Truecaller is getting a new update for Android and iOS users globally, brings full-screen caller ID, Home tab and more

Swedish caller identification app Truecaller on Wednesday announced that it has rolled out updates for its Android and iOS users. The company says that with the new update it has given a new look to its platform for global users. The new version of Truecaller streamlines calls history, SMS and Instant Messages conversations into a single tab with the introduction of the new Home screen.  The Truecaller update brings two new features: a fresh full-screen caller ID and a Smart SMS allowing users to automatically categorize their SMS. According to the company, this will improve the communication experience for  Android and iOS users globally.

Sandeep Patil, Managing Director at Truecaller said, “Communication in 2020 is easier in many ways, but also complicated by the vast amount of ways to connect with people and information. There is a need to streamline this experience, we believe. In recent years we have seen how Truecaller has become your communication hub where all spam – calls and SMS – is identified and there is no need to switch between different apps for calls and messages. With this update, we want to make it, even more, easier for our users to have streamlined communication. At a time when we should be working to support each other in unity, it is unfortunate to see many scammers and fraudsters trying to capitalize on these difficult times. For over a decade now, Truecaller has been the main line of defence against such activity.” 

Home Tab
Home Tab

The biggest highlight of the Truecaller update is the Home Tab. Users will now see all their messages, as well as calls, joined together into a single list on the Home tab. This allows them to view their latest activity under a single tab in order to make a voice call, VoIP call, chat text and much more.

Full-Screen Caller ID
Full-Screen Caller ID

Another new feature introduced is the full-screen caller ID. If you have enough of getting pop-ups then this feature is a blessing to you.  Instead of having a small floating pop-up, you will now see a Full-Screen Caller ID with a full-screen design. The Caller ID will display colours to identify what type of call it is: blue for calls from contacts or unknown numbers, purple for Priority calls from businesses or delivery services, red for known spammers, and gold for users with upgraded Gold accounts.

Smart SMS and Insights
Smart SMS and Insights

Last but not the least feature is Smart SMS and Insights.  This allows the app to use the on-device machine learning to automatically sort messages into four distinct groups: Personal, Important, Others, and Spam. The notifications related to the financial & payment can be searched in the Important tab allowing you to keep a tab on your bills payments and budgets. One can make up one’s mind to pay a transactional SMS straight from the app or allowing the app to remind you later on. Future updates will include travel reminders like flight delays, bus seat allocation, live tracking & updates on postal/courier deliveries, tax updates and hospital/doctor appointments. 

According to the company, all the processing happens offline and no message leaves the mobile device. All transactional information is securely stored on the mobile. This feature will be India first for all Android users.

Google Chrome brings new privacy and third-party cookie controls

The search giant Google Chrome has begun the rollout of new privacy and security settings for desktop for better control as well as safety. Moreover, it is also getting safety check tools, third party controls in Incognito mode, secure DNS and much more. The company’s head announced the release of the new tools for the desktop version of google chrome.

Google CEO, Sundar Pichai took to Twitter to announce the roll-out, hos tweet reads, “We’re rolling out new tools + redesigned privacy & security settings in on desktop to help you better control your safety on the web: a safety check tool, 3rd party cookie controls in Incognito mode, Enhanced Safe Browsing, Secure DNS & more.”

Let’s have a look at what the latest Google Chrome update brings for the users:

  • Now you can manage cookies by choosing if and how are used by websites you visit. You also get the choice to block third-party cookies in regular or Incognito mode and to block all cookies on some or all websites. 
  • The company has now reorganised the controls into two distinct sections to allow the users to search for most sensitive website permissions such as access to location, camera or microphone, and notifications.
  • Earlier at the top of Chrome settings, there was  “People” to help you find sync controls. In place of that, you will now see “You and Google” allowing you to take charge of what data is shared with Google to store in your Google Account and made available across all your devices.
  • With the new update  “Clear browsing data” has been repositioned to the top of the Privacy & Security section. 

