Mudvayne Releasing Ironically-Named Album

...because I'd rather see Julianne Hough's cleavage than a pic of Mudvayne

It’s going to be called Playlist: The Very Best of Mudvayne and according ThePRP, will be in stores for your commercial consumption come October 11.

The title is ironic only in that Mudvayne sucks. Why would I want the best of suckery? No thanks.

I’d rather hack Julianne Hough’s iPhone.

For those of you who do care about Mudvayne, here’s the dope: The album will boast 14 songs. Really? Fucking 14? They’ve had that many hits? Or singles, rather? I don’t know much about their music — only that it’s pure shite.

So, what songs will be on Mudvayne’s latest attempt to get their stupid fans to throw their money away? “Dull Boy,” of course. And “Dig,” and “Do What You Do.”

The rest of the disc’s rounded out by the songs “Beautiful And Strange,” “Determined,” “Scream With Me,” “World So Cold,” “Death Blooms,” “Fall into Sleep,” “-1,” “1000 Mile Journey,” and last but certainly not least, “Happy?“

“Rock Of Ages” Is A Box Office Bomb

Julianne Hough, who is in the film

I knew no one was going to care about this stupid fucking movie.

There are no original movie ideas left, or at least not any that Hollywood’s willing to take a gamble on. That’s why they adapt every fucking musical that generates some interest.

“Rock of Ages,” which starred Tom Cruise, Alec Baldwin, Russell Brand and a bunch of hot broads, earned a dismal $15.1 million at the box office in its opening weekend.

The film reportedly cost $75 million to produce, making it highly unlikely that it will match its production budget domestically.

“Rock Of Ages” did not excited overseas audiences either. It grossed $4.1 million from 10 markets. It came in #3 in the U.K. and Australia, earning $1.7 million and $1.4 million, respectively.

This makes me so happy. I didn’t want to see “Rock of Ages” on stage and I sure as fuck don’t wanna see it on the big screen.

In fact, I won’t even be watching that shit when it’s on Starz in a month.

Created by a Chinese-based investment company Tencent Holdings Limited, WeChat is one of the most popular messaging apps for the Android and iOS devices in various parts of the world.

The app has a number of features that beat most of the famous apps in the App Store. While this app was designed for mobile devices, you can install it over your desktop computer with the aid of Bluestacks Android Emulator.

Among the incredible features that set WeChat apart from other similar apps is that it combines chat with social networking. It allows users to explore and meet new friends around the globe. WeChat is getting famous as it makes things free and fun between peers.

Features of WeChat Social Networking App

The growing popularity of the app definitely shows us that this app has something special that sets it apart from the rest. Here are some of its best features!

Bring on the moments

Just like your Facebook public album, WeChat lets you share your photos, videos and even comments with the whole world. The feature allows you to customize your profile with an image or picture and a cover photo. Just like Instagram, the function has filters and you can tag friends, add comments, etc.

Backup

There is no need for you to worry about your conversation being forgotten or your files getting corrupted. WeChat stores your data in its cloud-based server. It also assures all its users worldwide, of a secure and reliable social networking platform.

Emoticons

Who doesn’t love emoticons? Emoticons can enhance online communication considerably. Online communication is not all about sending and receiving texts and calls. It is also about expressing emotion. WeChat emoticons are a bit different from WhatsApp emoticons. It gives you the ability to take any of your photos, convert, save and send it as an emoticon. Where else can you get this awesome feature?

The Drift Bottle

The Drift Bottle is like a game. If you have a message that you want to share with anyone anywhere around the world, you can place that message in a Drift Bottle and throw it into the sea. If someone sees that a drift bottle is lying in the sea, he/she can pick it up and reply back to you. You can also pick bottles tossed into the ocean by other users.

WeChat Shake

This is just another unique feature. This feature allows you to shake your phone. As you do that, if there are some users anywhere in the world shaking their phones at that time, their names will appear on your list. In simple terms, it is a situation where two or more people perform the same task simultaneously.

