Android’s Journey

The most recent version of Google’s wildly popular mobile operating system, Android 13, is now available for Google Pixel devices and will undoubtedly arrive on the top Android flagships in a few months.

In light of the recent launch, let’s examine Android and its history to date.

What is an Android?

The Android mobile operating system has been in existence for almost 15 years. It serves as the default operating system for most smartphones and tablets around the world. This mobile OS is owned by internet search giant Google.

The system is open source, though, so anyone can use it freely, even for commercial purposes. In addition, other operating systems, such as Chrome OS and Windows 11, natively support Android applications.

There are many other devices out there that run Android, despite the misconception that it is only available for smartphones. Tablets, televisions, and smartwatches are a few other devices that support Android OS.

History of Android

Android’s Journey

Beginning in 2003, Andy Rubin and his team used the foundational code from Linux, another open-source operating system, to create Android. The goal was to create a common operating system that could be utilised by all camera manufacturers.

But as the OS evolved, Rubin understood that smartphones would dominate the market. Thus, he chose to redesign it as an operating system for smartphones.

In 2005, Google swept in and purchased Android for about $50 million. The Android team at Google worked to create an operating system that operated well on cell phones with physical buttons and full QWERTY keyboards.

Later in 2007, they updated Android once more to support touchscreens. The result was the HTC Dream, also known as the T-Mobile G1, which was the first Android device to be produced for sale. It featured a touch screen and a QWERTY keyboard.

Since then, thousands of phones have been released, and the operating system is now the most widely used one worldwide.

Features of Android OS

Some of the benefits of using an Android operating systems are:

Features of Android

Google Play, the official app store offered by Google, is one of the many app stores available for Android, and it comes pre-installed on almost all smartphones and tablets to allow users to browse and download new software.

Google has been putting a lot of effort into making the user interface (UI) for Android as flexible and customizable as possible. Google has subsequently stuffed Android with a tonne of editable widgets as a result. These can be used anywhere in the user interface and provide updates or quick access to several services, including email, calendar, messages, etc.

The core software of the Android operating system can be modified by programmers and hardware producers. As a result, the OS can be altered by businesses to operate in very particular sectors.

On Android, many third-party apps provide advanced features; one of the best features is that users can use, modify, and install custom versions in place of the ones that come pre-installed. You can make many system-level adjustments that you would not be able to make as quickly on any other OS, such as Windows or iOS.

Android Version 13 vs Android 12

Android’s Journey

Google has now made Android 13 available to the general public after months and months of testing. Google Pixel 4 and later models can now download the update, but other OEM devices won’t receive it until “later this year.”

Although the new Android 13 doesn’t have a significant upgrade as the Android 12 update from the previous year, it is built on Android 12’s foundation and adds several new and minor changes. Listed below are a few essential features of Android 13:

  • Unlike previous versions, Android 13 asks for your permission before sending a notification. You will see a pop-up when you first launch an app asking if you want to receive notifications from that particular app. Thereafter, you can decide whether to allow (or disallow) the app to send notifications.
  • In Android 13, Google has added a Lock Screen setting that enables you to disable the lock screen and manage some smart home devices without unlocking your phone.
  • Until Android 12, changing the display and font size could be done separately in different sections of the Display settings page. However, Google combined the two options in Android 13 so that you can adjust the text and display sizes simultaneously from the display settings.
  • Android 13 has a slightly thicker navigation bar than Android 12, which is a subtle but noticeable change. Despite having some similarities to iOS, the new navigation bar is more functional and more attractive than its predecessor.
  • In comparison to Android 12, Android 13 is much more stable. Google has put a lot of effort into improving Android’s general usability, app launching speed, animations, and overall performance.

Apart from Google Pixels, some of the prominent brands that integrate Android are Samsung, Xiaomi, Lenovo, One Plus, Motorola, Oppo, Sony, Vivo, and many others.

Since Huawei no longer has access to Google, they created HarmonyOS, a multi-platform operating system unveiled at the Huawei Developers Conference in August 2019.

Use the Silent Mode feature

Ever had difficulties in the connection between your iphone and watch? Then now it is all Sorted. The beauty of wearing an Apple Watch is how it helps you detach from your iPhone.

Top hidden features of apple smartwatch

With it, you don’t need to pick up your iPhone whenever you get a message or a call. Instead, you can leave your phone silent for long periods.

However, the Apple Watch default makes a sound every time you get a notification. This can get annoying quickly, especially when the Watch’s Taptic Engine is so good. But you can keep it quiet with a few taps.

Wash your hands properly

Covid times taught us the cleanness of our hands matters a lot, and if you want to wash your hands finely, then this feature provides an alarm that will tell you to wash your hands.

A timer will start with a nice bubbly decal when you start running the tap and rinsing your hands. It will count from 20 seconds to ensure you’re washing away nasties.

Check your VO2 Max

Sometimes feeling down only doesn’t mean normal fever; it can be a symptom of VO2, too, and through this feature, you can check your VO2 level. The feature is in the new addition in watchOS 7 VO2 Max.

