It's nearly time for the Steam summer sale, which is one of the biggest retail events for patient PC gamers.

It's also the perfect time to find new and innovative indie games to add to your wishlist: Before each big Steam sale, Valve runs a Next Fest event to let developers show off their projects, get feedback and build hype before their big release.

Summer 2025's Next Fest has been chock full ofHades-likes, co-op hack-and-slash adventures and other reliably entertaining games but some of the best stuff in this event is what the algorithm doesn't show you.

I've played dozens of demos, ranging from games that are featured on the front page of the store to hidden gems that take some digging to find. Here are thebest PC gamesfrom this Next Fest showcase that you absolutely need to have wishlisted.

Brain Jar Games'Dead as Discocombines Hi-Fi Rush's rhythmic combat with Sifu's brutal beatdowns. It's up to you to pilot Charlie Disco as he braves neon-soaked city streets to take out his ex-bandmates in an '80s-themed revenge quest.

As you punch, kick, parry and dodge through throngs of thugs, fights transform into carefully choreographed dances, with every blow landing to the beat of the music. Did I mention that the demo's featured song is a cover of Michael Sembello's Maniac? Dead as Disco embraces the cheesiness of the movies it's obviously inspired by but the game is built on the solid foundations of a kinetic and satisfying combat system.

Dead as Disco doesn't have a release date yet but this is one Next Fest demo that has converted me into a day-one customer.

I'm a sucker for first-person shooters and developer Stubby Games'Voidbreaker(styled as Void/Breaker) is scratching my itch for a fast-paced, destruction-heavy shooter romp. You're trapped in a combat simulation to fulfill the every whim of a rogue AI, as it tests and perfects killer robots using your training data. But a mysterious voice in the system tells you there's a chance to escape — if you play your cards right.

Voidbreaker is a project created by the same solo dev behindThe Entropy Centre, and the once-sterile-now-dilapidated sci-fi visuals make a comeback here. Instead of navigating this urban decay, you'll turn it against your foes. In addition to classic movement shooter gameplay, players will force grip and toss environmental objects and blow building supports to smithereens with well-placed grenades. Fully simulated physics objects rain down on enemies, allowing you to weaponize the world around you.

Players can upgrade their grip, grenade or gun with mods found around the map, granting them better odds of successfully completing a run and getting one step closer to escaping the simulation. My favorite find was a legendary mod that turned my pistol rounds into a short-range field of electric sparks but there are dozens of loadout-altering abilities to play around with.

You'll get your shot at breaking out of the simulation soon. Voidbreaker will be released on Aug. 20.

When you see Annapurna's publisher seal in a game trailer, odds are good that the demo won't disappoint. And if you enjoy twin-stick shooter roguelikes akin to Binding of Isaac, you certainly can't go wrong with developer Furcula'sMorsels.

This game takes place in a world where magical cards fell from space, allowing certain creatures to take on powerful monster forms (it's like a grotesque twist on magical girls). Unfortunately, a gang of hardened criminals rules the world with their superior cards, leaving weaklings — that's you — to scurry away from danger and try to scrape by in the muck.

When you discover your own card powers, you realize it's time to take the fight to the baddies. A competent twin-stick shooter in its own right, Morsels' big twist is the ability to find additional monster cards that let you diversify your abilities. Certain Morsels fire streams of low damage bullets, others fire shotgun blasts and rarer Morsels have special abilities that can create powerful damage-dealing synergies as a team.

If you're looking for a dash of on-the-fly strategizing in your action roguelikes, Morsels is right up your alley. The game's cute-but-grungy aesthetic and retro graininess are a neat artistic bonus. Morsels will be released in 2025.

Platforms:PC, Mac, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch

GameCube aesthetics are so back. Developer Ambystoman'sDragon Marchis what you'd get if the classic arcade game Snake was built for sixth-generation consoles. Players guide Cereal the mecha-dragon through twisting and turning levels to find and reboot his friends, with a retro vibe reminiscent of Dreamcast's ChuChu Rocket.