Web Chat

You do not have to rely on your phone to chat on WeChat. You can access WeChat on your desktop computer. Just log into your profile via your computer and continue having fun with your friends.

Many people have started using WeChat on their Smartphones. It is like they are beginning to like this app more than Whatsapp and Viber. But this is not an end. We are going to enjoy more wonders of technology with the future improvements of WeChat.

Android 5.1.1 Lollipop To Run On Samsung Galaxy Note 4 – Features and Specs

According to a report from SamMobile, Samsung’s Galaxy Note 4 will be upgraded to Android 5.1.1 and the testing is programmed to happen soon. This fall, the Korean company will release the Note 5, most likely with Android M. We have reasons to believe that the 5.1.1 update will roll out to the Note 4 phablets starting from next month.

Android 5.1.1 isn’t available for Galaxy S6 or S6 Edge yet, and it’s curious that SamMobile has received AnTuTu benchmarks with the Note 4 running on Android 5.1.1, considering that the latest two flagships have a bigger importance than the Note 4 phablet. The Samsung-focused blog also said that the company will test a 64-bit build on this phablet, and this seems hard to believe, considering that the Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge are still waiting for the 5.1.1 OTA update.

The International Business Times said that currently, there’s no specific date for the actual release of this update, because Samsung is still testing yet, while Christian Today believes that Samsung decided to release an update for the Note 4 because the phablet is very popular.

Gotta Be Mobile thinks that 5.1.1 update will fix many bugs found in 4.4.4 Kitkat OS in the Note 4 and in addition, the new version will unlock new capabilities. The users will have a Guest Mode to allow “intruders” to access their phones without checking private files, photos, music or videos. Also, the camera software of the Note 4 will be improved, allowing the users to tweak with exposure settings when capturing images. There is also a speculation according to which the Note 4 will have RAW support and shutter speed control.

The Galaxy Note 4 was released in October 2014, it has a 5.7inches Super AMOLED screen that supports 1440×2560 pixels, and has two variants of processors: a Qualcomm Snapdragon 805 powered by a quad-core 2.7GHz Krait 450 processor and an Exynos 5433 octa core processors consisting of a quad-core 1.3GHz Cortex-A53 CPU and a quad-core 1.9GHz Cortex-A57 CPU. Both variants support 3GB of RAM and have 32GB of internal storage, expandable up to 128GB. The rear camera has a resolution of 16MP and the front one is 3.7MP.

WhatsApp Voice Calls Disable Guide – Video Calling Feature Soon

Currently, WhatsApp has over 800 million active users and there are more and more people installing this application on their smartphones everyday. Back in January 2015, there were a lot of rumors saying that the WhatsApp application will receive Voice Calling feature. This happened one month later for Android, and a few months later, it was available for BlackBerry 10, iOS and now it’s tested on Windows Phones. But not all users want to make voice calls and want to disable this feature.

Disabling WhatsApp Voice Calling feature

Even if many users just wanted for this feature to be added, it seems that there others who don’t even like it, because they have friends who are making abuse of this new feature and annoy them with Voice Calls every now and then. We’re pretty sure that you have at least one annoying friend on your WhatsApp friend list who calls you at least two-three times per day for telling you useless things.

Well, the good news is that you can now disable the Voice Calling feature with an application. The application is called “Disable WhatsApp Calls” and it can be downloaded and installed directly from the Google Play Store.

After installing this application, you will need to open it and enable it. The application also comes with a few other options. You can set it to just make calls or receive calls and you can even disable the annoying notifications.

It’s strange how we are waiting for a feature for so much time and when it is released, we realize that it is quite annoying and we need to find ways to disable it.

WhatsApp Video Calling feature

We remind you that there are rumors which say that the WhatsApp developers will bring the Video Calling feature to their application. Now, as expected, there are users who can’t wait for this feature to be added, but we’re pretty sure that there will be many people who will disable it as soon as it gets released. Well, we will probably find that out in the upcoming months.

