Here's what a VPN can't protect you from (but you need to use it)

By Administrator
The abbreviation " VPN " has slowly become established among average Internet users, which is certainly good, but the problem is that people have started to see VPN as the ultimate solution to all problems.

New Google mobile internet saving application - Datally

New Google mobile internet saving application - Datally

I wrote an article on how to save internet traffic on an Android device and I suggested the Onavo Extend and Opera Max apps because they were the most popular back then. Meanwhile, Opera Max has been discontinued and Onavo has been completely redesigned and is now a VPN application with the option to save internet traffic. Their compression technology is probably now used by Facebook in its application because they bought Onavo - link. Google has decided to seize the opportunity and "push" with a new application called "Datally".

This application uses VPN to filter traffic, just like most others, and has one interesting option - blocking the Internet for background processes. What does that mean exactly? This means that, for example, Facebook will not consume megabytes if you have not started it, ie. if running in the background. Facebook will only be able to access the Internet when you start it manually. The same goes for any other application.

When you open an app and power-saving mode is enabled, Datally will save the internet even then, just like Opera Max did. You'll see savings information in the notifications panel.

If you connect your phone to a WiFi network, the power saving mode is paused, which is definitely a plus. In addition, the app will inform you about the surrounding WiFi networks so you can connect and save mobile internet. And if an application starts using large amounts of megabytes, you can block its access to the Internet with one click.

Of course, you also have consumption statistics, so you can see which application spends how much, how many megabytes you spent today, and how many in the previous week or month. You can also see the megabyte consumption for each application separately.

The only drawback, in my opinion, is that it must say that you are connected to a VPN, but Android has determined that, and if you have Rooted, you can remove it (various Xposed modules solve this). And I would also like to point out the fact that the application does not offer a more detailed display of consumption and savings for each application separately, but only basic information on the screen with all applications.

The Datally app is free to download globally so you can install it now:

The Galaxy Note was ridiculed when it appeared, and now…

By Administrator
Did you know that the first Samsung Galaxy Note was ridiculed by users and the media? Everyone laughed at his "huge" case and said that it would fall apart immediately after it appeared. They said that it was too big and that such a phone would never be used every day.

The difference between Sleep, Hibernate and Hybrid sleep options

By Administrator
What is the difference between regular Sleep mode and Hybrid sleep mode? And what is Hibernate ? I will try to explain in the simplest way possible so that everyone understands nicely. 1. Sleep When you select Sleep mode , all components of the computer except RAM are shut down to store data. So, if you do something on the computer and press Sleep, the computer shuts down and everything you did (left open windows, documents, etc.) is stored in RAM.

To click on the post or not?

By Administrator
Recently, Facebook has been flooded with " click bait " posts, and sometimes you don't know if there is something really useful behind that post or if it's just collecting clicks. There is a plugin that can partially reveal this to you. Nothing special, it's a Chrome extension called " Photo Zoom ". What does he actually do? Enlarges the image you hover over by loading the source address of the image . How can it help? Clickbait posts often "trick" users into clicking with an image (in addition to terrible headlines). They place those pictures so that only a part of them is visible on the Facebook wall and just enough to interest your potential. If you want to see the whole thing, you have to click on the link, which is their goal.

What is GLONASS?

By Administrator
If you've looked at the detailed specification of an Android or GPS device, you may have seen another term next to the GPS tag and didn't know exactly what it represents. Well,  GLONASS is a global navigation system that was started by the USSR in 1976, so this project could be taken over by Russia after the collapse of the Soviet Union.
