Messenger Is Finally Returning To The Facebook Application

Does it trouble you as much as it does me that Messenger is a different application from Facebook? On the off chance that the appropriate response is truly, and I believe almost certainly that it will, we could all be in karma. It appears that Messenger will come back to the Facebook application within the near future.

Application specialist Jane Manchung Wong has recognized that Facebook is trying the coordination of Messenger visits. Talking in silver, you will realize certainly that a visit to the platform conversation inside the Facebooke app would lead to aredirection to Messenger or to plystore as in the past without downloading Messenger. One application for everything, much the same as in the past times.

Facebook is taking the Chats back to the application for getting ready coordinated messaging. Be that as it may, it appears that the "new" visits won't have every one of the capacities that Messenger as of now performs. That is, you will almost certainly visit in an ordinary manner about sending and accepting messages, however calls, video calls or sending photographs to the individual on the opposite side will even now need the particular Messenger application.

It appears this is an initial step of Facebook for the incorporation of all messaging administrations under Zuckerberg: WhatsApp, Instagram and Messenger. What's your opinion of the thought? Is it true that you are anticipating uninstalling Messenger as much as I am?

How To Free Up Storage Space On Your iPhone Without Deleting Anything

The problem of low storage space is really common among iPhone users as you may have an iPhone of 16GB but in order to download new files, you constantly have to delete old videos, unused apps and other files that eats up your phone space as a result of the device telling you insufficient space. I've written this article on how you can free up lots of storage space on your iPhone without having to delete any of your important files.

This method though a bit tricky, has helped a lot of people. 

Easy Steps To Free Up Space On iPhone Without Deleting Anything

Step 1:
Head straight to iTunes Store and attempt to rent a movie with large file size e.g 1956's "War and Peace" which is about 8.86GB in HD or let's say "The Lord of the Rings" epics - that will be too big to download. 

Don't be afraid, you won't be charged because the file is too big for the little storage space you have left on your phone. Now, you'll get a notification saying; there is not enough available storage to download "name of movie attempted to download". 

Step 2:
Now, select "OK" and then navigate to your settings. Select General, then go to Storage & iCloud Usage, and you'll discover that you have freed up some space.

I know many questions must have started flowing through your minds by now, like, how did this magic happened?. Just read on to know how it happened.

This is what actually happens:
The attempt your phone made to download that large file has apparently erased some of the unnecessary or "cached" data that was being used by your phone apps. Thus, creating storage space for you which you can use to do whatever you like.

To recover more storage space on your device, repeat the steps 5-6 times or more and you'll notice an increase of almost 1 - 2GB newly available storage space on your IPhone and you should be able to download files you like.

How To Use Split Screen Mode On Your Android SmartPhone

As we're already aware, Android Nougat comes jam-packed with a range of features make the user experience as seamless as possible. The latest update highlights to be rolled out to Nougat include an improved notifications panel, optimization of the data and power saving mechanisms, and support for VR. One of the big ticket items that has won a lot of fans (us included) are the task management options. Thanks to the latest update, you can now use two apps simultaneously in split screen mode.

Not all apps are created equal, and for that reason you'll find that not all of them will be compatible with the split-screen mode. Don't worry, it's not you, it's them (the developers) as they will need to complete another update before more apps will be able to be used in this mode. For the moment, though, there is a way around this issue. You can run any application in split screen from the developer options in the latest version of the Google mobile operating system.

How To Run any app in split screen mode
First. you'll need to activate the developer options on your mobile. To do this go to Settings > Developer options > About this device. Once you are there click on "Version number" a few times until you receive a notice saying you are now a developer.

Return to the Settings menu and open "Developer options. Then scroll right down to the end of the page and enable the last option which is listed: "Force activities to be re-sizable." Once you've done this you will need to restart your phone to activate the option. Once you've activated this option, even those apps that aren't usually compatible with the Nougat upgrade will be able to run in split screen mode.

Finally, to activate the split screen mode, open two apps of your choice and then click and hold on the task manager button. Both apps will then open in the split screen mode.

Do you think the split screen mode will be helpful for your own multitasking needs? Or will you be sticking to the more traditional single task approach for the time being? Let us know in the comments below.
