not using. Streaming services, apps, memberships, it adds up. That's why I use and recommend Rocket Money. It's a personal finance app that finds and cancels unwanted subscriptions, tracks your spending, and helps lower your bills so you can grow your savings. The best part? You can cancel subscriptions right inside the app with just a few taps. No awkward phone calls or hunting for passwords. With Rocket Money, all your accounts are in one dashboard. Your checking, savings, loans, and investments are all there, so you can see your entire financial picture at a glance. It organizes every transaction automatically, sets budgets, sends real-time alerts for big charges, and gives you easy-to-read reports.

Right after today's Daily Tech Update, I'm going to play for you a great clip from my nationally syndicated radio show. It's called, I know, The Kim Commando Show. Funny how that works. And hey, if you're not subscribed to it wherever you get your podcasts, what are you doing? You're missing out. You need this intel to live in today's world. Is General Motors really planning to remove Apple CarPlay and Android Auto from all their new car dashboards?

General Motors, makers of Chevrolet, Buick, and Cadillac, want to take over your dashboard screen. They will control the data and all that you hear and see, and they'll charge you for using their new in-car subscription service that you're currently getting for free with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. GM's CEO claims their aim is to provide what they call a single integrated system that's safer and, quote, less distracting. Yeah, right. 50% of all new car buyers will not buy a car without CarPlay or Android Auto. So this is one to watch.

Sit back and enjoy. Ever heard of the audience effect? It's when we change our behavior when we think we're being watched. Well, online, we're always being watched. Your internet provider tracks everything you do, even in private mode. That's why I use ExpressVPN. It's the tool I trust to keep my internet connection protected.

You're about ready to get in.

But I want you to start using the app's safety tools. When you hop in your Uber, tap the blue shield. This turns on audio recording and records the entire trip. And then don't miss this for Uber or Lyft. Turn on pin verification. This forces you to give the driver a four-digit code before the ride can even start. And if they don't enter the code or they enter the wrong code, the app won't let them begin the ride.