Unfortunately, the cyberspace world is dangerous and there are enemies who'd want to see the adorable polygonal metal lizards shut back down. You'll be able to speed up or slow down the cadence of Cereal's march to avoid slithering centipedes, fireball projectiles and more. Just be careful not to loop around into one of the friendly dragons following your lead. Just like in the original iteration of Snake, it's a surefire way to get a game over.

Dragon March doesn't have a release date yet but it's coming along brilliantly with cutscenes and graphics that remind me of classic Digimon.

I didn't realize that I needed a Frankensteined combination of classic Resident Evil and Pokemon Mystery Dungeon in my life and I'm sure you didn't realize you needed this either. But developer Warkus is an absolute visionary so the turn-based RPGHouse of Necrosisis shambling into our lives nonetheless.

In House of Necrosis, you're stepping into the role of a legally distinct female special agent investigating zombies in a legally distinct ever-shifting mansion but instead of fumbling with tank controls, the entire game takes place on a grid.

You'll have to carefully plan every step to descend deeper into the mansion while staying healthy, conserving bullets and still earning enough experience to level up and get stronger. Each run is a brutal test of your wits and it's easy to get cornered by shamblers, zombified dogs and other nasty monsters. If you're truly unlucky, you might find yourself stalked by a giant zombie with a blade arm — his presence inspires fear not unlike Nemesis from Resident Evil 3.

House of Necrosis doesn't have a release date yet but the demo is a very polished look at what's to come.

Developer Alientrap'sDuneCrawlis a great hack-and-slash adventure that supports up to four-player co-op — I played solo but this game is definitely built to be enjoyed with your friends. In DuneCrawl, terracotta warriors attack your peaceful village with the eponymous Dune Crawler (a massive crustacean converted into a weapons platform).

It's up to you and your friends to defeat the invaders, take back the sentient ship and pilot it around a massive map to wipe out any other ne'er-do-wells that roam the sandy seas. DuneCrawl's gameplay is split between on-foot combat where players can use swords, bows, bombs and primitive guns to get the upper hand and Dune Crawler spelunking, where your team will explore the world and use cannons to fight massive opponents.

This game has an incredible capacity for co-op chaos but a team of people who often play together will surely move like a well-oiled machine. DuneCrawl will be released in 2025.

Developer Rogue Snail'sHell Clockis a dark fantasy reimagining of Brazil's War of Canudos — introducing many gamers (myself included) to a bloody historical period.

Pajeu is battling the Republic's military forces when the dead rise once again. Now he's forced to fight a war on two fronts to save his friends and comrades from mortal peril and change the course of history.

Hell Clock is an extremely competent Diablo-like action RPG — it's also a speedrunning game in its own right, because you have a timer ticking down to beat the levels in your run. New buffs automatically apply to your build, keeping you in the action. Once you fail a run, you get sent back to the hub area, where you can unlock new permanent gear and other meta-progression buffs from a massive skill tree.

There's a lot to see and do in Hell Clock and your power will cascade as you unlock more powerful abilities and augments. Even casual action RPG fans will find a game they can spend a lot of time with here. Hell Clock will be released on July 22.

Developer Pariah Interactive's1000 Deathsis a surrealist platformer (think Psychonauts on even more psychedelic substances) focused on the big "what if" moments everyone experiences throughout life.

As you get dragged into the headspaces of four separate characters, you'll alter their life's history by completing puzzling platforming challenges. Players will have to fiddle with gravity as they walk around curved levels, with gameplay reminiscent of some of Super Mario Galaxy's best moments.

The decisions you make will alter the narrative and the platforming mechanics of future levels: I sent the rat-like creature, Vayu, to Hollywood with their friend rather than having them stay in their hometown, which opened a diverging branch of levels to explore. I think 1000 Deaths will have a lot of replay value, as most gamers will want to find hidden secrets and explore every branching path.

1000 Deaths will be released on Aug. 7.

Developer Marc Makes Games'Passantis to chess what Balatro is to poker and that's no exaggeration. The big difference is that Passant requires you to put in a bit of work — you need to have a solid understanding of the tabletop game before you start fiddling with all the bells and whistles this game adds.

As you defeat enemy setups in Passant, you gain cash that you can spend on new pieces, temporary power-ups and badges that fundamentally change the rules of the game. The benefits you gain from a badge can be as simple as adding more turn undos for each game you play or as wacky as letting you promote units like bishops and rooks if you can successfully move them to the other side of the board.

