Truecaller iOS
Automatically blocks calls not from approved contacts or flagged as potential spam

We have so many applications in our smartphone that it is virtually impossible to keep count and for good reason. There is one that is pretty underrated and doesn’t feature as much in discussions as it should.

Truecaller iOS Update

TrueCaller is an identification app where you can ascertain the identity of the caller as the number will automatically flash the name of the person with whom the mobile number is registered.

However, it isn’t always the case because sometimes the name that flashes on the screen along with the caller’s number may not necessarily be the present owner and the app may not have registered his/her name.

Brief Up

However, the latest buzz doing the rounds is that TrueCaller has just released a brand new version of their caller identification app for iOS smartphones where it promises spam, scam, and business call identification much better by at least 10 times.

Although its size is small, it is quicker than the previous ones, even on older smartphones, and the makers are soon to come out with newer features where iPhone owners can download this particular version from the App store.

Features like SMS filtering, community devices, and spam detection, are being worked on but the one thing that the new update will have is the redesigned number look-up widget with the help of which users can search for unknown numbers.

Twitter Investors Asked to Approve Elon Musk’s Approved Sale

Twitter Shareholders
Twitter Shareholders

The news of Elon Musk, Tesla CEO, bidding to acquire Twitter has become common knowledge across the globe and many people are interested in seeing how this story is going to come to a conclusion.

The deal was struck for a whopping $44 million, which is around Rs.3,51,300, in April 2022, but Musk changed his mind and walked out on the deal in July of the same year, as he felt that he was given misleading information regarding the number of fake accounts on the platform.

It is this decision that has given rise to a courtroom battle between Twitter and Musk, which is scheduled for October 2022 where both sides will put forth their argument and expect to come out victorious.

Twitter

Brief Up

Twitter investors have been advised by the Institutional Shareholder Services (ISS) to approve to Tesla’s plan of purchasing the social networking platform by stating that a vote was warranted for Musk’s proposal that will prove beneficial for the investors as well as it is an all-cash transaction.

Twitter

What is interesting is that the investors did not oppose as much to the deal and are expected to vote on the given deal on September 13, 2022. It is Musk’s refusal to go ahead with the deal that prompted to move to US court to direct him to go ahead with it.

As the hearing is due in October, it will be interesting to see this courtroom battle between two billionaires and which of them emerges triumphant in this battle as all eyes are set on both.

Instagram Works on Content Filtering

Instagram
Instagram

Instagram is one of the most popular social media platforms we have today despite it being around a decade since it was launched despite receiving stiff competition from other platforms of its ilk.

Instagram

Like any other platform, the makers always upgrade things when the need calls for it and now they have introduced changes in Instagram so that users are enabled to inform it about the posts recommended to them.

In Brief

The makers want to improve on the algorithm that is serving users with customized content based solely on their activity on the platform so that it will make it easy for all users to learn more about the service so as to recognize posts they’ve no interest in seeing.

Instagram

Instagram wants to make sure that users will be able to select multiple posts in the Explore tab, and inform the makers that they are totally uninterested in seeing any of the posts.

Now the posts that you don’t want to see at all can be put on ‘Snooze’ for a month at a time where you need to go to the top right corner and tap ‘X’ and select ‘Snooze’ and once done, you won’t see anything about the post for a full 30/31 days.

Apart from that, users will now be able to filter out posts from unknown people that contain specific emojis and hashtags, which’ll prevent them from showing up in their feed and therefore, not learn anything about it.