It is now tracked in the Fitness app (renamed from Activity). As part of your stats, you’ll find your Cardio Fitness score, a VO2 Max estimate based on your heart rate and pace on GPS-tracked outdoor runs.

VO2 Max is a distilled single score on your fitness, and there’s no more excellent gauge of your current level. The Apple Watch will also produce a warning if your VO2 Max starts dropping, as a little kick to get your sneakers on and get out for a run.

Get the Cardio Fitness alerts

The want of getting all fitness-related things is fulfilled now as everyone will get cardio fitness notifications.

Top hidden features of apple smartwatch

VO2 Max is the accurate measure of fitness and refers to the body’s ability to transfer oxygen to the blood – but it has been a metric for hardcore athletes.

Cardio Fitness score on Apple Watch brings the idea of VO2 Max to the masses and can estimate it based on your daily lifestyle – and warn you if it deems your fitness to be dangerously low.

It’s an opt-in feature, and Apple needs some information to start estimating Cardio Fitness. Head to the Apple Health app on your iPhone and go to Summary > Cardio Fitness > Set up.

The Share watch faces feature

 Many users were demanding such a feature that can allow sharing the face view on an Apple watch.

Just press and hold on to a watch face (as if to change it), and you’ll see a share button. You can add a contact and even dictate a message.

Sharing a watch face isn’t just about the custom picture you’ve used. It can also mean the exact selection of complications and adjustments that makes Apple Watch faces so personal and unique.

Manage the playlist of the music

As of now, you don’t need to change songs through the traditional method of using your phone; the hidden feature will make this process easier.

The feature allows users to choose songs, adjust the volume, and skip tracks with only a flick of their wrists.

Thanks to the fact that many users love the control, more houses are getting HomePods. We have previously gone through the steps necessary to add music to the Apple Watch, but what about controlling the music from other devices? If you have upgraded your watchOS to a version later than 4.3, you’ll be able to use your watch to directly control the music playing on your Apple HomePod or iPhone.

As the first release of watchOS 4, iPhone users could do this for a short period. However, this functionality was quickly disabled after music streaming was reinstated on the wristwatch via watchOS 4.1.

Change AirPods volume by Siri

Did you know that you can adjust the volume of your AirPods just by using Siri?

Apple Watch

You have to speak to Siri to adjust the volume on the AirPods without having to remove your iPhone from your pocket or bag. It’s complicated, but if you have an Apple Watch, you’re in luck.

You may quickly check out what song is “Now Playing” on your Apple Watch if it is equipped with watchOS 4 or a later version of the operating system. This feature works regardless of whether the music comes from your iPhone or your Watch.

To adjust the volume, all you have to do is turn the Digital Crown clockwise or counterclockwise. So it is pretty handy in every way.

Use the App Dock Feature

Our next hidden feature is the app dock feature, that will benefit users to a great extent.

It would be best if you used this dock, stacking it with your most used apps because your Watch prioritises information and background refreshes.

Also Read: Apple Watch SE

Apple ditched glances in watchOS 3, and now you view all open apps by touching that side button. In addition, you can customise the dock in your companion Watch app. For example, it can be set to pull in the most recent apps you used, which works a little bit like multitasking on the iPhone.

Or you could turn it into a proper dock with your favourite apps. If you choose the latter, you can easily customise which apps appear.

Raise to Speak to Siri

The feature that we are now mentioning will blow your minds and needs to be discussed.

If you’re using an Apple Watch Series 3 running watchOS 5 or above, there’s no need to press the Digital Crown to talk to Siri. Instead, raise your wrist to bring the Apple Watch close to your face and start speaking. Siri will instantly begin transcribing and processing your command.

Funnily enough, this is the most reliable way to interact with Siri on the Apple Watch. Moreover, it works much better than holding the Digital Crown.

The Thoughtfully Manage Notifications feature

If you have some difficulties regarding the management of notifications, then we have a solution for you, which is this hidden feature.

Also Read: How to Make Your Apple Watch Battery Last Longer?

Apple Tool Box

If you wear your Apple Watch all the time, you’ll have to cull the notifications you get. If you don’t, wearing the Apple Watch will quickly become overwhelming.

The Apple Watch allows you to disable notifications from the Notification Center. For example, swipe left on a message, tap the menu button and select Turn off on Apple Watch. You can also choose the Deliver Quietly option to disable the sound and vibration feedback for the app notification.

Final Words

The hidden features mentioned above are collected from natural and official resources. The features are researched after considering the daily life of a user, and we hope you will benefit from the points.

These hidden features help you make the most of your Apple Watch. You’ll be amazed at how much it can do! Integrating all of its components with your daily workout and fitness routine can make a difference.

The Features are not false and will work, so you don’t need to worry. Lastly, we would like to say that please support us if you liked the Features and didn’t know about them before.

Fit Pro Smartwatch- Health & Fitness Guru

Fitness Pro Smartwatch
Fitness Pro Smartwatch

There are many electronic gadgets out there in varying hues and prices that it becomes impossible to keep track whenever a new variant comes out in the market. Furthermore, all brands claim to be superior than others, which confuses users even more, especially if they’re completely new to them.