Moto G (2015) Latest Rumors – Best Budget Phone to be Ready in July

The original Moto G was the best budget phone on the market for quite some time.

With the competition heating up, Motorola vastly improved the second generation of its device. Now, more than ever, the pressure is on Motorola to deliver even better performance with the Moto G (2015). Here are the latest rumors, including release date, price and specs.

Release Date and Price Rumors

There are two possible rumors regarding the release date of the Moto G (2015). The first one suggests that a July release is very plausible. The rumor is backed up by the 10-month cycle of the original and second generation of Moto G. However, such launches are rare, and it is more likely that Motorola will stick to the one year cycle. The second rumor suggests an August release, which is more likely to happen. Motorola will look to avoid the crowd at the IFA event in Berlin, where Samsung will release the Galaxy Note 5. The rumors suggest Motorola will look to present Moto G (2015) few weeks earlier, which is August.

As for the price, the Moto G has always packed similar specs to the Moto X of the previous year, but with a much lower price. That said, at the moment, the rumored price of the Moto G (2015) is in the range of $175 to $250.

Specs Rumors

As mentioned, it is likely that the Moto G (2015) will pack similar if not identical specs as the Moto X (2014). That said, rumors suggest a 5.2-inch display with HD resolution, 64-bit chipset from Qualcomm, 2 GB RAM and a camera combination of 10-MP in the back and 5-MP on the front. We must note that there are rumors about a possible 5-inch full HD display with 16-MP rear camera. However, those are just too good to be true, as the Moto G (2015) would be entering flagship territory with those specs.

Why Choose WhatsApp For Your Marketing Campaign?

It seems like there is a new messenger app popping up every month.

It is almost impossible to keep track of them all and it is also hard to choose the right one for your marketing campaigns. However, WhatsApp is without doubt the most popular instant messaging app in the world at the moment. WhatsApp has over 800 million monthly active users. The app made news headlines when social networking giant Facebook purchased it for a whopping $19 billion. Today, however, it is in the news for completely different reasons. Each and every business is using WhatsApp as a campaign tool to generate marketing leads. So why choose the app for your marketing campaigns?

WhatsApp is cheap to use

While the app is not completely free, it is almost free. The service is free for the first year and thereafter costs 0.99 dollars per year. It allows you to send as many messages as you want. There is no limit at all. It is a cross-platform instant messaging service for Android, iOS, Blackberry, Nokia and Windows Phone. Apart from text messaging, you can send videos, images and audio messages for free. And using the app is very easy. You do not have to go to a website to sign up or log into your account. It just needs your mobile number.

Global Accessibility

Through WhatsApp, a business can target international audience. There are many global brands that look for ways to reach their global audience. WhatsApp has allowed them to reach their customers no matter where they are at the click of a button.

Quick Response

WhatsApp has proven to be an effective tool when it comes to customer service. If a business has a dedicated WhatsApp number, customers can get their questions answered in real time by just sending their queries via the app. This is especially practical for smaller businesses that have a smaller customer base.

Also quick customer support can help keep the reputation of your brand intact. For example, a conversation between the customer support and an unhappy customer will be private and will not affect the reputation of the product, brand or business in any way.

Better features than conventional SMS

From simple texts, to audio files to pictures, WhatsApp supports different message types. Typically, an MMS message would cost some money to send, but WhatsApp lets its users send these messages to as many people as they like, for free.

In addition to this, you can send the location of your store, audio messages, product images, product videos, etc. to your customers and prospects worldwide. As you can see, this messenger app supports nearly everything.

Group Chat

You can start your own WhatsApp group and invite your customers to join. This can help you stay connected with your customer base at all times.

Conclusion

WhatsApp is a great marketing tool and can do almost everything an SMS or e-mail campaign could do. Moreover, WhatsApp enjoys a huge user base and it is pretty addictive too. Users can’t take their hands off their Smartphones due to this messaging app. This app could be an efficient way to reach and engage (especially) with the younger generation.

