5 Problems WhatsApp Web Browser can't face

With more than 700 million monthly active users, there’s no doubt that WhatsApp is one of the largest mobile-focused messaging service. Most of its users are asking for PC interface for the service to stay connected with your favorite people even when they switch devices. After a long wait Whats App finally took a first step to provide its access on a PC. Even now there are several limitations attached to it as the interface is limited to a web browser.This ability to use WhatsApp in a browser, while working on a desktop, is a cool addition

1.Whatsapp doesn’t support iPhone:

WhatsApp for web essentially syncs messages between your smartphone and browser via its servers. At this time, the service does not support the iPhone. According to WhatsApp, it was unable to provide the web client to iOS users due to Apple’s platform limitations. Reports indicate that it intends to support the iPhone in the future but till then, if you use WhatsApp on an iPhone, you’ll need to peep into your phone every time you get a WhatsApp message even if you’re in front of your computer.

2.Mobile should be always on and Connected to Internet:

 User will be able to send and receive messages through your browser after pairing smart phone with WhatsApp web client through QR Code image. Sadly what’s app is only available on web browser when phone is connected to internet. So this is a drawback as phone should be connected to Internet for the web client to work

3.You Can’t Create and Leave groups:

While you can send and receive messages from groups you’re a part of, the WhatsApp web client doesn’t let you create new groups or leave existing ones. You also can’t send broadcast messages via the web client.

4.Supports only Google Chrome:

 WhatsApp web Interface is only supporting Google Chrome. This is also a drawback as many IT Environments do not support the applications if not approved by Administrators. If you are part of such environment and restricted to use chrome WhatsApp doesn’t work for you.

5.You can’t Block users:

To block users, you still need to go to the WhatsApp mobile app. The number of spam messages on WhatsApp has gone up considerably and the only way to deal with these, is to block their number. Unfortunately, the web version does not offer the block feature.

HTC’s New 5.5-inch Desire 826 Smartphone Review Specifications

HTC has announced the launch of the HTC Desire 826, which is the company’s latest smartphone in the Desire range. Years ago, HTC’s flagship devices fell under the Desire brand. In recent years, the Desire brand has been shifted to more budget oriented devices. The Desire 826 is a sibling of, and possible successor to, the Desire 820 which Launch reviewed in November. The new Desire sports a 5.5-inch display with 1080 x 1920 pixels and runs on a 64-bit Qualcomm Snapdragon 615 Octa-core processor clocked at 1.5 GHz. Aesthetically, the Desire 826 borrows a lot of features from the HTC Desire Eye, which launched a few months back.

HTC Desire 826 Smartphone Features & Specs:

At CES 2015 event, HTC has just announced HTC Desire 826 powered by the new Snapdragon 615. HTC Desire 826 features a 5.5 inch Full HD 1080p display and is powered by 1.7 GHz 64-bit Qualcommn Snapdragon 615 octa-core  processor along with Adreno 405 GPU and 2 GB of RAM. The phone runs Android 5.0 Lollipop out of the box and would be the first phone in the desire series to run Lollipop.

The Desire 826 has HTC’s signature BoomSound speakers and like the Desire Eye they are cleverly hidden beneath the screen and the top/bottom bezels. Spec wise the device looks similar to HTC Desire EYE and it comes with 13MP rear camera and a 4 Ultra pixel front facing camera for selfies. This means that you should be able to take high quality selfies in low light situations. The rear camera is a more conventional 13MP unit with a f2.0 lens.

HTC Desire 826 Full Specifications:

    5.5-inch display with 1080 x 1920 pixels
    64-bit Qualcomm Snapdragon 615 Octa-core processor clocked at 1.5 GHz
    Android 5.0 with Sense UI
    2GB RAM
    16GB storage, expandable via micro SD card
    13MP rear camera, 4 ultra pixel front camera
    2600mAh battery
    4G LTE
    Adreno 405 GPU
    Dual SIM support
    HTC BoomSound, Dual frontal stereo speakers with built-in amplifiers, Dolby Audio

Camera:

Moving on to the camera configuration, there is a 13 MP rear-facing unit, in addition to a 4 MP UltraPixel snapper at the front, which was last seen in the flagship HTC One (M8). Moreover, this handset also gets the Desire EYE software suite of camera-specific features. It also supports features like LED Flash, Video Calling & Auto focus.

