Bing For Android Gets More Palatable With Searching By Image

It is a reality that for Android users, Google Search happens to be the principal search service that is common use. But that doesn’t exclude the fact that other options certainly exist. These other options run across the Bing Search app from Microsoft for Android. And now Microsoft has embarked on rolling out an update that has gained the app a feature though this functionality already exist with Google. This is the Image Search.

That is, as a consequence of this update, Bing for Android will now assume the capacity to search for stuff by images. That is in the case where you are an ardent Bing user or was considering jumping on it, this is surely one of those functions you should get your hands on after installing.

Certainly, conducting searches by image is not the sole feature on the list of fresh feature updates that Microsoft is spicing Bing for Android with. But this should though particularly stands out.

Now, having noted this point, I may ride on to the barcode scanner, which is also one fresh addition to the app. How it works is that say someone who has this liking for matching prices could possibly search for stuff so ascertain whether someone could offer an improved deal on the item he intends buying. Where I think this could be maximally useful is probably for grocery shopping and then it itches you to know if you are buying at the best available prices. Microsoft has equally announced that that stores like eBay as well as Best Buy are among the locations which you could get results for when you possibly engage in scanning a barcode for a product.

Certainly, you are not going to argue with me that Bing is now more palatable.

No one else can read your WhatsApp chat as WhatsApp gets end to end encryption

Completely everything on WhatsApp is now encrypted end-to-end irrespective of the operating system you are using. The implication of this now is that even the engineers handling WhatsApp can’t even read your messages neither can they generally have a view of videos sent by its users. And they can’t even provide any data from your chat even if a courts orders them to.

No one else can read your WhatsApp chat as WhatsApp gets end-to-end encryption.

“WhatsApp’s end-to-end encryption ensures only you and the person you’re communicating with can read what is sent, and nobody in between, not even WhatsApp,” going by the explanatory details published WhatsApp’s website.

The user base of WhatsApp now runs into over a billion users therefore enthroning it firmly as the world’s most famous chat app. This end-to-end encryption move was not entirely a bolt from the blue, WhatsApp has been gradually pushing it on board as some hundreds of millions were already having a little taste of this encryption on Android since November 2014; only that the encryption wasn’t covering every message like photos, group chats and videos. Moreover there was no encryption for other systems like Windows Phone or Apple’s iOS.

“Now every message, photo, video, file, and voice message you sends , is end-to-end encrypted by default if you and the people you message use the latest version of our app. Even your group chats and voice calls are encrypted,” WhatsApp co-founder JanKoum explained via means of a Facebook post on Tuesday.

Some signs informing the users that encryption has taken centre stage. There is now the appearance at the top of every new chat a text bubble which confirms that calls as much as calls are currently covered with end-to-end encryption. As a user, you can now also make verifications manually as to the encryption of a chat by making comparison of a 60-unit string of codes which is generated for each and every chat. Another way to know is via making a scan of very distinct QR code.
