The best application for watching foreign TV series

The best application for watching foreign TV series

If you are a fan of foreign series, I believe you will like this application. This is an application for Android and iOS devices, and it can also be accessed via the web. It's called TVShow Time, and what does it offer?

1. It's free and without ads

You can use it without an account, but it is definitely better if you register. No annoying ads per app.

2. Community section

For each series and each episode individually, there is a section with comments where viewers write their impressions. Often some single out exciting scenes from an episode.

3. Episode and role rating system

When watching an episode, you can select the reaction: Good, Fun, Sad…, etc. You can also vote for the best role.

4. Lots of information about series and episodes

You can read the description of the episode and series, and see basic information such as genre, duration when it is broadcast, actors, and links to other sites. Also a proposal for similar series.

5. Agenda

Series display schedule.

6. Explore

In this section, you can find some new series of interest to you that you may not have heard of. You can search for them by popularity, latest, most followers… or genres.

7. Friends

You can add friends and follow their activities.

8. Badges

Over time, you win badges for various activities. I won a few on the first day: Surfer (I accessed the app via the web), Supporter (I liked someone’s comment), Emo (I chose the mood for an episode), Nomad (I used the mobile app). There are also "Addiction badges" where you get badges related to watching series - the more series the better. And in time, you can see yourself on the Leaderboards.

9. Account statistics

Here are details about which series you watched, which you watch, activity for the current week, last watched episode, time spent with the series (you can also share this information using the "Share" button), the total number of watched episodes, the total number of series, badges won...

10. Notifications

You can set which notifications you want to receive. And not only about the activities on the account, but also about the series themselves.

These are some 10 features that this application has, but of course, there is still a lot to write about. It is best to test:  http://www.tvshowtime.com/en

Chrome crashed in Pwn2Own

Google's Chrome browser crashed during the Pwn2Own competition. Yesterday, the first of three days of the competition was held.

Mobile Browsers

The Internet on mobile devices is becoming more popular and has more and more users. As mobile internet expands, so do mobile browsers. Although the devices themselves already have built-in basic internet browsers, new browsers are constantly appearing. The reason is that each of the programs brings something new and useful. For example, Opera Mini is most popular on older phone models that use Java applications, while on Android platforms Chrome , Firefox ,  Dolphin , and xScope are more represented.

Sony Xperia Z5 Dual Sim review [video + images]

The side edges are slightly curved to make the phone fit better in the hand, and the back of the device has a fine finish so there are no glare and fingerprints.
