WhatsApp Making Voice Calling Feature Tests For Selected Users

WhatsApp is an instant messaging app that was initially released in the year 2009. Now WhatsApp has proclaimed the most anticipated feature which is the Voice Calling feature to the app users. The feature can be accessed only through invitation. The feature cannot be accessed by latest version 2.11.508 Android users.

WhatsApp Making Voice Calling Feature Tests For Selected Users

WhatsApp has stated that it is still testing the feature and will roll out to users soon. The new feature is available to consumers only when they get an invitation from the other users that are already availing this feature. Even though if you have downloaded the latest version of the app in your handset, to access this feature user should get invitation from others who are using this app. Users have to wait until other notified you about this app. A reddit user who is using Nexus 5 device has stated that new voice calling feature is running the latest Android Lollipop OS.

The reddit user has posted some screen shots showing the Calls tab with Contacts and Chats. Consumers who will receive the invitation for accessing the feature will be able to see the standard caller interface. Along with caller buttons you will also get options for speaker, messaging and mute. The admix interface is unique and fairly simple in style. It shows only name and WhatsApp image of the particular user you are calling.

Some of the users have stated that, they are not able to send invitation for other people. They have also stated that it works correctly only in India that too for the users who are having Lollipop 5.0.x version on Nexus 5 smartphone. This Voice Calling feature does not work for other Indian users who are having earlier combo.

WhatsApp has launched this feature to receive some user feedback before the main global app feature launch. The UI also seems to be pretty similar in design to the normal calling feature and this was also shown earlier in the screenshots.

More than 700 million users are using this WhatsApp and the company is also launching new features like the WhatsApp web which is accessible via the desktop web browser. WhatsApp is holding a competition with the other messaging apps like Viber and Hike, who are also offering voice calling feature. Voice calling functionality via the messaging apps has gained more popularity throughout the years and let’s wait and see if the WhatsApp can make a hit with its new voice calling feature.

Five budget-friendly open source storage servers

Storage is essential for the enterprise: Data must be stored. Data must be retrieved. Data must be shared. Data must be secured. At the same time, storage must not consume the entirety of your IT budget. Fortunately, you can find effective solutions in the world of open source. Outside of cost effectiveness, one of the biggest benefits of these solutions is the ability to modify them to perfectly fit your needs. You can make minor changes or even roll your own storage solution based on one of these tools. If you want enterprise support and a "solution in a can" that will meet just about any enterprise storage need, you should turn to Red Hat or SUSE. Both Linux-based companies offer some of the most powerful enterprise-ready tools on the market. But if you'd rather get your hands dirty and craft something of your own—something that won't demolish your budget—these five open source tools are a great place to start. 1: ownCloud ownCloud ( Figure ...

Facebook Now Supports PGP To Send You Encrypted Emails

You can now instruct Facebook to encrypt every email it sends to you so nobody — not even the NSA — is likely to be able to read your messages anytime soon. All you have to do is import your public PGP key into your Facebook settings and you’re good to go. The problem here, of course, is that most people have no idea how public/private key email encryption works and how to even get started with it. In the wake of Edward Snowden’s leaks, a number of organizations, including Google, promised to completely hide the complexities of end-to-end email encryption from regular users. Very few of these products have materialized so far, however — not for lack of trying, but because this is actually a very complex problem, both from a technical and user experience perspective. Facebook uses the well-established PGP scheme (the GNU Privacy Guard implementation of OpenPGP, to be precise) to encrypt messages and tools lik...

Visa confirms Coinbase wasn’t at fault for overcharging users

Yesterday, we wrote that Coinbase customers were being charged multiple times for past transactions. While some speculated that the erroneous withdraws were down to a Coinbase engineering issue, Coinbase issued a statement saying it wasn’t liable for the duplicate charges. The blame, instead, rested with Visa for the way it handled a migration of merchant categories for cryptocurrencies, Coinbase said. While you can read my post yesterday for an in-depth description of what happened, the basic gist is that Visa refunded and recharged (under a different merchant category) a month of old transactions. Many users saw the recharge come through before the refund processed, making it look like they were double charged. Honestly, the issue was likely exacerbated by existing payment rails — it’s normal for refunds to take multiple days to show up on credit and debit statements. But here’s where it gets weird — this morning Visa issued a statement to some publications shifting the blam...
