Getting a grip on technology
Your smartphone is broken - and it's not just a cracked screen. The problem is with the apps, the operating system, the hardware, and affects your privacy, your health and our planet. During Dutch Design Week, we launch the Fix Your Phone Shop: a repair store that gets your phone working again in a way that feels good and works better.
Apps
Dating, fitness, planning, chatting: our world runs on apps. They are often free to download, but you pay with your privacy. Do they work for you, or you for them?
Operating System
You don't have much choice on which operating system your smartphone runs: Android or Apple. Why is this a problem?
Hardware
All sorts of precious minerals are used to power your phone. Do you know what's really in there? Let's open up the phone and repair a thing or two.
Cloud
Companies would like you to believe the cloud is a mysterious place up in the sky where your files are stored. The naked truth is that there is no such thing as 'the cloud'.
