eBay has become one of the latest apps to support the new app shortcuts in Android Nougat 7.1.  The update was release last week and most users will have it by now.  If you have a Nexus device or Pixel device that is running Nougat 7.1, you will be able to long press the app’s icon and quickly navigate to items you are following, selling or watching in the shopping site as well as a shortcut to search for things on eBay.

For those of you who don’t have Nougat 7.1, you can still take advantage of the app shortcuts in the eBay app (or any other that supports them) depending on your launcher.  Users of Action Launcher and Nova Launcher, which supports them, are good options to try if you are on an earlier version of Android.

Today’s deal over at Amazon is for those of you who have a USB Type-C compatible device.  Right now you can pick up a 2-pack of Anker Type-C cables for $15.99.  That’s a savings of 68% off the regular price.  The pack comes with 2 cables:

• USB Type-C to Type-C USB 2.0 3′
• USB Type-C to Type-A  USB 3.0 3′

That means that whether you are using a Type-C charger or want to plug your phone in to charge while in your car or on an airplane, one of these cables will do the trick for you.