I really suck at chess but I was able to roll through a couple games on the normal difficulty once I put a good setup into play. I'm fond of the dragon bishops, a special unit that can take enemies diagonally or in any adjacent square. Every third round you play, you'll go up against a boss board with buffing badges of their own. I've been able to conquer the first boss a handful of times but that second boss has proven to be a bit of a doozy.

Elon Musk infamously said he doesn't like chess becauseit doesn't have tech trees. That's pretty on-brand for the Tesla CEO, but at least Passant exists so he can take another crack at one of the most pedigreed board games in history. Passant: A Chess Roguelike will be released on Aug. 11.

Developer Slime King Games'Under The Islandcombines 2D RPG hack-and-slash action with a heaping helping of teen angst, daring to ask: What if a moody teenager was thrust into Link's Awakening?

Nia's parents are moving to Seashell Island to research the local ruins, which means she'll be sequestered on an island with no friends and nothing to do for a whole year. That might seem like a crummy deal, except for the fact that she immediately falls into an undiscovered cave and meets an ancient bird person while her family is unpacking the car. Nia discovers Seashell Island is on the verge of sinking beneath the waves so she has to go on a classical '90s-themed quest for the MacGuffins.

Players will need to brave the deceptively gorgeous pixel art island and its nasty critters, find upgrades and solve puzzles to unearth the mysteries of Nia's new home. This game is classic Zelda through-and-through, and anyone who enjoys Link's original adventures will appreciate this contemporary take on the genre.

Under The Island's release date has yet to be revealed — but just like with the other entries on this list, the best way to stay updated on a cool-looking game is to add it to your Steam wishlist.

There are a few reasons a factory reset on your laptop or Chromebook may be necessary. For one thing, it can helpimprove the performance of your laptopif it's a little older by clearing out some old files that are no longer needed. But you should also factory reset whenever you're giving old technology to a new person or receiving used tech that hasn't been wiped already. This gets rid of all apps, files, folders and personal information that doesn't need to be shared with the next user. It's a good part of thegeneral process of preparing your computer for gifting.

The big-picture steps you take to refresh a laptop are the same regardless of whether it's a Windows laptop, Apple MacBook or Chromebook — save your old data, remove all personal information, then go for a factory reset. It's the actual step-by-step procedure that differs depending on the type of laptop you're dealing with. Below, you'll find everything you need to know and do before giving your laptop a second life.

I typically save the laptop's physical cleaning until last (why clean your fingerprints off twice?), but you may want to start there — especially if it's been gathering dust in the back of a closet, under a bed or in the garage for the past several years. The basic equipment required for a good laptop cleaning is a can of compressed air and some disinfectant or alcohol wipes. For a slightly deeper clean, you may also want to grab a screwdriver and remove the bottom cover of your laptop (if possible) so you can carefully blow out any dust that's accumulated on the fans and vents.

After the laptop is clean, you can also wipe down the power adapter and any related accessories. It's also a good idea to ensure the power adapter is still in good, working condition. If you're still not quite sure where to start with the cleaning, check out ourcomplete guide to getting your laptop looking its best.

Before you even think about doing a factory reset on your MacBook, you need to save any data you want to keep. You may have already done this at some point if you migrated data from this old MacBook to a new one using Apple's Migration Assistant. If that's not the case, it's time to hook up an external drive and useMacOS' built-in Time Machine tool to create a backup. If you have an iCloud account, you can back up your data there as well.

You'll also want to log out of all accounts before wiping your MacBook's drive. Start with iCloud, Find My Mac and iMessage. Then look for individual software accounts you may need to deregister. If you use a browser other than Safari, such as Chrome or Firefox, you should sign out of those as well. Basically, if it's got personal account information, you'll want to sign out. (Here's how to find account settings in MacOS.)

Two other things you should do before a factory reset: Unpair any Bluetooth devices — particularly if the MacBook is being gifted to someone in your household — and reset the NVRAM. The latter is memory that holds onto settings that the MacBook needs before loading MacOS. On startup, press and holdOption-Command-P-Rto reset the NVRAM.