New safety tools

The new Google Chrome update brings in new tools that will advise you if the passwords you’ve asked Chrome to remember have been compromised, and if so, how to fix them. Now the users will be warned by Google’s technology before you visit any dangerous site or download a harmful app or extension if Safe Browsing is turned off. Now you will be altered and will be advised how to remove if any malicious extensions are installed.

Third-party cookie controls in Incognito mode 

Third-party cookie controls in Incognito mode 

The users browsing history and information entered in forms or browser cookies are not saved in Incognito mode. Chrome will now allow users to block third-party cookies in the incognito mode. Also, they can also allow third-party cookies for specific sites by clicking the “eye” icon in the address bar. 

Pin extensions to the toolbar

Now the users will see a new puzzle icon on the top right corner of your extensions on your toolbar allowing you more control over data extensions you can access on sites you visit. You can now pin your favourite extensions to the toolbar.

Upgraded security

With the new update, Chrome is getting two major security upgrades Enhanced Safe Browsing and Secure DNS. For protection from phishing, malware and other web-based threats you can turn on Enhanced Safe Browsing. When it is turned on Chrome can check whether pages and downloads are dangerous by sending information about them to Google Safe Browsing. 

Whereas with the Secure DNS your security and privacy while browsing the web will be improved. According to the company, while you are accessing a website, your browser first needs to determine which server is hosting it, using a step known as a “DNS (Domain Name System) lookup.” Chrome’s Secure DNS feature uses DNS-over-HTTPS to encrypt this step, thereby helping prevent attackers from observing what sites you visit or sending you to phishing websites. By default, Chrome will automatically upgrade you to DNS-over-HTTPS if your current service provider supports it. You can also configure a different secure DNS provider in the Advanced security section, or disable the feature altogether.

Xiaomi launched MIUI 12 with improved privacy and a revamped UI design: Details

Xiaomi has finally launched its 12th iteration of Android-based custom operating system MIUI 12. It comes with a slew of changes as well as improved privacy features and revamped UI as well as wallpapers. The MIUI 12 has been released for the global market including India. The company will begin the rollout from next month in phases.

To recall the company released its latest OS in the Chinese markets a few weeks back and it has launched the much-awaited MIUI 12 for the global market which marches up with the Chinese version. Xiaomi will begin the final roll out later in June but the beta version of the operating system will start rolling out from next week. Let’s take a look at its new features.

Privacy features

This time the company has focused on bringing new privacy tools. The company says that MIUI 12 grants the user stronger control over permissions which takes privacy protection to the next level. With the launch of the new version now an individual app will ask for permission. You will now get options such as While using the app” and “Notify” for permission. This allows the user to manage apps request sensitive permissions such as location, permissions to access the camera, microphone, contacts, call history, calendar and storage are only allowed under “While using the app” mode. Now the users can clear away their location information and metadata before they send their pictures.

Super Wallpaper

Revamped Interface Design

The company has also aimed its attention at giving a new look to its UI design and nuanced system animations. With the use of Mi Render Engine, you will get a smoother UI experience. It brings refreshed design that is inspired by nature from the opening and closing of apps to the smooth switching between apps. The company says that with the nuanced system animations, MIUI 12 introduces a lifelike OS experience where every detail becomes tangibly real. 

The MIUI 12 brings in  “Super Wallpaper” that represents iconic planetary landforms based on NASA’s official imagery. This has been spread out to Always-on display, Home screen, and Lock screen.

Other features and improvements

With the release of MIUI 12 multitasking will become manageable. Now a global floating window has been introduced that allows the users to navigate the system using full-screen gestures, floating windows can facilitate multitasking and save the trouble of constantly switching between apps. The floating windows can be moved, closed and resized by simple gestures applied to the action bar. For instance, when a video is playing the users will now be able to read a received text and can also respond to it without having to pause a video. 

