Train with the kids
Nike Training Club has launched a free children’s program led by master trainer Brian Nunez, who curated the program with his daughter, Bella. If you need to get the kids moving this summer, look no further.
Challenge your brain
Every year, the STEM education app Brilliant hosts a free 100-Day Summer Challenge, and this year’s edition launches today. Think of it as a massive brain game: People from around the world unpack tricky, twisty puzzles—then talk about them in the app’s lively community discussions.
Wake up with your watch
Great news for early risers who don’t want to disturb others: The Sleep Cycle app for Apple Watch wakes to a gentle vibration on your wrist instead of a blaring sound. Give the app a 30-minute wake-up window and it’ll monitor your sleep rhythms to determine the optimal time to quietly buzz you awake.
Play with friends
Simple, timeless, and a blast to shout at the top of your lungs, Yahtzee With Buddies is a mobile reinvention of the dice-rolling classic that streamlines the scorekeeping and adds playful power-ups. Running low? Join a “family”—the Yahtzee version of an online team—and see if your pals can spare a few.
Play solo
Ursula, Simba, Darkwing Duck, Jafar, and Buzz Lightyear—together at last! Dive into the magical mashup Disney Sorcerer’s Arena and guide a team of characters through fun tactical battles. Level up your champions and collect new ones, each with unique abilities (like Ariel’s lifesaving healing blast).