 

This is the first time HTC has included the Ultrapixel camera for the front cam which should be interesting as more and more OEMs are now focusing on selfie camera.
Connectivity:  4G LTE  support, 3G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.0, GPS, Headphones, USB

Dispaly: In classic HTC fashion, the phone is attractive with Display only. HTC Desire 826 sports a 5.5-inch display with 1080 x 1920 pixels screen resolution. The dimensions are 6.22 x 3.05 x 0.31 inches (158 x 77.5 x 7.9 mm).
Battery: A 2,600mAh battery is pretty midrange for a phone this size. Performance will really depend on how efficient that chipset proves to be.
Audio: The 826 still features items like BoomSound – an HTC staple that still, we feel, is an amazing inclusion – now including Dolby audio enhancement as well.

 Hardware:

The powerhouse pumping life into the gizmo is the 64-bit Qualcomm Snapdragon 615 Octa-core processor clocked at 1.7 GHz. There is also 2GB of RAM available along with 16GB internal memory (which is expandable by virtue of memory card) and Adreno 405 GPU (Graphics processor)

 

Storage: In terms of storage, there is 16GB of flash and support for a micro SD card. The Desire 826 will be a dual-SIM device (except for in a few countries) and supports 4G LTE.

Software:

The good news is that it runs Android 5.0 with HTC Sense on top, so you won’t have to wait for HTC to make the upgrade to Lollipop. The phone runs Android 5.0 Lollipop out of the box and would be the first phone in the desire series to run Lollipop.

Price and Availability:

The HTC Desire 826 will be available with cellular operators and major retailers in Asia-Pacific at the end of January 2015 in two-tone colors including White Birch, Blue Lagoon, and Purple Fire. It comes in multiple colors, including but not limited to white, purple, and blue. There is currently no word on what to expect for pricing, but it should be similar to the launch price of the Desire 826.

Microsoft Office preview for Android tablets now available on Google Play

Back in November, Microsoft opened up early previews builds for its new mobile Office applications for Android tablets to those willing to sign up and wait for an invitation. After taking on feedback over the past couple of months, Microsoft has announced that it is expanding its preview scheme by releasing its Office applications to everyone directly through the Google Play Store.

The new Office software for mobile unifies Android, iOS, and Windows platforms. Previously each platform had to make do with its own apps, meaning that feature sets differed depending on your operating system and updates were often slow and intermittent. By unifying the Office platform, Microsoft hopes to bring updates and new features to users in a timelier manner.

There are still a couple of conditions attached to the preview builds though. Firstly, Office is still limited to ARM-based Android tablets with a screen size between 7 and 10.1 inches. Your tablet will also need to be running KitKat or Lollipop versions of Android, so users on Jelly Bean or earlier are out of luck.

If you are interested in trying out the preview builds of Microsoft’s improved office apps, here are the links for Word, Excel and PowerPoint. Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.

WhatsApp reaches 700 million active monthly users

WhatsApp, an internet based messaging service, has just announced that over 700 million users actively use its service each month. This makes the company the most popular mobile messaging service around the world, and is even more popular than Facebook Messenger. This surge in popularity comes as WhatsApp continues to dominate the Indian messaging market.

Back in August, WhatsApp claimed 600 million active users and has gained around 300 million users over the past year. The mobile messaging service was acquired by Facebook for $22 billion last year, but the social networking giant has seen losses on its investment so far, as WhatsApp’s 99-cent subscription model does not generate a large amount of revenue. WhatsApp saw losses of approximately $230 million in the first half of last year and generated revenue of only $15 million.

Facebook CEO, Mark Zuckerberg, expects that WhatApps will end up contributing to Facebook’s profits, eventually. However, he does not expect this to happen until the app’s regular user base reaches the one billion mark. Based on this recent rate of growth, WhatApp could reach this milestone before the end of 2015.

