WhatsApp enabling screenshot blocking for View Once messages
The platform lets you leave the group silently
It will let you choose who can see that you’re active
WhatsApp never fails to impress its users, particularly with its privacy features. This time, the social media site owned by Meta has added a few more privacy measures.
A new feature that prevents users from taking screenshots of ‘View Once Messages’ is being rolled out by the platform. The fundamental goal of this is to provide more privacy and security while also retaining users on the site.
‘View once messages,’ which self-destruct once the recipient views them, have been introduced by WhatsApp. Users are able to send photographs, videos, and other messages, simply once. The message automatically vanishes after the recipient has read it. Because they could still capture screenshots of messages that were disappearing, some users nevertheless believe the feature to be useless.
In addition to blocking screenshots, WhatsApp is now testing the option to control who can see your online status. You can now select who can see your activity, enabling you to log into the app anonymously without anyone else knowing. Users can pick between contacts, everyone, or nobody using this recently discovered feature. Additionally, you have the option of selecting a blacklist of contacts from which to hide your status.
To add to that, Meta founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced new privacy features that allow users to exit a group conversation secretly and choose who can see their online presence.
Users will be able to leave a group in private without having to inform everyone thanks to the silent leaving of group function. This feature has begun to roll out to all users and will progressively become available to all users this month. Only the admins will be notified when a member leaves the group. This will make it much simpler to end conversations without running the risk of receiving too many inquiries from other people.
Instagram has become a very fascinating social media application nowadays as it allows you to earn money, use filters, chats, and more. The influencers also get opportunities to endorse brands. In fact, people choose different and attractive names to increase or attract new users to their platform.
Apart from boys and girls, transgender also looks for attractive names and if you are one of those, then you come to the right place as we are curating the list of more than 100 names that will help you to choose the right one.

Oppo is all set to launch its next iteration of ColorOS named ‘ColorOS 13’ on August 18, 2022. This will be a global launch. The Chinese smartphone manufacturer has not yet announced a schedule for the rollout of the upcoming version of ColorOS or specified which smartphones would be compatible with the update. Here’s what to expect.
Oppo ColorOS 13 Launch Event
Oppo will host the ColorOS 13 worldwide launch event on August 13 at 4:30 PM IST, according to the ColorOS official Twitter account. The launch event will also be live-streamed on Twitter and the ColorOS YouTube channel, according to Oppo.
Oppo will be one of the first OEMs to release its newest OS based on Android 13. To give ColorOS 13 users the finest possible operating system experience, the company has been collaborating closely with Android. It incorporates the fundamental security and privacy elements of Android 13 and offers customizations akin to Google’s Material You.
The company just sent out invitations to test the first public beta of ColorOS 13. Applications were open till August 4 for Oppo Find X5, Find X5 Pro, and Find N; testers from outside of China were also welcomed.

While ColorOS 13’s full feature set is unknown, it is anticipated to include improvements to the large screen experience, seamless device connectivity, and other things. A new design is also anticipated for “a concise, comfortable, and smooth Android experience.”
Given that OnePlus’ skin is now more similar to Oppo’s skin, we can also anticipate it to have themes based on nature, an improved Always-on-Display (AOD) capability, and much more, similar to OxygenOS 13.

After introducing the PLI scheme for mobile phones, the Government is likely to restrict Chinese smartphone makers from selling devices under Rs. 12,000. The move is expected to help Indian smartphone manufacturers, including Micromax, Lava, and others.
It is worth noting that Chinese smartphones are dominating the Indian handset market, especially in Rs. 15,000 segment. However, Samsung has also managed to garner some share in the smartphone market in the country.
According to the Bloomberg report, the Government is planning to promote Indian handset makers; however, this move is likely to affect the sales of leading Chinese smartphone makers Xiaomi, Realme, Oppo, Vivo, Infinix, Tecno, itel, Poco, and Infinix.
Chinese Smartphone Sales In India: Details
Xiaomi, Oppo, vivo smartphones
For the unaware, under Rs. 12,000 smartphone segment is the highest selling that accounts for almost 80 percent of the exact sales of these companies as per Counterpoint report.
“Xiaomi smartphone shipments may fall by 11-14 percent a year, or 20-25 million units, with sales decreasing by 4-5 percent, we calculate if India enacts a ban on China-made mobile phones retailing under $150. It accounts for 25 percent of the segment in India, which is Xiaomi’s most important overseas market, with 66 percent of its smartphones priced under $150,” IDC’s analysts were quoted by Bloomberg.
Meanwhile, Firstpost reported that one of the Chinese smartphone company is already planning to increase the cost of the devices due to high input costs.
It is important to note that the Indian Government is investing in all Chinese brands. Recently, Vivo, Oppo, Xiaomi, Huawei, and more Chinese smartphone companies are under tax invasion cases. The Government banned more than 200 Chinese applications in 2020.
The Print also reported that the Ministry of Corporate Affairs recorded more than 700 cases against all those companies that have Chinese links. This clearly shows that the Chinese companies are under strict surveillance.