If you've done everything above, you're ready to return your MacBook to its out-of-the-box state. On an Intel-based Mac, reboot the system and press and holdCommand-Rto enter Recovery Mode. (Accessing Recovery Mode on MacBooks running on the company's M-series chipsis different, however.)

Once in Recovery Mode, you'll see a window of MacOS utilities. Use theDisk Utilityto erase your drive. When that's complete, you'll be able to reinstall MacOS. After it's done reinstalling, you'll reach theSetup Assistant. From there you can stop and shut it down or set it up for the recipient.

As with gifting a MacBook, start by backing up any important folders and files on your old laptop to cloud storage or an external drive. If you're doing the latter, go toSettings > Update & Security > Backup > Add a driveand select the external drive. Then click on Backup Now.

A lot of paid software requires you to sign in with an account, a product key or both. Before you wipe your laptop's storage, sign out of any accounts and deregister software licenses (if possible). If you need those product keys to re-register software on a new laptop, be sure to save that information. If you use a browser other than Edge, such as Chrome or Firefox, sign out of those as well. Basically, if it's got personal account information, sign out.

Ready to clean the drive and reinstall Windows? Go toSettings > System > Recovery. At the top of the window, you'll see Reset this PC. Click on Get Started and select Remove Everything from the box that appears. From there, you can select to reinstall Windows from the local drive or download it from the cloud. After that, Windows cleans the drive of all software, settings and data. When it's done, the laptop will start in its setup assistant mode. You can then stop and shut it down for a fresh-out-of-the-box experience or do some setup, which is a nice touch, especially if it's going to a family member so they can use it right away.

If you used a Microsoft account to sign in to the laptop, the last thing you'll want to do is remove the laptop from that account.Sign in to your accountfrom another computer and click on the Devices tab at the top of the page. Find the laptop that you're gifting on the list of devices, and at the bottom of the listing, you'll see the option to remove the device. Click it and you're done.

Chromebooks are the easiest to refresh. That's mainly because of their cloud-based design. Google also makes it extremely easy to wipe your data and securely clean the internal storage as well as remove the Chromebook from your Google account.

Before you even consider gifting an old Chromebook, check its auto-update expiration. Google only guarantees Chrome OS and browser feature support on non-Google hardware for so long. Every device has a date on which it stops receiving updates, aka its AUE date. Current models receive updates for eight years; older models could potentially be a year or two away from reaching their AUE.

Google maintains an AUE list, so finding the date your Chromebook will stop receiving updates is as easy as locating your model on that list. The AUE can also be found in your Chromebook's settings. Here'show to find the AUE from Google and in your Chromebook.

Powerwash is Google's built-in factory reset tool for Chromebooks. Once you've backed up folders or files stored on the Chromebook's internal drive, running Powerwash will securely scrub the system and reboot. When it restarts, it'll be just like the day you unboxed it.

The actual Powerwash typically takes less than a minute to complete. A simple search for "powerwash" in your Chromebook's settings will bring you right to the feature, buthere's everything you need to knowabout the procedure.

Although you've removed youraccountfrom the Chromebook, you haven't removed theChromebookfrom your account. Start by signing into yourGoogle account and head to the Security settings. If you use the Chrome browser, you can also click on your account avatar and selectManage your Google Accountfrom the drop-down menu.

In theSecuritysection, scroll down until you see a box labeledYour devices, which lists all the devices attached to your account. At the bottom of the box, click onManage devicesand find the Chromebook you're gifting and selectSign Out.

Give the Chromebook a good external cleaning, gather up any accessories and it's ready to hand off to your giftee.

It might not be rare for the 13th day of the month to fall on a Friday (it happens 1-3 times a year), but it's still a great excuse to travel back in time 45 years to Camp Crystal Lake for one of the most famous horror movies of all time –Friday the 13th.

The 1980 slasher film, featuring the tormented killer Jason Voorhees and his hapless camp counselor victims, was hated by critics yet loved by audiences. The horror franchise has spawned 11 sequels (so far) and transmuted a blood-soaked hockey mask into a sacred horror relic.

