Need something fixed? Well, there’s an app for that...or so they say. Apparently, it connects you with repair folks who can handle your broken stuff.

Just don’t expect it to fix your procrastination, that’s on you. Check it out: https://www.wired.com/story/the-repair-app/ #RepairApp #TechHumor #FixIt #LazyLife #JustSaying