WhatsApp still has plenty of room for growth in markets where it currently isn’t a major player, such as the US or China. However, temping customers away from their current services may prove more difficult.

How to Get and Install Windows 10

Rumors about the next-gen Windows started shortly after Microsoft Build 2014, where the company released Windows 8.1 Update. Will it be called "Threshold" or "Windows 9" or simply "Windows"? Well, most of that was wrong: Windows 10 was announced at an enterprise computing event in San Francisco this week, and a technical preview followed the next day.
You can get Windows 10 now, but beware, it's a very early and unstable software build. I tested on a Surface Pro 3£1,049.95 at Amazon and not only did I see stability problems such as error messages when trying to run standard programs, but some features didn't work as expected. For example, the Charms no longer appeared when I pointed the mouse to the top-right corner of the screen (even though I'd set this option in Control Panel), and some window arrangements didn't look right.
To check out the major features of Microsoft's upcoming operating system, which is expected to arrive in 2015, check out PCMag's First Look at Windows 10 and 5 Reasons You'll Want Windows 10, as well as the video below. Then, if you're ready to take the plunge, follow the directions under the video.

Installing Windows 10 Technical Preview

Getting and installing the new OS was surprisingly simple, when starting from a Windows 8.1 PC. No going to the Windows Store or installing preliminary Windows Update packs as previous preview versions have required. And it's not as time-consuming as Windows installations have been in the past. It took less than 20 minutes. Ready? Lets begin!

1. Choose a PC you don't need for everyday use. Windows 10 Technical Preview is a very preliminary build, so you should not install it on a PC you need to use regularly. It's just for trying out the operating system and sending feedback to Microsoft so that the company can improve the final release. On that note, don't expect privacy on the test Windows 10 PC: Microsoft will examine system files in trying to rectify the problem code. Back up any files on the test PC that you may need. The OS doesn't require a touch screen, though it does support them, albeit Microsoft claims touch support is unpolished. Also note that you may not be able to revert to an earlier version of Windows after this installation.

 2. Check the specs for your test PC. If you're running Windows 8.1, there should be no problem. You can test for compatibility by downloading and running the Windows 8.1 Upgrade Assistant. In general, requirements aren't at all arduous. Here are Micro

soft's minimum system specs:

   • Processor: 1 gigahertz (GHz) or faster with support for PAE, NX, and SSE2

   • RAM: 1 gigabyte (GB) (32-bit) or 2 GB (64-bit)

   • Hard disk space: 16 GB (32-bit) or 20 GB (64-bit)

   • Graphics card: Microsoft DirectX 9 graphics device with WDDM driver

3. Head to preview.windows.com and sign up for the Windows Insider Program. You'll need to sign in to a Microsoft account, such as an Outlook.com email account. Once you're signed in, click the "Get started" button. You'll need to accept the Terms of Use and Privacy Statement. The next page tells you, "Congrats, you're an Insider." On the next page displayed, click on "Install Technical Preview." At this point, it's obligatory for me to tell you to make sure the power cord stays plugged in, lest you computer shuts down mid-install.

4. What appears next depends on whether you're running Windows 8.x or an earlier version of the OS. If you're running an earlier version of Windows, you'll see a purple "Get the upgrade" button:

If you're running Windows 8.x, you'll instead see a list of ISO disk image file downloads.

I recommend installing with an ISO disk image file. If you do run the setup on a pre-Windows 8 PC, it will prompt you to restart; but don't fret if you've clicked the button unintentionally and don't want to update the PC; it just adds an option to update after the reboot.

5. Download the ISO disk image file for your system type. These are available in 32-bit and 64-bit flavors, and I recommend the latter for any PC with a 64-bit processor, which means pretty much any PC less than five years old. There are also three language choices: English (with U.S. and U.K. options), Chinese, and Portuguese.

6. Create startup USB with USB Download Toolkit. You could also burn the .ISO file to a DVD, but these days USB keys are widely available and the target PC may not have a disc drive. I used the trusty Microsoft USB download tool, which you can download from CodePlex, Microsoft's open-source resource site.

7. Insert the USB key into the test PC. Then run setup.exe. You need to enter the serial number from the Technical Preview page to get started. For reference, it's NKJFK-GPHP7-G8C3J-P6JXR-HQRJR.