Top-tier streaming platforms likeNetflixandPrime Videomay offer the latest horror hits, but for the scariest films of the 20th century, it's hard to beat Tubi. You can watch everything from creepy classics like Night of the Living Dead and Texas Chainsaw Massacre to cult favorites like The Descent and Terrifier. Whether you're in the mood for a slow-burning psychological thriller or something blood-soaked and over-the-top, there's almost always something good on Tubi.

Tubi does have advertising breaks that increase in length as you progress through the movie, but they're not terrible, and they might give you a chance to catch your breath before the next scare hits. Check out our top 25 horror movies on Tubi right now.

Twenty years after a string of unsolved murders shuttered Camp Crystal Lake, a new owner tries to reopen the camp with disastrous results. One by one, young camp counselors are struck down in gruesome fashion. Can one "final girl" survive the wrath of Jason Voorhees?

Produced in 1974 for a mere $140,000, Tobe Hooper's indie film about a family of cannibals who just want to be left alone (and eat everyone who bothers them) introduced several slasher horror tropes that have since become cliches, as well as the terrifying human monster Leatherface.

Clive Barker might hatethe name "Pinhead," but fans loved it, as well as the character called "Lead Cenobite" in Hellraiser's credits. The supernatural gore-fest is filled with disturbing practical effects and buckets and buckets of blood.

George Romero broke the mold with this germinal horror flick that introduced a generation of horror fans to the walking dead. Shambling "ghouls" terrorize a group of young adults in a farmhouse, yet the danger comes as much from other humans as from the undead

When the truth is finally revealed, he finds himself trapped in a nightmarish descent into pain, obsession, and torture, much of which involves sewing needles.

This unique throwback flick set in the 1980s is painstakingly made to appear it was filmed then too.

With his own daughter at risk, Jong-goo must uncover the truth behind the evil infecting his town before it takes over.

This French zombie film takes a minimal approach to the undead apocalypse.

Slow and mostly silent, the film explores Sam's loneliness and dwindling sanity as he tries to stay alive all by himself.

Lucio Fulci's Zombie (billed as Zombi 2 in Italy though not a sequel) is a late 1970s horror classic featuring an island-based undead outbreak that threatens to expand into New York City and beyond — a classic zombies-eating-a-lot-of-humans flick that's perfect for a 3 a.m. watch. Don't miss the underwater battle between tiger shark and zombie.

This English-language remake of the Japanese horror classic follows a reporter investigating a cursed videotape that leads to the viewer's death seven days later.

Summer is here, delivering soaring temperatures, bright sunny days and the temptation to take off for a vacation. Summer is peaktravelseason for a reason, withcamping tripsand beach weekends being popular getaways. However, traveling anywhere also comes with stress. Keeping track of your luggage during flights, or remembering where you set up your tent can leave you feeling overwhelmed when you're supposed to be relaxing. Thankfully, AppleAirTagsare here to help.

These tiny gadgets are small enough to be discreet, but they're powerful enough to help you keep track of items like abag, purse,suitcaseor a set of keys. They're fairly easy to set up, and once they're connected to yourphone, you don't have to do much else. Here are some ways to get the most out ofAirTags.

Generally, you need to be within Bluetooth range to find your AirTag, but you can use Apple's Find My service to locate Apple's tiny tracker if it's farther away, as long as it's still in range of another Apple device. (Here's how theFind Mynetwork works.) To do so, just put your AirTag into Lost Mode and you'll get a notification once it's within range of the Find My network.

For more details, here'show to tellif an AirTag is tracking your location on Android and adeep diveinto AirTags.

If you're setting up camp in a location you've never visited, it could be useful to place an AirTag inside your tent so you can easily find your campsite. For instance, if you decide to hike several miles one day, you can use Find My to look up the AirTag's last location (your tent) and get directions back to the campsite. Remember, it'll need to be within range of someone else's device, so don't rely on this out in the wilderness. (This is also why Apple advises you not to use AirTags on pets.)

How often have you left your coat behind in a restaurant, bar or friend's house? Forgetting to grab your jacket when you head out is easy to do, especially if the weather is warmer than you expected or your hands are full ofleftoversand to-go cups. If you know you'll be hanging your jacket on a coat rack or the back of a chair when you arrive, place an AirTag inside the pocket so you know where you left it. This can help prevent yet another favorite jacket from getting lost, and less money out of your wallet to replace it.

