best browsers for Android.

November 14, 2017 0
browser

Browsing the web on your smartphone should not be an exercise in futility. A good navigation application can improve the quality of web pages, even the slow ones, by speeding up images, saving your passwords and activating third-party plugins. The hard part is to find a browser that you like. Fortunately for you, we have chosen the most intuitive and robust mobile browsers we could find, but it's ultimately a question of taste: you have to find the browser that fits your needs. With that in mind, here are the best browsers for Android.

Not sure which desktop browser is right for you? Fortunately for you, we have developed a guide describing the best existing browsers.

Google Chrome


Google Chrome has a host of features, some of which include the ability to search from the address bar, browse the web privately with incognito mode, and automatically populate web forms.
Not surprisingly, Chrome really shines if you have a Google Account. Once logged in, it syncs your bookmarks, tabs and history on all devices, stores your usernames and passwords, and automatically fills your web searches.
But you do not need a Google Account to take advantage of Chrome's tabbed browsing, which lets you switch between web pages in a few clicks. Same for Data Saver, which compresses images, fonts and other Web objects to speed up navigation and reduce the use of your data.

Ideal for: Users already rooted in the ecosystem of Google.

Opera


Opera Mobile, the team behind Opera for Windows and MacOS, regularly gets new features via free updates. One of the most recent is an integrated ad blocker that zaps pop-ups, interstitials, and banner ads from web pages, and a redesigned search bar can scan QR codes.

Opera Mobile is an excellent browser, by the way. It supports tab and private browsing, password management, and auto-completion of forms. And if you sign in with an Opera account, it syncs your session to other connected devices.

Ideal for: Users who want something that is easy to use with a lot of features.

Firefox


Firefox, by the nonprofit Mozilla Foundation, is unique in that it supports extensions - third-party tools that enhance your browsing experience in many ways. There is AdBlock Plus, the voice synthesis engine and LastPass Password Manager - and that just scrapes the surface.

Extensions are not the only unique contribution of Firefox to mobile browsers. Its web page colors in night vision mode help minimize eye strain. There is a robust set of privacy controls that allow you to block ad networks for tracking your browsing habits. In addition, Chrome's favorites synchronization, history, password and synchronization features are unmatched.
Ideal for: Users who do not mind a little DIY.

Puffin


The CloudMosa Puffin Browser does not have exactly the same pedigree as some competitors. But it compensates with features such as mouse cursor emulation, a virtual gamepad and a theme selector.

What really sets Puffin apart from the crowd, however, is the support for Adobe Flash content. It uses remote servers to download and stream games and Flash videos to your device. It's not perfect - the free browser level lets you stream up to 12 hours of Flash content per day - but until Adobe removes Flash in 2020, it's one of the best ways to use sites that will not let Flash.

Puffin also has a privacy mode, data compression, and a handful of add-ons like Twitter, Facebook and Pocket.

Ideal for: Users browsing websites with a lot of Flash content

Dolphin 


Dolphin was launched more than four years ago, but has managed to stay relevant with features such as Dolphin Sonar, which allows you to search for voice items (for example, "eBay search for Nike Shoes" and "go to Google" .com "). Gesture navigation allows you to bookmark web pages with finger gestures, and ezine, Dolphin's answer to Flipboard, aggregates more than 300 web sources in various disciplines into an offline magazine-style digest.
Dolphin is competitive in other ways. Like Firefox and Puffin, it supports add-ons, tabbed browsing, private browsing, auto-complete forms and password synchronization. And it synchronizes via Dolphin Connect; Sign in with your Google or Facebook information, install the corresponding Chrome or Firefox extension on your computer, and your tabs, history, and bookmarks will sync in the background. There is a reason why Dolphin is also one of the best browsers for the iPhone.

Ideal for: users looking for a kitchen sink

Samsung internet browser beta

Samsung does not just make phones. Internet Browser, which is aptly named and has been relegated to its Galaxy smartphones, has recently come on Pixel and Nexus devices, and it is packed with useful features. It supports content blockers such as AdBlock and Disconnect, as well as a high-contrast viewing mode designed for visually impaired users. You can also use the browser to synchronize bookmarks, saved pages, and tabs with devices other than Samsung through the corresponding Chrome extension.

Other highlights of the Internet Browser include the latest and fastest version of Google's rendering engine (v6), as well as an extension for gamepad controllers. It is available for all Android devices running Lollipop 5.0 or later.

Ideal for: users looking for a no-frills browsing experience

Disable Autoplay Facebook Videos on iPhone


To stop Facebook Video AutoPlay in iOS, we will open the Facebook app and press the button at the bottom right for settings. Scrolling down through the screen will display the Settings menu that we need to open. The Settings menu includes account settings, conversation settings, payment settings, and more. In the Settings menu, select Account Settings. This will open all the general settings based on the application for Facebook. In these settings, we will open "Videos and Photos" to change the settings for automatic playback of the video.