8. Sit back and watch the installation. First you'll see a small message box that says "Preparing" with a percentage counter:

9. Next, you'll have to accept the license terms.

10. You'll see a larger window saying that the installer is checking whether you're ready:

11. If all goes well, the window's text will change to "Ready to install." It will also say (if you're installing on Windows 8.x) that your personal files, settings, and apps will be kept, with an option to change what's kept.

12. Now the installation proper begins. The window text will change to say "Installing Windows Technical Preview."

This takes several minutes, and then the PC restarts, for the first time. After that, you see a screen saying "Setting Up," with a percentage counter. Another reboot. Now the screen says "Getting ready," with a throbber to the right. Next you'll see, "Applying PC settings," followed by another restart.

13. Finally, the screen will read "Setting up a few more things," and you'll see the familiar Windows 8.x setup screens, starting with Getting Online. Connect your Wi-Fi, enter your Microsoft account credentials, and your ready to take part in the future of Windows Operating systems!

9 Tips for Longer Laptop Battery Life

We've all been there. You're in a meeting, or on the road, or in a classroom, and you find, to your horror, that your laptop is nearly dead. Maybe you forgot your power adapter, maybe there isn't an available outlet. For whatever reason, your battery power is dwindling, and you still have stuff to get done. Hope is not lost, however. There are some things you can do to buy more time on that almost-dead battery so you can meet a deadline or respond to an important email before it's too late.
Some of these techniques are for when you need to stretch your battery at that very moment, while others are preventative measures, best implemented before your battery life comes up short. There is some of overlap between the short- and long-term strategies we'll outline below, but even when the actions are the same, the reasons behind it may be different.

Short-Term Battery-Stretching Strategies

If you're in a tough spot right now, there are things you can do to extend the battery life immediately. None of these actions will actually increase the amount of power left in the battery, but instead will reduce the amount of power the laptop is using, letting you squeeze in a few more precious minutes before the battery goes kaput. The name of the game in these instances is power consumption, and you need to reduce yours to as little as possible.

1. Activate Your Laptop's Battery Saver Mode or Eco Mode

Designed with these sorts of circumstances in mind, most Battery-Saver or Eco modes will engage a number of automatic changes to lengthen usable battery life—many of the same changes we'll be making here. This saved profile will adjust your laptop's settings and shift components into low-power states to help you ration your remaining juice a bit longer.

Once you've turned on the automatic battery-saver tool, there are still plenty of steps to take to eke out even better efficiency. This is done by turning off unnecessary devices, adjusting settings to reduce power consumption, shutting down unwanted apps and processes, and adjusting your activities to use less power.

2. Disable Unused Devices and Ports

The easiest way to reduce power consumption is to simply turn stuff off. Every component in your laptop needs power to function, but that doesn't mean you need to power all of those components all the time. Start by disconnecting any unneeded peripherals (like a USB mouse or external drive) and turning off the biggest power hogs, like Wi-Fi and Bluetooth radios, graphics processors, and unused optical drives.

WARNING: Before disabling any component or device, stop and make sure that this device is not in use, and that it is not essential to continuing operation of the laptop. For example, you DO NOT want to disable the hard drive that houses the operating system, or the processor the runs the entire laptop. Only disable those devices you are comfortable turning off.

To disable unused devices on a Windows system, open up your system's Control Panel and find the Device Manager. In the Device Manager, individual components are grouped by category. For example, Network Adapters will often include both the LAN adapter, which provides Ethernet connectivity, and Wi-Fi, for wireless networking.

The four standard candidates for saving power are the graphics card (found under Display Adapters), the optical drive (found under DVD/CD-ROM Drives), and the Ethernet and Wi-Fi adapters (under Network Adapters). Find the device you want to shut down within the relevant category. Right click on the device name, and select "Disable" from the drop down menu.

While you're in the Device Manager, you can also turn off any unused ports. Just like an extension cord left plugged into an outlet, these unused plugs still have power going through them, and losing some in the process. The actual impact on battery life will be minimal, but if you need to eke out another minute or two of life, this will help. Take a quick glance at your ports, and turn off anything that's not being used, like USB ports with nothing connected to them.