MIUI 12 also draws enhanced screen casting functionality allowing the users to cast documents, apps, videos, and games with a single tap. According to the company, the windows that are being cast can be minimized at any time. The option to cast items with the screen off decreases power consumption and hiding private items doesn’t allow floating notifications and incoming calls to appear on external monitors.

In addition to this MIUI 12 supports an Ultra battery saver mode, Dark mode, App drawers and more. The company plans to begin its first phase of the rollout from June to Mi 9, Mi 9T, Mi 9T Pro, Redmi K20 and Redmi K20 Pro.

Facebook Shops now launched to help businesses of all sizes prepare for future

Facebook Shops now launched to help businesses of all sizes prepare for future

With many small businesses are struggling and with stores closing due to the COVID-19 pandemic, entrepreneurs are finding ways to bring their businesses online. Now, Facebook Shops have been rolled out to empower business owner and to make shopping seamless

“Facebook Shops make it easy for businesses to set up a single online store for customers to access on both Facebook and Instagram. Creating a Facebook Shop is free and simple. Businesses can choose the products they want to feature from their catalogue and then customize the look and feel of their shop with a cover image and accent colours that showcase their brand. This means any seller, no matter their size or budget, can bring their business online and connect with customers wherever and whenever it’s convenient for them,” the Mark Zuckerberg-led company revealed in a blog post.

Wondering where you can find Facebook Shops? Well, people can discover Facebook Shops on a business’ Facebook Page or Instagram profile as well as through stories or ads. From there, they can browse the full collection, save products they’re interested in and place an order — either on the business’ website or without leaving the app if the business has enabled checkout in the US.

Facebook Shops work just like a physical store. If you need to ask someone for help while being in Facebook Shops, you’ll be able to message a business through WhatsApp, Messenger or Instagram Direct to get support, track deliveries and more. Moreover, Facebook also revealed that users will be able to view a business’ shop and make purchases right within a chat in WhatsApp, Messenger or Instagram Direct in the coming days.

In a blog post, Facebook revealed, Facebook Shops “will be more widely available in the coming months. You can learn more about how we built Shops with privacy in mind here. We’re also investing in features across our apps like Instagram Shop, live shopping and more that will be integrated with Facebook Shops to help customers discover products they’re interested in and make purchasing easier.”

Let’s check out what Instagram Shop is all about. According to Facebook, This summer, starting in the US, we’re introducing Instagram Shop, a new way to discover and buy products you love in Instagram Explore. You can get inspired by collections from @shop, browse selections from your favourite brands and creators, filter by categories like beauty and home, and purchase the looks you love all in one place. And later this year, we’re adding a new shop tab in the navigation bar, so you can get to Instagram Shop in just one tap.”

Asserting that Facebook-owned apps users have been using live video across its social media platforms to showcase products for years, from shoe stores announcing new sneakers to beauty influencers trying on different lipsticks, Facebook notified, “Now, we’re making it easier to shop for products in real time. Soon, sellers, brands and creators will be able to tag products from their Facebook Shop or catalog before going live and those products will be shown at the bottom of the video so people can easily tap to learn more and purchase.”

Initially Facebook Shops is being tested with businesses on Facebook and Instagram, and the social networking giant would soon roll it out more broadly in the coming months.

Besides this, Facebook is also testing ways to make it easier to earn rewards with businesses you love by enabling you to connect your loyalty programs, like the points program at your local cafe, to your Facebook account. “You’ll be able to easily see and keep track of your points and rewards. And we’re exploring ways to help small businesses create, manage and surface a loyalty program on Facebook Shops,” the social networking giant mentioned.

In order to provide small businesses the assistance they need, Facebook is also working more closely with partners like Shopify, BigCommerce, WooCommerce, ChannelAdvisor, CedCommerce, Cafe24, Tienda Nube and Feedonomics. Mind you! Facebook stated that “these organizations offer powerful tools to help entrepreneurs start and run their businesses and move online. Now they’ll help small businesses build and grow their Facebook Shops and use our other commerce tools.”

