First there were AirPods — then there were AirPods Pro. The two may look similar, but they’re actually very different.

Now, AI is so prevalent that it’s used in many apps. And this one can teach you how to play the piano.

Luckily, there’s SpeakMe. It’s an ingenious, easy-to-use Mac app that converts text to audio and exports those audio files into a shareable format.