The settings under Videos and Photos are more or less similar to the Android version. Tap AutoPlay (AutoPlay> Never Auto Play Videos) to switch from "On Mobile Data + Wi-Fi". This will open another screen where we can select "Never Autoplay Videos".

Now, let's go back and check that the videos do not play automatically while scrolling through the Facebook App news feed. If we want to enable the automatic video playback option, we can go back to the application settings and enable the autoplay option as described above.

Disable Autoplay Facebook Video on the PC browser.


Many of us will have access to Facebook in the browser without these applications. They will also try to disable this function of automatic playback of the video. This process is much simpler than the application settings. Open "Settings" after logging into Facebook. To disable Autoplay, we will open "Videos" in the "Settings" window.

Fake WhatsApp app Attracts More than 1 Million Downloads

November 06, 2017 2


More than a million Android users may have been fooled by downloading a fake WhatsApp product on Google Play, thanks to a space of characters.

A devious application maker claimed to be the actual WhatsApp service with an application called Update WhatsApp Messenger. But he copied the developer title "WhatsApp Inc." - the same title as the current Facebook messenger owned by Facebook uses on Google Play.

The only difference was that the app maker added a Unicode character space after the name of WhatsApp Inc. In a computer code, the difference is more obvious: WhatsApp + Inc% C2% A0. But to average Android users on Google Play, this character space would be easy to miss.

Reddit users spotted the problem on Friday. The dummy application was not a chat application, but served users of ads to download other applications. As Motherboard noted, Avast researcher Nikolaos Chrysaidos pointed out that it has been downloaded at least 1 million times.

The developer of dummy application is unknown, but the culprit later changed the name of the application to "Dual Whatsweb Update", and removed the "WhatsApp Inc." title of developer. It has since been removed from Google Play.

"I can confirm that the app has been removed from Google Play and that the developer account has been suspended for violating the rules of our program," said a spokesman for Google on Friday.

The fake Android apps are not new and they are often used to spread malware on mobile phones. But the fake WhatsApp product incident is worrying because it does not seem like Google has noticed the problem. Google Play rules do not allow apps to impersonate another title or logo. In addition, the company has used new security measures to prevent malware from accessing the platform.

Hackers used similar tips, such as using Cyrillic letters instead of English letters, to create legitimate-looking domain names.

whatsapp update

WHATSAPP finally allows users to delete messages sent from today. Here's how you can delete messages sent to friends and family.

WhatsApp deploys a brand new feature that allows users to delete messages they have already sent.

The WhatsApp update is being rolled out to more than one billion users of the Facebook-owned email application.

WhatsApp users will be able to delete messages they have sent to an individual group or chat.

Messages that have been successfully deleted in a chat will be replaced by "this message has been deleted".


However, there is a problem: WhatsApp users can only delete messages within seven minutes after they are sent.

The WhatsApp team said, "Deleting messages for everyone allows you to delete specific messages that you have sent to an individual group or chat.

"This is especially useful if you have sent a message to the wrong conversation or if the message you sent contains an error.

"Messages deleted successfully for everyone will be replaced by" This message has been deleted "in your recipients' discussions.

"Similarly, if you see" This message has been deleted "in a chat, it means that the sender has deleted his message for everyone."


WhatsApp provided a breakdown for the removal of messages sent in the iOS and Android app in a FAQ message on their website

Here is a step by step guide on how to delete messages sent to everyone in WhatsApp:

• Open WhatsApp and navigate to the chat that contains the message you want to delete.

• Tap and hold the message> choose Delete from the menu. Optionally, select multiple messages to delete multiple messages at once.

• Tap Delete> Delete for everyone.

In the post FAQ, WhatsApp added: "You can only delete messages for everyone up to seven minutes after sending.


"Once seven minutes have elapsed, there is no way to delete messages for everyone."

And here's a step-by-step guide to how to delete WhatsApp messages that you have sent or received on your phone:

• Open WhatsApp and navigate to the chat that contains the message you want to delete.

• Tap and hold the message> choose Delete from the menu. Optionally, select multiple messages to delete multiple messages at once.


• Tap Delete> Delete for me.

The feature has long been prevalent, with Express.co.uk reporting its existence in February.

At the time, we revealed that WhatsApp were experimenting with the new feature in its iPhone beta software.

In order to use WhatsApp's new message delete feature, you must ensure that you and the recipient have the latest version of WhatsApp.

If you or your recipient do not have the latest version, the feature will not work.

WhatsApp also warned that functionality is not a guaranteed way to ensure that your recipient does not see the offending message.

They said that recipients can see your message before it is deleted or the deletion has failed.

And if your attempts to delete a WhatsApp message to everyone has failed, you will not receive any notification