  • Next take your or your friend’s iPhone and install the latest version of Whatsapp on it. With that done, register on the app using the same number by which you will use WhatsApp on your iPad or iPod touch.
  • A confirmation message will be sent to your mobile phone, then the app will start functioning.
  • In the next step you will have to unplug your iPad from your computer and plug-in the iPhone instead.
  • Now you will have to go to iFunbox, then go to user applications, and copy the documents and library folder to the desktop.
  • Now on the iPad, load the registration data, and unplug the iPhone phone and re-plug the iPad or iPod touch. In the fun box, click on to user’s application iPad’s entry and replace the document and library folders in here with the ones on the desktop.
  • The tough part is over. Now all you have to do is start using WhatsApp on your iPad or iPod touch. There may be a few glitches here and there, but there should not be a big problem if you take care to follow all the steps correctly.

iOS 9 Beta 1 Downgrade to iOS 8.3 on iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch

Apple has released the iOS 9 BETA 1 for the developer community a few days ago and the developers already found some nice interesting features that iOS 9 comes with.

However, in case you are a developer and you’ve decided to install the iOS 9 BETA 1 to take a first look over the features, then we’re pretty sure that you’re already “tired” of how many bugs this new iOS 9 BETA version comes with. There are some serious issues related to the battery life, which will most likely make you downgrade back to iOS 8.3.

Well, today we’re going to explain you how you can downgrade from iOS 9 BETA 1 back to the iOS 8.3, which is the latest stable version of the iOS 8.

Downgrading from iOS 9 BETA 1 to iOS 8.3

First of all, you will need to create a backup of your iOS 9 device on iTunes. After that, you will need to disable the “Find MY iPhone” security feature from the iCloud section. Now, download the iOS 8.3 firmware for your iPod, iPad or iPhone device. Once the download finishes, connect the device to your desktop PC/Mac and open iTunes.

You will need to put your device into Device Firmware Mode (DFU) by pressing the power and home buttons simultaneously for about 10 seconds and, after that, release the power button and continue pressing the home button. iTunes will let you know when the device is in DFU mode.

Once you are in DFU mode, you will need to tap on the “Restore iPhone/iPod/iPad” button and follow the on-screen prompts to successfully restore the device.

In case you want to install the iOS 9 on your iPhone device, but you’re not a developer, then you should know that Apple is planning to release a public beta of iOS 9 sometime in July 2015. By then, most of the current bugs that are found on iOS 9 BETA 1 will be fixed and the new OS will most likely run pretty smoothly.

Are you going to install the iOS 9 BETA on your device once it gets public? Did you test iOS 9 BETA 1 on your iPhone yet?

One month ago, we didn’t know anything sure about this game. Hell, we didn’t even know that the game was truly under development. However, as expected, Bethesda did a great job for keeping things as secret as possible.

The trailer that Bethesda released a few days ago confirmed that the game is under development and back then we’ve told you that the game will most likely be released in the middle of 2016, but probably not sooner than that. As we’ve told you, Bethesda is going to come with some information regarding this game. We hoped that the developer will come with an extended trailer of Fallout 4, but it was even better, they’ve released a gameplay trailer of Fallout 4. Before we’ll tell you more good news about this upcoming game, take a look at this gameplay trailer:

Are you excited enough? Oh well, we’ve got even better news for you! This game will be released before Christmas! According to Bethesda, the Fallout 4 game will be released on November 10, 2015 and can be already pre-ordered from Amazon, GameStop, Steam and other online stores for 59.99 dollars!

In Fallout 4 you will be able to build your own shelter, defend it and do several jobs for certain traders that can give some of the best items in the game. However, you will need to complete certain tasks for them. The game also features power generators, which you will use to power lights, defensive turrets etc. It is good to know that you may have multiple settlements and even make trade run caravans between them.

In Fallout 4, you will also have a dog companion that you will be able to control and give certain commands.