Airports can be tricky tonavigate, and can be especially difficult when you're trying to find the correct luggage pickup. Sometimes you wait 30 minutes until your bags finally roll out on the conveyor belt, and sometimes they get lost. To relieve the stress of trying to locate your suitcase, you can put an AirTag tracker inside so you can track its whereabouts.

This can help you find out if your bags were left on theairplane, if they're on the conveyor belt but you haven't spotted them yet or if someone mistakenly grabbed your luggage.

Place an AirTag inside your laptop bag so you stop misplacing it.

Laptop bags can be easily left behind at a cafe when you're picking up coffee for everyone at the office. When your hands are full and you're distracted wondering how you're going to open your car door, it's hard to remember to grab your bag from the booth you were sitting in. That's why it's a good idea to place an AirTag inside one of the pockets. You will be able to locate your expensive laptop and save any confidential company or personal information in your bag.

If it hasn't happened to you, you probably know someone who has had this experience. You get home from a bike ride, go inside to grab water and something to eat and completely forget about the bike you left outside. Or maybe you went to the store, didn't lock your bike up and when you came back it was gone. If you place an AirTag in a hidden place on the bike, you can easily locate it.

We don't recommend tracking the bicycle down on your own. It's best to notify the police and let them retrieve your bike so you can avoid any dangerous situations. This method also works on your car if it's been stolen or towed, or if you can't remember where you parked it. If you have an iPhone and it's connected to your car via Bluetooth, your phone can locate where you last left it.

Your iPhone can find your AirTag.

AirTag is commonly used to locate these items.

Apple AirTags help keep track of your keys and bags, but can they help track your pet? It seems simple enough to place anAirTagon your pet's collar so you can track them 24/7. It's certainly an option, but it might not the best one. After all, it does have limitations and risks of its own.

Reliability and safety both must be factored into the conversation when it comes to deciding whether or not to strap an AirTag to your pet. To learn if AirTags are acceptable for pet tracking, we spoke with two experts. Here's everything to know.

Apple AirTags were created to help keep track of personal items by using a "secure Bluetooth signal that can be detected by nearby devices in the Find My network,"according to Apple.

The small devices, costing$29 per tag, are often used on suitcases, purses, backpacks and key chains. Apple's website doesn't mention using AirTags on pets, probably for a good reason.

Although AirTags may seem like a convenient and relatively cheap way to keep track of your furry friends, experts advise against it.

If AirTags are attached to a pet's collars, there's a chance it could lead to a medical emergency, saidDr. Shannon Vawter, medical director and veterinarian at Thrive Pet Healthcare Wedgewood in Nashville, Tennessee.

"There's a battery in there, and if the dog or cat ingests this — which there'sseveral articlesand reports in our veterinary magazines where people have cited that this has happened — then we have to do a surgery called a gastronomy or an enterotomy and go fish that tag out," Vawter said, adding that the battery is dangerous because if it starts "to corrode or open up with that acid inside, it'll burn a hole right through their GI tract."

Vawter said the emergency surgery to remove the AirTag could range in price between $2,000 and $5,000, adding that dogs are more likely to chew or eat an AirTag, but that cats could also be at risk of doing so.

Tracking limitations are another reason experts caution against them.

"An AirTag has very limited tracking capabilities and accuracy in rural areas, the exact place that you're likely to need it the most," saidMaleki Burke, founder of Snootiful Hound, a company that created escape-proof harnesses for sighthounds. Because AirTags depend on nearby Apple devices, Burke said that if your pet is lost in a rural area, the location may not be accurate or available.

"This is especially problematic if you're trying to track a dog that has wandered far away from populated areas," he said.

Both Vawter and Burke recommend that the first line of action to keep your pet safe is to get them microchipped. A microchip is a small, permanent chip that's equivalent to thesize of a grain of riceand is embedded into the pet. According toPawlicy Advisor, a pet insurance marketplace, microchips for dogs cost between $25 to $60. If you adopt your pet from a shelter, it may be chipped beforehand. In that case, the shelter would provide you with the microchip identification number during the adoption process.

