Another day, another feature nobody asked for. Facebook subsidiary Instagram has now enabled activity status in direct messages: this means that practically all of your friends will now be able to see w hen the last time you were actively using the app was. The feature rolled out as part of the latest updates for  Android  and  iOS  – so at least you know everyone is getting the same deal. In case you were wondering how this looks, Instagram now displays a line indicating the last time a user was active on its platform directly underneath their username. The activity status is currently only visible in direct messages. While some might find this change slightly annoying at first, it is not all that surprizing to see it in the main app. Indeed, Facebook integrated the same feature in its Messenger app ages ago. The good thing about the new addition is that Instagram has given users the option to opt-out from having their activity status visible to everyone. Here’s how...

Android 9.0 Guess, what is next name of this version..??☝☝ May be some reports say that is is Pai Its that time of the year again when we try and guess the name of the new version of Android. It’s become a silly tradition among Android enthusiasts – even though most of them will never see the update on their phones. And Google knows most of us are busy speculating on the lines of parfait, peanut butter, pudding, pistachio, and whatnot, so it’s having a little fun with fans. Google’s engineers are internally referring the next version of Android as “Pi,” at least according to the recently unveiled commits in the Android Open Source Project repository. And while “Pi’ does sound like an appetizing dessert, it may actually be the internal codename, which Google knew will eventually be discovered. So consider this a very Googley easter egg, just like Android ‘Key Lime Pie’. XDA’s Mishall Rahman came across the teaser and promptly set Android fans into frenzied speculation mode...

Apple CEO Tim Cook says developer update coming next month The update will mainly give "visibility" of iPhone battery's health It will also allow them to turn off performance throttling In the midst of facing a shortage of replacement batteries for older iPhone models, Apple CEO Tim Cook has said that in an upcoming iOS 11update will allow users to disable battery performance throttling on their devices. The move is likely to overcome the slowdown issue that was acknowledged by the Cupertino giant last month. To recall, the company also started compensating affected users by reducing the prices of replacement batteries, but that development eventually pushed a major supply problem that is yet to be addressed. In an interview with ABC News, Cook stated that Apple is preparing an iOS 11 update that directly addresses the battery-related slowdown and battery health issues. It will arrive first through a developer release next month, presumably i...