Fallout 4: released in 2015

As we’ve told you above, the Fallout 4 is going to be released on November 10, 2015. Usually, a big budget game is never released in the same year after being announced, but it seems that the development of this game is way more advanced than we’ve all expected.

During the pre-E3 2015 event, Bethesda also talked about the other games such as: Doom (as expected) and Dishonored 2 but without any doubts, the Fallout 4 game was the “star” of the event.

Real Pip-Boy for the gamers who buys the Fallout 4 collector’s edition

The developers of the Fallout 4 game have worked on a mobile application that will work on iOS and Android and it will be released on November 10. However, the interesting part if you buy the Fallout 4: Collector’s Edition is that you will get a Pip-Boy wrist. You will be able to insert your mobile phone in it, open the Pip-Boy application and “feel” that you are using the in-game wrist.

In case you didn’t make an idea about how this application will work, take a look at this video:

<iframe width=”560″ height=”315″ src=”https://www.youtube.com/embed/FOBrufGe1aU” frameborder=”0″ allowfullscreen></iframe>

Fallout 4’s equipment crafting system comes with 50 base weapons and 700 mods. You will be able to modify your own layered power armor and Bethesda insisted that they’ve made some important improvements to this.

The Fallout 4 will be released for Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and Windows PC. As expected, the developers are starting to leave the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 consoles. In case you didn’t get your Xbox One or PlayStation 4 yet, we encourage you to do it or else you will not be able to play the upcoming games.

WhatsApp APK Latest Version Release – How to Download and Install to Get the Latest Features Beforehand?

WhatsApp is no new app to any smartphone user.

This app has a massive following of more than 800 million people and the most interesting thing about this figure is that all of these people use the app actively throughout the month.

In the recent past, WhatsApp has been receiving many updates and major changes as well. Towards the end of last year, encryption of messages came in. There was the introduction of message delivery reports again towards the end of last and when this year started, the app saw the introduction of a new WhatsApp Web PC client which allows the users to chat on PCs and tablets. This update was then followed by a much awaited feature – WhatsApp voice calling.

WhatsApp voice calls have been the trending thing in the past few months. The feature first showed up on Android and it was later imported to iOS, BlackBerry and now the Windows Phone users are beta testing it. This change has seen the app receive a new interface that includes calling, there is also support for transfer of funds and somewhere along the way we saw Facebook introduce the ability to create WhatsApp backups on Google Drive as well, although the feature disappeared into thin air.

With these many improvements and new features, there is definitely more to come. But how can you know that these features are coming to your platform? Well, there is no better way of staying ahead of your pals in the game than keeping an eye on the beta releases of WhatsApp. You can easily get a WhatsApp APK from the official website of the app and install it on your Android device without any problem. This will grant you full access to any feature that is yet to be released by WhatsApp, but is in progress, being developed for the public.

WhatsApp APK files are not available in the Google Play Store

The Google Play Store is the official Android Market for Android devices. All apps must be downloaded from this store if you want to be sure with every aspect of the app, be it performance, security, stability, among others. However, since the latest versions of WhatsApp beta are usually APK files, there is no chance of finding it in the store.

How and where to download WhatsApp APK

To get hold of one, you must visit the official app website or other third party websites like apkmirror.com to download the app. However, you’ll still need to make some changes to the settings of your phone if you want to install the app. These changes involve heading to the Security settings of your phone and while in there, check out for the option labeled “Unknown sources” and check it. Make sure this option is unchecked once you are done with installing the latest WhatsApp APK.

Another way of having full access to WhatsApp APK files is by becoming a fully-fledged WhatsApp beta tester. This means you have to be a member of the beta testing program such that whenever there is a beta version of the app available, you will be notified and you can then try the app by installing it.

After the unknown sources option has been enabled, head back to the Apps settings and tap on All apps. While in there, find your currently installed WhatsApp and tap on it. Go ahead and uninstall it from the phone so as to allow the installation of the beta file. However, make sure you create a backup of your messages just in case you want them back on your WhatsApp APK.

The iPhone 6 Plus is one of the best phones on the market.