Poco’s TWS will be called POCO Pop Buds, to launch in India soon

The Xiaomi’s spin-off-brand Poco is all set to foray into the audio department with the launch of TWS earbuds in India. The company is going to launch  POCO Pop Buds in the country. The company hosted a poll on its social media accounts to choose a name for its first truly wireless earphones. The company selling the name has been chosen by the Poco fans through the poll. The earbuds are expected to arrive in the country alongside the Poco F2 Pro smartphone. 

In a Twitter poll, Poco Pop Buds got the highest share of votes which helped the company to decide the name of the upcoming product. The open poll consisted of four exciting names POCO Move Buds, Klip Buds, Pop Buds to POCO Funkz. The Poco fans were asked to choose a name for its TWS earbuds and 42.4 percent of the audience voted for the Poco Pop Buds out of a total 21,416 votes thereby confirming the name of the upcoming product.

To add to this engagement, C Manmohan, General Manager, POCO India said, “Hey POCO fans, a few weeks back, we asked you which product we should bring next and you chose TWS (earbuds). We’re happy to announce that we’re a step closer in making it a reality and want your help in choosing a name for it. Vote and let’s know what we should call it.”

Until now the earbuds are still under development and the company shares no further information with regard to the earbuds specification and how long it would take to arrive in the market. In April last month, the company announced that it is working on its TWS earphones while confirming that these will arrive in India first.

The company stated that “The Indian wearables market registered a growth of 168.3% last year. With ear-worn devices finding a huge appeal among consumers, rapid advancement in technologies will only fuel this growth going ahead. In line with this, POCO is all set to add its take on TWS audio to the POCO family.”

Like we mentioned earlier recently the company launched its new smartphone globally Poco F2 Pro. The smartphone is the rebranded version of Redmi K30 Pro. The device features a 6.67-inch full-HD  AMOLED display, It is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 processor with 8GB of RAM and up to 256GB of storage. The phone comes with a quad rear camera setup consisting of a 64MP of a primary sensor, a 5MO telemacro lens, a 13MP wide-angle lens and a 2MP depth sensor. On the front, there is a 20-megapixel pop-up selfie camera. The handset packs a 4,700mAh battery supported with 30W charging tech.

Beware! Online romance scams are a modern form of fraud, reveals a study

With people across the globe practising social distancing owing to the COVID-19 pandemic, digital communication technologies have come to forefront to help them overcome physical, social and psychological barriers in building romantic relationships. Online dating apps like Tinder, Bumble, OkCupid and LivU are amongst several other dating websites that have gained traction during this stay-at-home period. But now a research published in Clinical Practice & Epidemiology in Mental Health journal revealed that the online dating industry has given rise to new forms of pathologies and crime as well.

The study by Andrea Pozza and her team from University of Siena and Scotte University Hospital has notified, “Online romance scams are a modern form of fraud that have spread in Western societies along with the development of social media. Through a fictitious Internet profile, the scammer develops a romantic relationship with the victim for 6-8 months, building a deep emotional bond with the aim of extorting economic resources in a manipulative dynamic.”

The research revealed that there are two notable features that might lead to underestimation of the number of cases:

  1. Firstly, the double trauma of losing money and a relationship
  2. Secondly, the victim’s shame upon discovery of the scam

As per the research by Pozza, “Sixty-three percent of social media users and 3% of the general population report having been a victim at least once. Women, middle-aged people, and individuals with higher tendencies to anxiety, romantic idealization of affective relations, impulsiveness and susceptibility to relational addiction are at higher risk of being victims of the scam. Understanding the psychological characteristics of victims and scammers will allow at-risk personality profiles to be identified and prevention strategies to be developed.”

Over the last decade, nearly about 1400 dating sites/chats have been created in North America alone, the researcher added. Solely in the UK, 23 percent of Internet users have met someone online with whom they had a romantic relationship for a certain period and that even 6 percent of married couples met through the web.