"Any pet can get a microchip at any age, and it is not much bigger than a vaccine needle," Vawter said. "We do it all the time with distraction, like giving them some cheese or a little bit of peanut butter, and they don't even know they get it."

When someone finds a lost pet and brings it to an animal shelter or a veterinary office, the pet is scanned for a microchip. Microchips contain information about the pet and the owner's personal information so they can be reunited quickly. If you need to update your pet's microchip information, visit theAmerican Animal Hospital Association's microchip registry lookup. Enter your pet's microchip ID to find where it is enrolled, then request to update all necessary information.

The microchip is great for someone who finds your pet, but you may still want to pair it with a device that can actively track them. That's where a GPS collar can come in handy.

"Let's say your dog gets loose, the chances are, in the short term, they're not going to go too far," said Burke, who personally uses the GPS trackerTractivefor his dog. "If you have a GPS on them and you can track them, you can get them back in minutes."

Like many GPS collars, Tractive requires a monthly subscription.The basic planis $13 a month or $8 a month if you sign up for a year-long subscription.

Vawter also recommends a GPS tracker over an AirTag because they're typically flat and built into the collar, rather than dangling off the collar.

"They're very large, so they'd be difficult to eat or bite into," she said. "The other thing is, they're relying on satellites, not people's phones or Bluetooth. The only negative about a GPS — and that's why I still want a microchip — is the GPS has a battery, and it's short-lived."

Vawter added that if your pet keeps escaping, talk with your veterinarian to find the root cause of why it's happening in the first place.

AirTags are great for your keys and other personal belongings, but there are safer and more foolproof ways to track your pets.

"Make sure your dog is microchipped," Burke said. "But also, if you're worried about your dog escaping, just get a GPS. The peace of mind is worth its weight in gold."

This week onstreaming, get ready for crime of every kind. True crime, crime thrillers — it's all in there.

Over on Apple TV Plus, Julianne Moore stars in the new film Echo Valley as a mother who helps her daughter cover up a murder. Peacock also just released its latest true crime show, The Gilgo Beach Killer: House of Secrets, a three-part series about a Long Island serial killer that lived a double life, working as an architect in Manhattan by day, and preying on women by night.

For something a little lighter, check out Deep Cover on Prime Video, a film about three improvisers recruited by the police to go undercover and infiltrate a gang. The film, which stars Bryce Dallas Howard, Nick Mohammed and Orlando Bloom, is out now.

If crime is NOT your thing, don't worry, there's a lot more out there than just killers and spies. We suggest Call Her Alex, the new docuseries about podcaster Alex Cooper that's already creatingtons of buzz, or the film that originally defined "summer blockbuster," the Steven Spielberg classic,Jaws. (Oops, I guess that film is all about a killer, sorry.) Jaws arrives on Peacock — along with its three sequels — this Sunday. The films will stream exclusively on the platform.

These titles and many more are part of this weekend's new releases — here's all the info you need to tune in.

Arnold Schwarzenegger is joined by another legendary action star, Carrie-Anne Moss, for season 2 of Netflix's action-comedy series FUBAR, which is out this week. In the series, Schwarzenegger and Monica Barbaro play a father-daughter spy duo Luke and Emma Brunner. Moss spices things up this season with her portrayal of Greta, a German former spy who has a romantic history with Luke.

This month marks the return of Netflix's Trainwreck documentary franchise, which explores some of the most sensational or disastrous news stories of the recent past. Trainwreck: The Astroworld Tragedy, which arrived on June 10, is the first film in the new batch. It digs deep into the tragic Astroworld concert that left 10 fans dead after chaos ensued at Travis Scott's 2021 performance. Seven more installments of Trainwreck will drop over the summer, one each week through July 29.

In Deep Cover, Bryce Dallas Howard plays Kat, an improv comedy teacher who is approached by an undercover cop (Sean Bean) to infiltrate a group of criminals. Kat, along with two of her students (played by Orlando Bloom and Nick Mohammed) go undercover to infiltrate the gangs of London, and pretty soon they realize how deadly it can be to commit to the bit.

