Hello! I’m Meera Iyer, the Content Editor at MODAPKPR.com. I hail from the vibrant city of Chennai, where I developed a love for the power of language alongside a fascination for technology. This led me to pursue a degree in English Literature with a specialization in Technical Writing.
When I’m not wordsmithing, you might find me curled up with a classic novel or exploring the vibrant street food scene in my city. I’m also a bit of a puzzle enthusiast. I love the challenge of fitting pieces together, whether it’s a jigsaw puzzle or a complex set of instructions.

I’ve always been drawn to the world of mobile tech, and I’m passionate about making it accessible to everyone. Joining the team at MODAPKPR.com has been the perfect way to combine my writing expertise with my love for Android.
I’m a stickler for clear communication and seamless user experiences. My background in technical writing has given me the tools to break down modding concepts into easy-to-follow guides and tutorials. I’m also a certified editor, which means I have a keen eye for detail and a knack for making sure every piece of content is polished and error-free.
At MODAPKPR.com, my goal is to be your guide through the world of modding. Whether it’s writing clear descriptions, creating step-by-step tutorials, or troubleshooting common issues, I’m here to make sure your modding journey is smooth and successful.