When Apple released the phablet last year, it was greeted with huge expectations, and the company managed to fulfil almost all of them. One area that is constantly a concern with iPhones and Apple’s products is battery life. That was one of the issues of the iPhone 6 Plus as well, but it seems like the new, iOS 9 update will sort things out.

Battery Life of iPhone 6 Plus

The iPhone 6 Plus features a non-removable 2915 mAh battery that has proven to last up to 10 hours with moderate usage. According to the company’s statistics, the phone should last 384 hours on standby, offer 24 hours of talk time and up to 80 hours of music play. But in reality, the iPhone 6 fails to achieve those lofty standards. Forums are full with complaints about battery life, and most users have to charge the iPhone 6 Plus twice in the day.

The iOS 9 Update

With the iOS 9 update, Apple will look to improve vastly battery life on its devices, the iPhone 6 Plus included. For starters, Apple will add proximity sensor to the latest version of its operating system. The sensor will turn the screen off when your phone is faced down. The screen will be off even when notifications arrive. The sensor will save at least one hour of battery usage. Additionally, Apple will install a Low Power Mode, or what Android users know as Power Battery Saving mode. When the mode is activated, the brightness of the screen is lowered, push notifications are disabled, the screen goes to sleep faster than usual, background apps are turned off and the sensors are turned off. But as a trade-off, users get three more hours of their iPhone 6 Plus.

Meanwhile, Sony introduced the PlayStation Now, a streaming platform for subscription available for PS4 owners who want to play titles originally released on PlayStation 3. As the costs of implementation and improvement of such a system seems too large, Microsoft chose the easier variant to provide the same level of compatibility with old titles that have enchanted on Xbox 360.

At the E3 2015 conference held these days in Los Angeles, Phil Spencer announced that starting this winter you can use the Xbox 360 game discs on Xbox One. Besides crowd at the event did not know how to express enthusiasm regarding this news, further details were lovely too. In the first propagation phase, over 100 titles will be supported, and in the first part of next year to approach 200 of them. Currently, Microsoft is working hard with developers to achieve the updates for those titles in hopes of avoiding any compatibility issues. It is important to note that the announcement is valid for online games as well as the disk ones.

After multiple messages from fans, this news is one of the best for Xbox fans. It remains to see if Sony will ever implement something similar.

Skype is a free app with video chat, voice chat and text chat functionality.

The application is not only available in desktops, but for the Android and iOS devices, as well. It comes at no cost and it is without doubt one of the most useful apps you can install on your Smartphone or tablet.

Skype Key Features  

Instant Messaging: Skype allows you to send and receive instant messages for free. It works similar to other messenger apps like WhatsApp, Google Hangouts and Viber. When text chatting, you share pictures and documents as well.

Skype voice chat: If you dislike typing long text messages, you can switch to Skype voice chat. Skype has a calling feature that lets the users call their local and international friends for free. It is like talking over your cell phone, except carrier rates do not apply.

Ease of Use  

The Skype mobile application comes with a very user friendly interface and simple layout. The app is extremely easy to use, even if you are using it for the first time. It is easy to set it up, although it will ask you to set a username and password. Apart from that, there’s nothing you have to worry about.

How to Install Skype on Your Mobile Device

As aforesaid, calls are free on Skype. You only pay if you make calls to regular mobile phones or landlines. Fortunately, Skype rates are far cheaper when compared to traditional cell phone and landline rates. This is especially true when making international calls.

YouTube provides a platform where you can actually earn by posting videos.

However, the task can be quite grueling especially if you want instant success. If you would like to know how to get paid on YouTube, understand there is quite a process before you can earn anything from posting videos on your YouTube channel.

You need a lot of viewers and subscribers if you are to be paid by YouTube. YouTube is a destination for mass audiences that if grabbed, can help you earn a decent amount of money. Usually, you get paid by the number of views and ad clicks your video attracts. Most importantly, it should have an instant impact the moment you upload it.

