Feature that Whatsapp may release sooner to attract the wide group of mobile users

Read Mode for WhatsApp Users:
==================================
Read Mode is one of the most anticipated features on WhatsApp. The feature has been often spotted in the beta versions of the app. The Read Mode inverts the colours to help reduce strain on eyes, especially after sunset. Google has already added the feature on some of its key applications including Chrome browser and YouTube. Apple introduced system-wide Dark Mode with iOS 13.

Instant media edit:
======================
WhatsApp is working on a "Instant Media Edit" feature. Spotted in the recent beta version of the app, the feature allows users to make changes to media files sent or received. Note the feature is different from the existing edit tools that WhatsApp provides. Users can edit the media in-chat and share directly. 

Frequently forwarded:
============================
In a bid to fight fake news and misinformation on its platform, WhatsApp last year added a "forwarded" label on messages that have been forwarded by the sender. 

The company is now going to improve this feature by adding a "frequently forwarded" label. Whatsapp is also working on a new feature that will tell how many times a message has been forwarded. The feature is expected to be part of the info section which tells when the message was delivered and when it was read.

QR code and Contact CAM:
===========================
WhatsApp is making it easier to add a new contact through QR codes and expected to also bring along a feature of recognising Mobile contact using camera. Expected to launch very soon, WhatsApp's QR code is said to be very similar to nametags on Instagram. Each user will receive a unique QR code which can be shared with others. WhatsApp already uses QR code for WhatsApp Web that mirrors the phone version.

Garbage Collection Monitoring Using QR Code-Based Mobile Application Tracing the Garbage Collection Vehicles

  Abstract This paper presents a system for monitoring garbage collection using a mobile application that tracks garbage collection vehicles through QR codes. The system aims to improve waste management efficiency by providing real-time information on vehicle locations and collection routes. We describe the design and implementation of the mobile application, QR code generation and scanning, and the backend system for data processing and analysis. Results show that the system can effectively track garbage collection vehicles and provide useful insights for optimizing collection routes and schedules. Introduction Efficient garbage collection is crucial for maintaining clean and healthy urban environments. However, many cities struggle with inefficient waste management systems due to poor tracking and monitoring of collection vehicles. This paper proposes a solution using QR codes and a mobile application to track and monitor garbage collection vehicles in real-time. Methodology The ...

SAN Storage Medium and Its Benefits for Manifesting Data and Backing Up Mail Data with Subscription-Based Models for IoT Users

  Abstract This paper explores the use of Storage Area Network (SAN) as a storage medium for Internet of Things (IoT) users. It discusses how SAN can help store and back up data, especially mail data, using subscription-based models. The paper looks at the benefits of this approach for IoT users and considers its impact on data management. Introduction As more devices connect to the internet, the amount of data generated grows rapidly. This creates a need for better ways to store and manage this data. SAN offers a solution to this problem, particularly for IoT users who need to store and back up large amounts of data, including emails. SAN Storage Medium SAN is a network that connects servers to storage devices. It allows multiple servers to access the same storage, making it easier to manage and use data. SAN uses high-speed networks, which means data can be accessed quickly and easily. Benefits of SAN for IoT Users Scalability: SAN can grow as data needs increase, which is import...

WLC-Based Alert System for Excessive Data Usage in Household Networks

  Abstract This paper explores the implementation of a Wireless LAN Controller (WLC) system to monitor and manage data usage in household networks. The proposed system aims to raise alerts for excessive data consumption and convert usage patterns according to subscription-based data consumption models. We discuss the design, benefits, and challenges of such a system, as well as its potential impact on household internet management and service provider operations. Introduction As internet usage continues to grow, households face challenges in managing their data consumption within subscription limits. This paper proposes a solution using Wireless LAN Controllers to monitor and control data usage in home networks. WLC-Based Data Monitoring System System Architecture The proposed system uses a WLC to oversee all connected devices in a household network. It tracks data usage in real-time and compares it to the subscription plan limits. Alert Mechanism When data usage approaches or exce...
