WhatsApp will soon let you undo deleted messages

Aug 18, 2022

WhatsApp already offers the option of deleting messages on its platform to allow users to make corrections or to remove unwanted messages. But there are still times that these deletions might also be done by mistake. And now, it appears that the company is planning on making this reversible as well.

According to a WaBetaInfo report, certain new features was spotted on the latest beta build of the popular chat platform. Just recently, we had reported on the company allowing users to delete messages for everyone in a chat for up to two days. It also offers an option to remove the message under the ‘Delete for me’ option as well. However, the new beta arrives with an undo for these deleted messages.

Unfortunately, this feature is currently exclusively available for the beta users only. In other words, it has yet to make to the final build for end users. But, since it has already made its way to beta, we can expect this feature to make its way to live version soon as well. Notably, the extended time limit to delete messages is already available for all users. As per the report, the undo option for deleted messages can be seen through a pop up at the bottom with an undo button.

At the moment, the undo option is available to a handful of beta testers on the beta version of the Android app that has the version number 2.22.18.13. Keep in mind that the features on the beta build are not always confirmed to make their way to the final build. But stick around, as we will be covering any updates regarding this matter.

Aug 18, 2022

After teasing for days, Oppo finally unveiled ColorOS 13 today. The new iteration of the firm’s mobile operating system will be soon made available for a plethora of devices in the coming months. The beta program is already live in multiple regions for the first batch of phones. We now know when the rollout will begin in India as well.

Oppo will kickstart the Android 13-based ColorOS 13 Beta program in India in September. The Oppo Reno 8 Pro will be the first device in the country to receive the latest software, followed by Oppo Reno 8 in October.

Users of these handsets will be able to enroll themselves for the beta initiative when the registrations open. As always, we expect the company to allocate a limited number of seats, however, there could be multiple rounds of recruitment.

Going by Oppo’s update rollout performance for the past two years, we think that the ColorOS 13 stable update for the aforementioned phones should be live a month from the start of the beta program.

If you are our regular reader, you may be aware that we have been regularly covering ColorOS update rollout stories for a couple of years. This time won’t be different either. Hence, stay tuned to learn when the Reno 8 series and other smartphones get access to ColorOS 13 update in India as well as other markets.

Until then, do check out the top new features in ColorOS 13. Also, take a look at the list of eligible devices and their update schedule.

ColorOS 13 Hands-on: Top 5 New Features

By

-

Aug 18, 2022

Oppo took wraps off ColorOS 13 today. Unsurprisingly, the latest iteration of the company’s mobile software is based on Android 13. For the unaware, Oppo changed the ColorOS version naming in line with the Android version with the debut of ColorOS 11 in 2020.

Last year’s ColorOS 12 was all about globalization. I described it as a step in the right direction in my review. Whereas, this year’s ColorOS 13 focuses on refining the already good software.

I have been using ColorOS 13 for the past few days. After going through some of its features on a regular basis, I have compiled a list of features that I personally considered to be the best in this article. Let’s take a look at them.

Disclosure:

This article was possible due to an OPPO Find X5 Pro running ColorOS 13 Beta loaned to me by Oppo India. The company had no early look or editorial input. All the opinions stated here are mine alone based on my firsthand experience with the software.

Top 5 ColorOS 13 Features

Prev Next

1. Design

ColorOS 13 features a design language called ‘Aquamorphic’. Oppo claims that the design is inspired by water. The jargon sounds good for marketing. But what users need to know is that the new design is mostly similar to that of ColorOS 12 with some tweaks here and there to offer an overall better experience.

By default, the color palette is blue and it changes its shade throughout the day, just like water during sunrise and sunset. You can change the system color based on wallpaper but the implementation is just as poor as it is in ColorOS 12. There’s still no ‘Material You’ but the company says that it is working on introducing it.

The interface follows a card-style layout. Settings app and first-party apps feature different-sized cards showing information based on the type of content.

Oppo ColorOS 13 Aquamorphic Design Empty State Illustration

Finally, there are stunning empty state illustrations across the software, which gives a unique look.

2. Home Screen & Control Center

ColorOS 13’s home screen is almost similar to that of ColorOS 12, except that users can now enlarge folders. Though it sounds like a simple feature, it is so much useful.

Because you don’t need to open a folder to access the desired app anymore. All you have to do is simply click on the required app’s icon present inside the large folder to quickly access it.

Oppo ColorOS 13 Home Screen With Large Folder And Widgets

As with previous iterations of ColorOS, users can opt for the app drawer if they don’t prefer the iOS-esque home screen filled with all the installed applications.

Most importantly, ColorOS 13 arrives with a redesigned control center. The top portion is populated by two large toggles on the left and a media playback widget on the right. By default, the large toggles are WiFi and Bluetooth but users can change to whatever they want.