When your video gets a high number of views, you get an offer to become a partner. You should also demonstrate beyond reasonable doubt that you can generate unique and most importantly popular content. To become a partner is not a walk in the park, and you need content that can generate traffic of 100,000 to 2000,000 views very quickly.

Another way you can make money on YouTube is by generating backlinks. You can place them below the video you have uploaded on YouTube. Links that lead to your website from popular videos can bring tons of traffic to the website. If it is a business website with products and services, traffic means money. If you do not sell anything on your website, you can consider affiliate marketing or adsense. You can place links to other people’s products within your content, where you can get paid for every purchase or click through. You can also run Google ads on the site, where you are paid for every click.

If you can make great videos, you can earn tons of cash making videos for others.  There are thousands of companies out there who are looking to tap into the traffic generated by YouTube. They would be willing to pay a tidy sum to someone who can create video content for them and upload it on YouTube. You can easily be assured of about $1-2 per 1000 visits.

The bottom line in getting paid on YouTube is generating traffic. One effective way is to accumulate subscribers to your channel. This can be done by asking your viewers to subscribe to your channel at the end of every video. When they do, they will get updates on every video you post. This way, you get more eyeballs on your videos and increase the opportunity for making money as well.  YouTube also has a fast sharing option that you can use to send your friends links to the video. You can send multiple messages to different email addresses and include a personal message if you feel like it.

Another way to publicize your videos is to post them on your blog. If your blog has a good number of followers and subscribers, you can create a link that leads them to the video on YouTube. Again, ensure you notify them about it on the blog through an interesting post.

WhatsApp Download Available For Windows Phone With MP3 Files

WhatsApp is an application that is evolving with the speed of light. The latest feature that it received is Voice Calling and it was released for Android, BlackBerry 10 and iOS. Currently, the Voice Calling feature is being tested on the latest WhatsApp BETA version.

However, we’ve noticed a new feature on the latest WhatsApp BETA version for Windows Phone! It seems that, now, you can send and receive MP3 files on WhatsApp! This feature has been requested by many WhatsApp users for quite a while and it seems that the developers finally decided to give it a try.

According to Emanuele Mancae, a well known WhatsApp tester for Windows Phone, the latest BETA version of this application allows you save files and MP3 songs. The files are automatically saved to the Pictures folder, but we’re pretty sure that the developers will change the destination to another folder.

We think that once the application will reach the STABLE “form”, you will be able to save MP3 files to a separate folder (probably named “MP3”) and other files such as .doc, .exe etc to another folder (probably named “Files”).

We’re not sure when this new WhatsApp version will get from BETA to STABLE, but hopefully that will happen in the next days. For now, we’re not sure what will be the maximum size that a file will be allowed to have, but the developers should think of allowing files of at least 50MB.

However, until then, we’re pretty sure that the owners of Windows Phones are waiting for the Voice Calling feature to be released on the STABLE version of WhatsApp. We think that the developers are close to ending the BETA test for that feature and they will soon release a STABLE version of WhatsApp that will have Voice Calling.

Do you think that the Voice Calling feature will be brought to WhatsApp for Windows Phone at the same time with the other feature that allows you to send all kinds of files (including MP3?)

The camera industry has several reputable players, including Canon and Sony.

Providing excellence in photography for decades, the two companies are the favorite choice of millions of individuals. With the demand for professional cameras increasing every day, both the companies have come up with high-end devices. While Canon has produced the Powershot SX700 HS, the Cyber-Shot DSC-HX50V represents the Sony family. But, which one of the two magnificent “shot” gives you an edge? Let’s find out!

Sensor

The Canon device is a CMOS type, 15.9 MP camera. The size of its sensor measures ½.3” 6.17 x 4.55 mm and light sensitivity of 3200 ISO. This is a powerful configuration for a casual photographer. However, if you are looking for more powerful sensor, the Sony CMOS type camera measures 20.4 MP. It also has a similar sensor size and light sensitivity.