As per a recent report by Research and Markets, the global online dating market has witnessed continuous growth in the past few years and is expected to augment even further during the forecast period (2020-2024). The market is expected to be driven by various growth-enhancing factors such as rising internet penetration, increasing smartphone penetration, rising single adults population, changing perception of online dating, etc.

Soon, a reusable sensor could detect COVID-19 in just 60 seconds

Soon, a reusable sensor could detect COVID-19 in just 60 seconds

With the COVID-19 pandemic grappling the world, ‘testing’ is the new mantra to contain the outbreak of the coronavirus. Now, it seems that people could soon use a reusable sensor to detect the COVID-19 in mere 60 second. In order to develop a portable, reusable coronavirus sensor that people can always carry with them, University of Utah electrical and computer engineering professor Massood Tabib-Azar has received a $200,000 National Science Foundation Rapid Response Research (RAPID) grant.

The sensor, about the size of a quarter, works with a cellphone and can detect COVID-19 in just 60 seconds. As Tabib-Azar has already developed the technology—and a prototype—to detect the Zika virus, an official blog post on the University of Utah website stated that “he said he could have a prototype of the new COVID-19 sensor for clinical trials in two to three months.”

According to Massood Tabib-Azar: “It can be made to be a standalone device, but it can also be connected to a cellphone. Once you have it connected either wirelessly or directly, you can use the cellphone software and processor to give a warning if you have the virus.”

In April this year, Tabib-Azar along with Subhashish Dolai got two papers published in IEEE Sensors Journal. Mind you! The technology, which is based on a sensor Tabib-Azar first began developing for the NSF about a year ago to detect the Zika virus, involves just a drop of saliva and can produce results in a minute. Tabib-Azar is now converting the same technology to work with COVID-19.

In an official blog post on the University of Utah website, it was revealed, “The sensor would use single-strand DNA called aptamers in the sensor that would attach to the proteins in the COVID-19 virus molecule if it is present. A person would plug the small sensor into the cellphone’s power jack and launch an app made for the device. To test for the presence of the virus, the user would place a drop of saliva on the sensor, and the results would appear on the phone.”

Moreover, this sensor could also test for the virus on the surface of something, like a table or desk, by brushing a swab on the surface and then on the sensor, the blog post added. Besides this, it was also notified that this amazing technology by Tabib-Azar could help detect the presence of COVID-19 in floating microscopic particles in the air in enclosed spaces such as an elevator.

Mind you! Up until now the virus is not considered not airborne, but numerous researches are being done to discover if minute particles of the virus can hang in floating droplets in the air. Therefore, “if the virus is present, the DNA strands in the sensor would bind to the virus’ proteins and electrical resistance is measured in the device, signaling a positive result,” the blog post added

Now if you wondering about the structure of this sensor that could help you detect the COVID-19 pandemic, Tabib-Azar has stated that the sensor would include an array of tiny devices inside it. Each of these tiny devices will come fitted with a DNA strand that looks for a different protein. A specific combination of proteins would be unique to just COVID-19, he added.

Tabib-Azar further added that “By increasing the number of devices and single-strand DNA, we can increase the sensor’s accuracy and reduce the false positives and false negatives.”

What’s more interesting is that the sensor is designed to be reusable as it can destroy the previous sample on it by producing a small electrical current that could heat up and remove or disintegrate the virus. All that this the entire process would require is a little battery power from the smartphones, said Tabib-Azar.

The researcher at the University of Utah also talked about “another possible method would involve putting the saliva sample on disposable sheets that are placed on top of the sensor like a sticky note. This would decrease cross-contamination on the sensor and eliminate the need to heat up and destroy the sample afterward.”

In addition to these impressive testing techniques, it was stated that researchers across the world can get a clearer and more accurate picture of where hotspots are with big outbreaks of the virus the device also can be designed to upload the results to a central server that maps out positive results in an area.

