About Us
The iGeeksBlog Story
It all began in 2012… would you believe that iGeeksBlog started as a side-hustle by two Apple enthusiasts who juggled 9-5 jobs? Today, we have become one of the go-to consumer technology platforms for people worldwide to get reliable information and tutorials on ‘Everything Apple.’
To be more precise, iGeeksBlog (registered under iGeeks Media Private Limited) has helped 345 million+ users use their Apple devices efficiently. As per the current stats, over 1 million people on average read our articles every month.
Although iGeeksBlog started out of a passion for connecting with like-minded people, now we take it as our responsibility to empower people to learn and become technologically independent.
Our Mission
“To help people live better leveraging Apple’s technology through our one-stop library comprising 4000+ pieces of content.”
To achieve this, our army of 20+ tech-nerds creates straightforward tutorials (without confusing industry jargon), troubleshooting guides (with methods that work), researched editorials, well-tested apps, and unbiased product lists focused on enhancing your experience across multiple digital platforms.
While helping people keeps us motivated to excel at what we are doing, it gives us immense pleasure to see our efforts and endeavors appreciated by tech and news giants.