Beginners have no idea as to which brand they should concentrate on when they have resolved to buy a device for the first time but apart from budget constraints, they need to be well aware of the brands’ reputation and how the particular device has prevailed in its various incarnations in the eyes of its users.

However, with all that being said, there are some that are more important than the others and none more than those that help in keeping our health and fitness in check, which brings us to smartwatches.

Brief Up

Smartwatches have become the proverbial lifeline for many people grappling with health issues who were totally dependent on prescribed medicines, most of which, at the most, could only suppress the symptoms of the ailment rather than eradicating it.

Prevention is better than cure so if you have completely resolved that you will give up unhealthy food and habits, there is no reason why you should fall sick but if you’re already dealing with health problems, Fit Pro Smartwatch is one such company among many that will help you keep everything in check.

The new smartwatch is slowly, but surely, becoming a massive craze in India, which is a welcome oasis as many big tech giants have been selling newer gadgets for outrageous prices and driving customers crazy due to their low level performance.

The solution was provided by a new startup venture that baffled even tech experts because no one would believe that Fit Pro Smartwatch is a brand new company that offers this innovative piece of design with all the topnotch quality and features down pat and that too, at an affordable price.

The company was the brainchild of a small group of individuals that were all experts in the field of health technology where the engineers struck a deal with some of the best smartwatch makers on the planet to develop this ingenius model- Fit Pro Smartwatch.

This new model is well on its way to become the frontrunner in the next generation of smartwatches with unique features that nobody would believe is manufactured by a startup company that has just started to take baby steps into the field.

Price & Features

Fit Pro Smartwatch must come with a starting price of Rs.34,999, or so people might assume, which is very low when compared to the price tag you see on smartwatches of other reputed brands, which start at around Rs.49,999 or more.

However, the price of this smartwatch is a meager Rs.2,999, which is all due to a 70% promo that is set to end soon. One might even wonder if the price is a joke and is really worth buying considering its laughable amount but it does come across as being true.

The reason why it is affordable by one and all is because it is a direct-to-consumer brand and they spent no money on branding, advertising, promotions, distributors, or anything, which would have undoubtedly increased its costs by manifolds.

This means that there are no middlemen or retailers who gobble up the costs, due to which the customers have to pay such large prices but the company sells these smartwatches online.

It is the customer who is paying all the costs, aside from the product, that these big and reputed brands have as a company but Fit Pro Smartwatch doesn’t want to haggle its customers with any of these problems.

Giving a big discount on a new device is a common business tactic that many companies offer so that customers give positive reviews on their devices and it gains more publicity through social media.

Customers who want to buy this smartwatch are in luck as Fit Pro Smartwatch can offer big promotions on their official website itself but the full price will come back once the device goes viral and demand grows, which is why users need to place their orders fast.

This is the best time to buy Fit Pro Smartwatch as the discount offer will end very soon because it is selling like hotcakes, which is no surprise it has much better built quality and features than smartwatches that cost ten times more.

Fit Pro Smartwatch

Apple iOS 16 Battery Life Affected by Keyboard Haptics

Apple has had a busy September 2022 where aside from the launch of iPhone 14 series of smartphones, it also came out with the brand new iOS 16 for the smartphones on September 12, 2022.

Apple iOS 16

Apple iOS 16 is now available for everyone that uses iPhone 8 or newer models but the going hasn’t been smooth for the new generation operating system as many users have complained about batteries draining at a much quicker pace than usual.

The issue was sorted out immediately as restarting the device did the trick but after the problem came out in the open, Apple advised its users to be cautious about the new feature on their iOS 16 operating system, which, they claim, might affect the battery life of their iPhone.

The feature in question is the Haptic Feedback that can be found on the default keyboard of iOS 16 and if it is enabled on the smartphone it starts vibrating a little whenever a keypad is tapped while typing, which confirms to the user that the key has been tapped successfully.

However, Apple has not mentioned anything apart from this, which has left many users confused as to how much battery life is liable to be consumed by this feature and since haptic feedback is not yet deactivated in Low Power Mode, they can either turn it off completely or keep it enabled so that it drains out all the battery.

The service is subscribed by millions of users worldwide where almost every second an individual posts some image or popular quote on his/her Instagram handle along with the regular stories that their followers can see.

But just like any other platform, Instagram too has been vulnerable to outages due to which the site has been down on many occasions for many users. The same happened again very recently when many users complained about their feed not working, people were unable to see check their DMs, among others.

Around 70% outage reports on Instagram were for app crashes, while nearly 27% were for server connection, and the rest were for difficulty of users to login to their Instagram accounts.

This isn’t the first time that users are facing difficulties in operating their Instagram accounts as such problems pop up every now and then but Meta is definitely looking into the matter and hopes to sort it out very soon.

However, iPhone 13 series costed Rs.79,900 when launched in India while Apple slashed down the price of Rs.10,000 during the launch of iPhone 14 series of smartphones, which means it was now available for Rs.69,900.

To offer a flat discount of Rs.20,000 might seem fake or unrealistic to many people but it is likelier that it will include bank cards, prepaid orders, along with other discounts that the company might reveal in due course.