When it comes to advanced sensor, the true resolution of the two cameras hit the scale at 9.7 MP. Although the true resolution is similar, there is a considerable difference in their native resolution. While the Powershot has a resolution of 4608 x 3456, the Cyber-Shot’s resolution is 5216 x 3912. Hence, Cyber-shot is a clear winner in terms of sensor.

Winner: Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-HX50V

Built and Screen

The two devices are very similar in terms of their basic build and screen. The dimension of the Powershot is 112 x 65 x 34, whereas the Cyber-Shot measures 108 x 64 x 38 mm. The Powershot and the Cyber-Shot have the depth of 1.4” and 1.5” respectively. When it comes to weight, the Canon camera measures 269 g, while the Sony device hits the scale at 272 g. Apart from this, neither of the cameras is waterproof.

In terms of screen, the two devices feature an LCD screen of 3 inches. The resolution of the Powershot is 922k dots, in comparison to Cyber-Shot’s 921k dots. Apart from this, touchscreen functionality is not present in both the devices.

Winner: Tie

Miscellaneous Features

There are several additional features in a majority of high-end cameras. When it comes to the Cyber-Shot, the camera offers panorama, HDR, 3D and GPS. None of these features are available in the Powershot. However, both the cameras have image stabilization lens.

Winner: Sony Cyber-Shot

With superiority in almost all areas of comparison, the Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-HX50V is declared as the preferable option as it gives a considerable edge over the Canon Powershot.

Viber Free Download – Can the Fastest-Growing Messenger App be Compared to WhatsApp?

The two popular messaging apps Viber and WhatsApp are very similar and at the same time very different.

WhatsApp is arguably the king of instant messaging apps that works across all mobile platforms. Viber is quite less popular than WhatsApp, but quickly gaining more users worldwide. In this article, we will compare both the apps to help those who must choose between the two applications.

Compatibility

The biggest appeal of these instant messaging apps is that they are compatible with almost all devices. Viber is available for Android. iOS, Nokia, Windows Phone 8, Blackberry as well as for PC and Mac. However, it should be noted that Viber for PC can be installed only after the latest version of the app has been installed on a mobile device. On the other hand, WhatsApp is supported on most Android, iOS, Windows, Blackberry, and Nokia Smartphones. It is worth noting that there is no WhatsApp for PC. Also, the app does not support Wi-Fi only devices. If you really need to install WhatsApp on your PC, you will need the Android emulator software to do so. BlueStacks app player is one of the best Android emulators for PC at the moment.

Sending Files

When it comes to sending files, there is no big difference between the two services. With both the applications, you can send images, audio files and videos. Remember that there is a limit on the size of the files one is allowed to send. Note that both the apps do not support doc or PDF files.

Cost

WhatsApp is free to use for the first one year but after that you have to pay $0.99 per year. You will not be charged for every message you send provided you have not exceeded your data limit. Viber service is also free. There are no monthly or annual fees. It lets you make calls and send text messages for free. Even so, mobile data charges may apply if you are not using a free Wi-Fi connection. Also, carrier charges may apply if you are calling non-Viber users.

Privacy

Both Viber and WhatsApp have implemented end-to-end encryption, a feature that makes it almost impossible for someone to read your messages, even the service providers themselves. A person can only read your messages if he or she has physical access to your device.

Voice and Video calls

Both the apps let the users make voice calls for free. Viber has already rolled out a video calling feature but WhatsApp is still working on adding this service. But it is not known when WhatsApp will launch it. For now, it is safe to assume that Viber wins when it comes to video calling.

Final Thoughts  

It is difficult to separate the difference between Viber and WhatsApp, because the two messaging apps offer almost the same features. WhatsApp wins when it comes to text messaging. Viber is far better than WhatsApp when it comes to voice and video calling; with that said, we must admit that the popularity of Viber has not yet reached the fame of WhatsApp. Perhaps Viber will overtake WhatsApp in the near future, but at the moment WhatsApp is still the app of choice for sending free texts across multiple devices.
