Over the past year or so, security researchers have found out that a lot of users (using personal assistants in-and-out) have their personal information on stake. For instance, when a user uses an assistant to perform certain actions using commands, their audio (along with a transcript) is sent across to the company’s servers to offer an apt result. Ideally, this information must be deleted soon after the action is carried out and the result has been provided....

A year later, with the iOS 16 update, it’s now taken this one step further and extended the functionality to every part of the system where you can select text. This means you can now easily convert currencies and units appearing as inline text inside any app—built-in or third-party—automatically without having to copy-paste them anywhere, like before. Follow along as we demonstrate how to use the built-in converter in iOS 16 to convert units and currencies on your iPhone quickly....

Tab Preview feature in Firefox 3.6 lets you move to any opened tab just by using Ctrl + Tab keys. This is very similar to the tab preview feature of Windows Vista and 7. If you have opened a lot of tabs and find it difficult to switch using Alt + Tab feature, then you can use Ctrl + Shift + Tab which allows you switch to a tab using the tab search option....

Before we proceed with learning how to force iPhone to restart, let’s learn how the regular restart or shutdown works on iPhone since even that isn’t straightforward if you are new to iPhones. How to Restart an iPhone the Regular Way If you have an iPhone X, iPhone 11, iPhone 12, iPhone 13, or iPhone 14, you would know that there is no Home button anymore, resulting in users needing to use different button combinations to access various functions compared to the earlier models....

One way to avoid this is to develop a system for categorically organizing all your files. Simply put, you need an organized directory structure in which you can systematically move your files back and forth. The traditional method of moving files around on your Mac serves its purpose, but it can be quite tedious if you have to perform the process repeatedly. Therefore, here we introduce the different ways you can use to move files on Mac....

This free app does exactly what you’d expect, it hides and blurs out the entire display except for the part which you are reading or typing on. It overlays any other application with a layer of tint, a “privacy shade” as the developers like to call it. The rest, although, remains completely visible and you can precisely customize the sensitive area through the settings. For getting started with “Privacy Screen Guard & Filter”, head over to the play store and download the app....

Apps like Facebook, 9gag, Dropbox and others like them are pretty big data hogs, and sometimes they connect to the Internet in the background and consume those valuable MB of data. While turning them completely off isn’t a good option, we must find the next best thing and turn off cellular data only for certain apps, so they work only over WiFi or at certain times. Today we’ll be investigating this aspect and show you some solutions for this program....

The next month’s iPhone event will mark the first time in quite a while since Windows users were able to officially live-stream an Apple presentation. Thus, this year, the requirements needed to live-stream the event have changed a great deal for Windows users, as follows: iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with Safari on iOS 7.0 or later Mac with Safari 6.0.5 or later on OS X v10.8.5 or later PC with Edge on Windows 10 Streaming via Apple TV requires a second- or third-generation Apple TV with software 6....

Furthermore, HP has also taken care to keep the battery capacity well within the 100 watt-hours allowed by the airlines/FAA for carry-on luggage since the backpack battery is rated at 84 watt-hours. Again, it’s quite possible that the bag might be flagged since different countries have different guidelines. The bag doesn’t come cheap at $200 but considering the utilitarian front, it might be worth the money. Another good aspect of the bag is the compartments; HP has designed a separate compartment for each device alongside a charging port....

HP, the erstwhile market leader in PCs, has jumped back into the mobile race with an oddly pitched device. Two years after it shut down webOS, HP is testing waters again in the mobile segment with a couple of Android based phablets, the HP Slate 6 VoiceTab and HP Slate 7 VoiceTab. As the name suggests, HP isn’t ready to call them phablets, but rather, they want to pitch them as tablets capable of making calls....

Once the Screen Capture app is fired up, it displays a prompt with options like Scroll, Partial, Edit, Share and Save. With the Scroll option, users can preview the screenshot before saving it. However, the best part is that the users can choose more content by simply scrolling down. The Scroll option means a great deal for capturing those extra large screenshots. The Partial option is nothing but a rebadged cropping tool....

Appearance and Display The elephant in the room of course is that foldable display. There are 3 parts to this display. The front of the phone when folded has a 6.6-inch display with a resolution of 2480 x 1148 pixels and aspect ratio of 19.5:9. The display on the rear when folded measures 6.38-inches with a resolution of 2480 x 892 pixels and an unusual aspect ratio of 25:9 due to the array of cameras residing on a strip on the side....

The design of the Huawei P10 is reminiscent of its predecessor. It comes in a 6.8mm thin sandblasted finish metal unibody design that bears a narrow strip of horizontal glass located on the top of the rear panel. To the front lies a 5.1 inch Full HD (1,920 x 1,080) IPS-NEO LCD display and a rectangular fingerprint sensor. This display is covered by a layer of Corning Gorilla Glass for protection....

Intel is one of the leading manufacturers of microprocessors in the world, powering a wide range of devices spanning from top of the line workstations to personal computers and more recently, mobile devices. Starting from last year, Intel has tried to gain ground in the mobile market by developing processors for smartphones and tablets. Although at the time, Intel was falling behind, in the past year they have gained a lot of ground and now the number of devices powered by Intel’s line of mobile processors has grown to over 100 products....

Intex is breaking the ice in India with the country’s first Lollipop smartphone by Indian brand. The star is Aqua Star L which will sell for Rs. 6990 exclusively on Snapdeal. Slightly more than $100 for a new handset delivering Android Lollipop isn’t that bad, as a matter of fact. However, it’s worth pointing out that Xolo recently started rolling out Android 5.0 Lollipop updates for two of its smartphones in India, so Inte’x new handset has exclusivity when it comes to out-of-box availability....

Even though Apple announced iOS 14 at the WWDC 2020 earlier this year, the public rollout was an accelerated one. As a result, it was subject to exasperation for a lot of app developers during the initial days of the release — mostly because the developers could not make the necessary changes in their app, and therefore, could not provide functionalities, like the revamped widgets, to the users updating to iOS 14, right away....

All of which would seem to point to a perfect start. Doubtless. However, the real challenge for the brand starts now. For while Poco has got the attention it is looking for, and also a very promising product at a killer price(read our review), it now needs to build on it. And history would indicate that that is a very different and difficult task. For notwithstanding all the (some choreographed, we suspect) screaming and cheering that accompanied the launch of the Poco F1, the fact is that this is not the first time a flagship level device has been released at what seems to be a surprisingly affordable price....

Semi-premium build, good display The Lava Z10 delivers a semi-premium appearance. While it is built using the same metal tech as on Lava Z25, the rear panel is plastic. However, Lava has given the phone the same treatment when it comes to ergonomics and curves. The Z10 comes with a 5-inch HD IPS display with OleoPhobic coating and only 1.9 mm bezel. The display has 2.5D curved glass, which makes the swiping experience awesome....

Le Max boasts of a gigantic 6.33-inch QHD display offering a pixel density of 464ppi. The phone draws its power from the octa-core Snapdragon 810 processor clocked at 2.0GHz and paired with a 4GB of RAM. On the storage front the Le Max will offer a 64GB of Internal memory but the company has ditched the microSD card slot. Thankfully Le Max will also be available in a 128GB variant in case the 64GB is not enough....