Oppo ColorOS 13 Control Center Media Playback Widget

Further, the mid-section includes the remaining toggles, followed by the bottom part featuring the brightness slider. Lastly, the header consists of a clock, settings icon, and edit toggles option.

The notifications area resides below the control center in portrait view. However, in landscape view, like during playing a game or watching a video, the notification pane shifts to the right side, while the control center remains on the left. This makes it easier to access quick toggles and respond to notifications.

3. Always-on Display

ColorOS has one of the best always-on display (AOD) implementations. With ColorOS 13, it gets even better with more AOD styles and integration with third-party apps.

Oppo has introduced a new AOD style series called ‘Home’. It showcases how the earth is affected by global warming. Users can choose from three styles featuring polar bears, penguins, and a coral with clown fish.

Talking about third-party applications, Oppo has partnered with Spotify and Indian food delivery companies Zomato and Swiggy for always-on display. Apps offered by these companies will be displayed on AOD.

Oppo ColorOS 13 Spotify AOD (Always-on Display)

Spotify AOD shows the music that’s currently playing along with controls and icons of the four most-played playlists. On the other hand, the India-exclusive Zomato and Swiggy AOD will show useful information like ‘Order accepted’, ‘Meal picked up’, ‘Distance to destination’, and ‘Delivered’.

4. PC Connect

Oppo introduced PC Connect with ColorOS 12. As of now, there are no new changes in the beta build I used but the company has revealed plans to add more features in the later releases of ColorOS 13.

Oppo ColorOS 13 PC Connect

The firm says that it will be adding functionalities like natively answering calls and sending/receiving messages on the computer. In other words, PC Connect will become more of a Microsoft Phone Link rather than simply mirroring the screen.

Hence, apart from the upcoming new features, users can also make use of the existing features like notifications sync, clipboard sync, and file transfer.

With more refinements like these, PC Connect may become richer in features like Huawei Multi Screen Collaboration and Samsung DeX in the near future.

5. Kid Space

ColorOS has had Kid Space for a while with no new additions. After years, it finally gets a useful new feature in ColorOS 13.

The new feature relies on the phone’s hardware to protect the eyesight of kids. It gives three different types of reminders pertaining to sitting position, viewing distance, and ambient light.

Parents can also go through all the reminders issued by the phone during the Kid Space session. Hence, they can teach their kids to use smartphones properly.

Netflix won’t allow downloads on its new ad enabled plan: Report

Aug 18, 2022

Netflix is already known to be working on launching a new subscription model that will be more affordable but will run advertisements. While we have already reported on some details regarding the sacrifices the new plan makes for the cheaper price tag, a new report has revealed that it will also be missing another crucial feature.

According to a Bloomberg report, the new ad enabled subscription business model on the popular video streaming platform will not allow downloads either. For those unaware, the streaming service typically lets users download shows or movies that they would like to watch later on. However, it appears that the more affordable plan that runs advertisements will not let you download these shows for offline viewing.

The report found that the code in the Netflix iOS application stated that the “Downloads available on all plans except Netflix with advertisements.” As of right now, the exact price tag for this new subscription plan is still unknown, although, it is confirmed to be the new starting plan which falls below the Basic Plan that costs 10 US Dollars. With the ad supported tier, the streaming service will likely perform the same 480p streaming option as the basic plan but will generate additional revenue through the ads.

The company is apparently launching the new ad enabled tier due to a decline in users and its revenue. Netflix claimed that the lose in subscribers for the first time in a decade was reportedly due to a “a huge number of home sharing accounts” as well as upcoming “competition.”

OnePlus 10T fails durability test and breaks apart just like OnePlus 10 Pro

By

Aug 18, 2022

Earlier this year, the OnePlus 10 Pro went through a disastrous durability test where it snapped in two during the bend test. So naturally, one would assume that the company’s second flagship model of this year, the OnePlus 10T, would arrive with improvements in design. Well, you might be disappointed.

The popular tech YouTuber JerryRigEverything shared a new video in which he put the OnePlus 10T model to the durability test. In the video, he put the smartphone through the usual durability tests like scratches, flames, bend, and even a bend test. Unfortunately for the Chinese smartphone maker, its first flagship of this year failed the bend test and had snapped in two.

The YouTuber pointed out that the cause for this is likely structural point of failure beneath the camera module. So, one would naturally assume that the company made changes to this design to improve its structural integrity. However, this scene was almost perfectly mirrored with the OnePlus 10T model as well. The smartphone’s display did survive the level 6 of the Moh’s hardness scale on the front and back, and the flame tests did not leave any permanent mark on the OLED display either.

However, the disappointment surfaced during the bend test. Here, the 10T model snapped in the exact same way as the previous 10 Pro. The frame cracked right under the camera module under pressure. The video showed that Zach was able to completely tear down the smartphone apart from his bare hands. He managed to separate the display from the chasis and even remove the cameras from the device as well. In other words, an impromptu tear down video during a durability test.