While you can disable USB ports on a Mac using the terminal program, it's something that IT administrators would use to lock down Macs for security purposes. We don't recommend doing it as an end user because it may make your system act up. You can, however, disable Bluetooth and Wi-Fi from the Menu bar at the top of the screen.

3. Adjust Your Settings

While you'll still have to use the display and the keyboard, you can adjust the settings for each to reduce power consumption. One often overlooked power drain is keyboard backlighting. Unless you're in the dark, and need the backlight just to make out each key, turn the backlight off entirely. You can typically assign a hotkey for this function.

The next power drain is your screen. While you need to keep the up and running to use the laptop, you don't necessarily need it running at 100-percent brightness or full resolution. Many laptops will have hotkeys for increasing and decreasing the screen brightness, but if not, it can be adjusted in the control panel. Reducing the display to 50 percent when you're running on battery power can add a significant amount of time.

Additionally, if you're simply typing up a document, you don't need all of the detail offered by a 1080p or higher display. Dialing down the screen resolution to a basic 1,366-by-768 resolution or lower reduces the amount of power used in graphics processing without negatively impacting your ability to work, letting your laptop a bit longer than at full resolution.

Finally, turn off or turn down the sound. If you need to hear, drop the sound down as low as you can, and consider switching from the laptop's larger speakers to a set of tiny earbuds to get the audio piped right to your ears. Whenever possible, just mute the laptop altogether. That way, the speakers won't be getting any power, and you'll buy yourself some more precious time.

4. Turn Off Apps and Processes

It's not just the hardware that's stealing your battery juice. Multiple apps and processes running on your system will also chew through battery life more quickly. As with the hardware, start by turning off anything that isn't being used.

In Windows, start by taking a look in your System Tray, the collection of icons in the lower right corner of the desktop, next to the clock. On the left end of the System Tray, select the icon to display hidden icons. Take note of which apps are running in the background.

Open up the Task Manager by pressing Ctrl+Shift+Esc, or use Ctrl+Alt+Del and select Task Manager from the menu. Once in the Task Manager, look at the open apps—you may find that a program or two have been left running simply because you forgot to close a window instead of minimizing it.

Next, go to the Processes tab. This shows you what processes are currently running on your machine. While some of these are needed, some, like those associated with music and video players or cloud storage services (like Dropbox or Google Drive) can be disabled without causing any problems.

For MacBooks, the process is a little different. Take a look at System Preferences > Users&Groups for a menu called Login Items. Delete any power-hungry programs that you don't need anymore, or disable things like Google Chrome's automatic launch at startup. You can also see programs that are using a lot of power at any given moment by holding down the Option key, then clicking on the battery indicator in the Menu bar. Alternately, you can open the Activity Monitor utility to see a list of all the programs and processes you currently have open , and which of these are using the most power. You can stop these processes by selecting the program and then clicking the Stop icon. Power Nap is an Apple OS X feature that checks your email and twitter feeds for activity while the system is asleep. If you are trying to maximize battery life, it would be wise to turn that feature off.

5. Simplify

You can also stretch your battery life by simplifying your own activities. Multitasking is nice when you have full power, but running several programs at once puts a greater load on the processor and draws more power. Adjust your computer use by sticking to one application at a time and avoiding resource-intensive programs.

Start by single-tasking—if you need to type up a document, close any additional programs. You'll get longer battery life by not running Spotify in the background. If you need to keep some tunes going, switch from streaming media to locally stored songs—you'll still be using some extra power to play them, but streaming media over Wi-Fi also uses the laptop's wireless radio.

You might also benefit from switching to simpler tools for the same tasks, like opting for a simple text file instead of a Word document. With fewer features and none of Word's automatic actions (like Spell Check and Autosave), you can do all the writing you need without using quite so much power. Some activities you'll want to avoid entirely, like photo and video editing tools, which place a significant load on the processor and graphics card, and are real power hogs.

By eliminating unnecessary power uses, you should be able to extend the life of your battery in those moments that you find yourself high and dry.
