Whatsapp working on Automatic Chat History Syncing

 Whatsapp has come a long way from rendering SMSs obsolete to becoming one of the most prominent platforms for messaging, video conferencing and a lot more. There was a time when Whatsapp had extremely slow update periods that tended to get on the nerves.

The time is now coming to a close because new features are going to be launched very soon because Meta wants to leave no stone unturned in keeping their consumers happy, which is why they keep testing out something new every day.

A major limitation that users constantly complain regarding Whatsapp is that they’re unable to use it on multiple smartphones simultaneously and the messaging platform has been working on the problem through multi-device 2.0 with company device support although no solution has been created as yet.

Through this new feature you can add a new smartphone as a companion device as the multi-device support in Whatsapp is highly advanced through which you can sync your chat history with other mobile devices. This is made possible through v2.22.15.13, the Whatsapp beta for Android.

Sometimes the process may take its own sweet time to complete depending on the number of conversations you’ve had. Although the development is miniscule it is a good start for the things to come because it proves that companion device support will soon be available on Whatsapp.

Netflix brings cinematic audio to Stranger Things, other shows & movies

Netflix has been doing great as far as quality content is concerned and Stranger Things is one of the best drama series to have come out on the platform in recent times. The credit goes to the Duffer brothers for this thrilling series that has grabbed many eyeballs.

However, they went a step further by boosting the audio quality to studio quality sound that will enhance the viewing experience of the audience, who, in any case, expect nothing less than perfection in such matters.

Scott Kramer, the man in charge of sound technology on Netflix, was noticing the sound mix issue for quite some time where it became mushier and mushier with each passing day. Mushy is the term used when different sounds are muddled together.

For every filmmaker, sound is paramount because it takes the whole movie forward and trying to fix badly recorded sound is impossible and even if you wrack your brains for hours together trying to get it right, it doesn’t sound half as good as it does in the editing room when played online.

Netflix has sorted out the issue once and for all, which is great news for filmmakers who won’t waste any time in putting out their content on the streaming platform. Once again, the Duffer brothers get the credit for looking into this grave issue and relieving the burden off the filmmakers’ backs.
