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.

Intel announces the first 14 nanometre processor

At the Computex conference in Taipei, chipmaker Intel has revealed a fanless mobile PC reference design using the first of its next-generation 14nm "Broadwell" processors. The 2 in 1 pictured here is a 12.5" screen that is just 7.2 mm thick with keyboard detached and weighs 670 grams. The Surface Pro 3 – for comparison – is 9.1 mm thick and weighs 800 grams. It includes a media dock that provides additional cooling for a burst of performance. The next-generation chip is purpose-built for 2 in 1s and will hit the market later in 2014 . Called the Intel Core M, it will be the most energy-efficient Intel Core processor in the company's history with power usage cut by up to 45 percent, resulting in 60 percent less heat. The majority of designs based on this new chip are expected to be fanless, with up to 32 hours of battery life, offering both a lightning-fast tablet and razor-thin laptop. Intel is also delivering innovation and performance for the ...

Use Cortana to define words for you in Windows 10

Microsoft’s Cortana has many uses including sending emails or checking the weather. One of the best uses though is a simple look-up feature for words and their definitions. Combined with the Hey Cortana voice recognition using Cortana to tell you quickly what a word means is a great hands-free tip. There are multiple ways to get Cortana to define a word. If you have Hey Cortana enabled you can simply blurt out your request: “Hey Cortana what is the meaning/definition of inchoate ?” “Hey Cortana define ubiquitously “ You can, of course, also just type in your request e.g “ define beatitude ” although this admittedly takes some of the speed (and fun) out of using the personal digital assistant. For many words, Cortana displays the definition within a card, and OxfordDictionaries or EncartaDictionaries powers it. Sometimes, if Cortana misunderstands you or does not have the definition, the assistant opens up a web page after performing a web search for...

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...

Uber, Google and other tech employees form Coalition of Black Excellence

When black employee resource groups from a variety of tech companies come together, black magic happens. More specifically, black excellence happens. The Coalition of Black Excellence Week, spearheaded by Uber Litigation Counsel Angela Johnson in collaboration with black ERGs from over 40 tech companies like Facebook, Google, eBay, Lyft and Microsoft, kicks off this Monday in the San Francisco Yay (Bay) Area. The idea for CBE Week came in part from Johnson’s experiences living in Washington D.C., and being able to attend events put on by the Congressional Black Caucus, she told me at Uber’s headquarters this week. “When I moved out to the Bay Area, I really wished there were similar types of experiences for tech,” Johnson said. “And I thought if we could bring together different black ERGs, or diversity and inclusion committees, or people who were interested in some of the issues the black community is passionate about, a lot of positive change and impact could come from that....