Julianne Moore is currently starring in Netflix's Top 10 show Sirens, but she's also got another prestige project arriving this week, the thriller Echo Valley, which is out on Apple TV Plus. In the new film, Moore plays Kate, who is forced to piece together the mysterious details of why her daughter (Sydney Sweeney) came home one night covered in someone else's blood. Brad Ingelsby, who wrote the HBO Max series Mare of Easttown, penned the screenplay for the film which arrived on Friday, June 13.

Alex Cooper, host of the Call Her Daddy podcast, has created an empire based on her open, honest discussions of sex, feminism and culture at large, and Call Her Alex is a look at the woman behind the microphone. The two-part series follows Cooper as she performs her Unwell Tour, while interspersing incredibly intimate revelations about her past and the formative, sometimes traumatic experiences that shaped her world view. The series is out now on Hulu.

Peacock's latest entry in the true crime genre, The Gilgo Beach Killer: House of Secrets, is a three-episode docu-series that focuses on the secret life of architect Rex Heuermann, the man accused of killing New York-area sex workers for over a decade. The series arrived on June 10. (If it leaves you wanting more, Netflix also has its own doc, Gone Girls: The Long Island Serial Killer, a thoughtful variation on the same case that pays particular attention to the victims.)

It's never safe to go back in the water when Jaws is around. Steven Spielberg's shark-infested summer blockbuster celebrates its 50th anniversary this year and in honor of that milestone, the entire Jaws collection is headed to Peacock. Jaws (1975), Jaws 2 (1978), Jaws 3-D (1983) and Jaws: The Revenge (1987) are all joining the streamer on June 15.

Summertime is in the air, and it's the perfect season to get away for a weekend. Whether you're preparing for your nextroad tripor popping down to the beach to soak up some sun, chances are you'll be driving to get there.Google Mapsmakes it easy for you to get where you're going while avoiding roadwork or bumper-to-bumper traffic along the way. Turn-by-turn directions ensure you never get lost, even when you're driving in an unfamiliar area. However, if your trip takes you through remote regions, you may not have internet access, which can cause issues.

Without a net connection, Google Maps can't help you reroute, recover from a wrong turn or find a gas station. You're stuck with whatever directions you started with. Luckily, there's a smart work-around: You can plan ahead and download your map for offline use. With offline maps, you can still access turn-by-turn navigation even when you're completely disconnected. Here's how to make sure you're never lost, even without service.

Want to learn about other Google Maps tips and tricks? Check outhow to blur your house on Google Maps, and take a look at thesethree Google Maps featuresyou'll definitely want to be aware of.

First off, you won't download all of Google Maps in its entirety. Instead, before your trip, you'll want to download a specific area, which could be a city, county or region where you'll be spending time and might not have service on your phone.

To download a map in Google Maps offline, open the Google Maps app on iOS or Android and tap your profile picture on the top right (you must be logged in to your Google account for this to work). In the menu that appears, tapOffline maps > Select Your Own Map.

You can download multiple Google Maps areas offline.

Use your fingers to place the map you want to download within the confines of the rectangle border. Use one finger to move across the map, and a two-finger pinch to zoom in and out. As you move around the map, you'll see how much storage space the download will take up on your phone. Once you're happy with the area, tapDownload.

Note: Alternatively, you can type a city or other area into Google Maps and then hit theDownloadbutton that appears in the pull-up window to download the map offline but this only works on the iPhone.

You must be connected to Wi-Fi to download the map. If you want to download over cellular, go to theOffline mapspage, tap the gear icon on the top right, tapWhen to download offline mapsand selectOver Wi-Fi or mobile network. Once your map is downloaded, you'll be sent back to theOffline mapspage, where you can see all your offline maps.

You can only download a map that's a maximum 250MB (what will appear in the selected map is roughly the size of Maine).

Now you'll be able to use Google Maps even when you're offline in the area you downloaded — and in that area only. You won't get extremely accurate travel times or alternate route options because traffic and other road issues are not accounted for but you will get a general ballpark idea of how long your trip should take. Transit, bicycling and walking directions also are not available offline — only driving directions.

You'll know you're using your offline map when you see a little cloud icon with a line through it in Google Maps.