YouTube vs TikTok: TikTok rating plummets drastically after YouTube pulls down CarryMinati’s video

Internet is witnessing an unending online war between YouTubers and TikTok fans since the recent past. Now what has added fuel to the fire is the removal of CarryMinati’s viral video from YouTube for violating its terms of service. Soon after the video titled as ‘YouTube vs TikTok: The End’ was  taken down, CarryMinati’s fan stormed the Internet to wage a war against TikTok by bringing down its rating which now stands at 2 as against 4.5 rating earlier on Google Play Store.

In the ‘YouTube vs TikTok: The End’, which has now been removed, CarryMinati roasted Amir Mumbai-based TikToker Amir Siddique for his earlier posted TikTok video where he had accused YouTubers of plagiarising TikTok content.

In another recent video on , CarryMinati clarified that a lot of his slangs in the ‘YouTube vs TikTok: The End’ video have been taken out of context by the viewers. He tried making his image clear by stating that people are understanding his words in their own respective ways.

CarryMinati, who has more than 18 million subscribers on YouTube, is drawing support from his fans and celebrities including Mukesh Khanna who defended CarryMinati via a video stating “I support CarryMinati  who raised his voice against TikTok. His video has been deleted from YouTube which is wrong according to me. If video has to be deleted, then all objectionable video content should be removed.”

“Along with this, I would also like to advise Carry Minati to choose his words and sentences carefully. Avoid using words or sentences that would hurt others feeling. People love and support you, therefore choosing right words is extremely important. Many a times, by using wrong world, we stand incorrect even if we are right,” added Khanna.

“We are familiar with Roasting format. We like him because of slang. In India, we have freedom of expression. Let me educate you like Pitamah educated Arjun of Dwapar Yug. Abusing is not freedom of expression. It does not give you freedom to say something which can hurt feelings and sentiments of others. Let me add something from my side too. People have this wrong notion abusing, using slang language adds more weightage to what we say. This is wrong!

Motorola Edge+ with curved, 90Hz display set to launch today in India

Motorola is all set to introduce its new premium device in India. Today the company is going to launch Motorola Edge+ in the country that is going to rival all the latest flagship devices being offered by OnePlus, Xiaomi and Samsung. To recall the smartphone was launched in the US last month. This smartphone is the company’s first device to come with a waterfall curved hole punch design display. As the Edge+ is being teased on the e-commerce Flipkart website the company is expected to begin taking pre-orders from today onwards only just after the official launch.

Motorola Edge+ expected Pricing and Availability

The Flipkart’s teaser page suggests that the Flagship Motorola Edge+ is going to be unveiled in India today. However, it did not reveal more details related to its sale as well as pricing. At the time of the global launch, the company introduced two devices under the Motorola Edge series Motorola Edge+ and Motorola Edge which is the toned-down variant of Edge+. But the e-commerce website, as well as the company’s official social media channels, are only testing Edge+ which means the company will only launch this device to take on its rivals OnePlus 8, Xiaomi Mi 10 5G and Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra. The smartphone is going to be launched via an online launch event that will begin at 12 Noon onwards. The launch event will be live-streamed across all its social media channels via its official YouTube channel.

As for the pricing the company has not revealed the pricing of the mobile phone which will be revealed at the launch event only. Like we mentioned earlier also Motorola Edge+ was launched late in April last month it was introduced in the US market with a price tag of $999 that translates to Rs 75,534 as per the Indian currency. So we are expected to see similar pricing in India also. But as many smartphone companies have brought their flagships in the country at reduced pricing like OnePlus 8 series there is a possibility that the Lenovo owned Motorola could also skip going aggressive. However, we should wait for the actual price reveal.

Motorola Edge+ specifications

Motorola Edge+ runs Android 10 with a stock Android UI. The flagship phone comes with a curved 6.7-inch full-HD+ OLED display with 90Hz refresh rate and HDR10+ certification. It is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 SoC paired with 12GB of LPDDR5 RAM and 256GB of non-expandable UFS 3.0 storage.
