Apple is working on allowing multiple users access on iPhone

Apple is apparently working on a feature that will allow multiple users access on the same iPhone. Up to now, the iPhones have been considered to be personal devices made for an individual use.

However, the new feature which is worked upon by Apple will allow multiple users to access an iOS device. That means the same iOS device can have multiple users (or Apple IDs). The company is making this possible by introducing a secure enclave technology, which is expected to keep the personal information of one individual user completely private on iOS device.

According to the report of Appleinsider, Apple has referred to both multi-user laptop along with desktop computing devices and single user mobile computing devices. The company has already given this support for macOS but its patent filed indicated that the feature is originally being developed for iPhones.

According to the patent, a computing device can employ some different pass codes as well as associated encryption keys, where multiple encryptions keys or pass codes might be associated with each different user account on the same system.

The patent for a secure enclosure noted that the company is working to protect all user information including login details and Apple Pay details. In the future, Apple may introduce the Secure Enclave Processor or SEP, which could also be a high-quality version of the T2 security chip used on Mac devices. The same processor is expected to be installed on future iPhones.

The reports said, in addition to the potential for multiple users to share a device, Apple is also bringing a security that was hidden behind the familiar passcode or, maybe, Face ID.

The patent was filed in January, 2016. Therefore, it can be said that Apple has been thinking about providing multiple user support on iOS devices for quite some time.

However, in general, the iPhone 11 Pro Max is still a serious gaming machine thanks to its latest Apple A13 Bionic processor, a 64-bit monster with a GPU 20% faster than the older iPhone models, Spatial Audio technology, Apple’s stereo speakers, and Dolby Atmos support, as well as lots of clever software for developers to make games better than ever.

The evolution of mobile phone

The evolution of mobile phone

Now it’s hard to imagine a life without mobile phones and they have only been available for a short period of time.

The first mobile device emerged from the Motorola labs in 1973, weighing about 4kg, taking 10 hours to charge, and allowing 30 minutes of talk time. This was the beginning of what was to become one of the world’s biggest technological advances.

The 1980s to the 1990s, phones progressively got smaller. Looking back at the images of phones in the eighties conjures images of large, bulky phones with long impractical aerials. The nineties signified a move to a sleeker and more pocket-friendly option.

Who can forget the faithful Nokia 3310? The indestructible phone known to many of us. Flip phones and phones with keypads started to become more popular in the late 1990s and early 2000s.

In 2007, a phone came along that would change technology as we know it now. The iPhone was launched on June 29th 2007 and was the beginning of the mass move to smartphone devices.

With unlimited capabilities and new apps developed daily, the phone of the moment is undoubtedly the smartphone. In the first quarter of 2020, more than 336 million smartphones were sold and sales are set to rise as more affordable options are launched in the developing world.

The look and feel of smartphones have arguably come full circle by in some ways mimicking earlier models, with a move to larger (but usually thinner) devices. Screens in many cases are getting bigger and bigger, with ‘phablets’ (phone or tablet hybrids) becoming ever popular.

It’s not easy to say what phones in 2115 will look like and we can only imagine what they will be capable of.

Three useful tricks for mobile phones you may not have known

Three useful tricks for mobile phones you may not have known

These are three useful tricks for mobile phones – both for iOS and Android smartphone – that you might have not known.

1. Clean smartphone screen

If you are one of those who use a screen protector particularly a plastic one, there is a useful way to repair scratches on it.

In order to remove all the scratches, all you need to do is to get a toothpaste tube and squeeze it onto your screen. However, if your smartphone is not a waterproof one, you should put it on a screen protector, rub it all the way in, leave it for about five minutes and later wipe it off with a cloth.

Avoid using the toothpaste on a glass display since it could ruin the screen.

2. Use earphones button for camera clicks

A helpful function of earphones is that when you plug them in, if they have a remote on them, then you can use its button to take a photo remotely. That is also true for bluetooth earphones if you pair your bluetooth earphones.

You can take a photo remotely if your bluetooth earphones have a button by launching the camera and clicking the pause/play button. This is a great trick for taking group photos.

3. Free screen on a plane

Not all planes have a personal screen for each person to entertain. That doesn’t mean you always have to go without it. All you need to do is to download a film onto your smartphone in advance, or use inflight WiFi, provided that it is available.

If you don’t want to hold your smartphone up all flight long, you should prepare a zip bag beforehand and make a small hole next to the bottom for the audio cord. Then put the phone at the bottom of the bag, pull the tray down a bit, and stuff the end of the bag between the seat and the tray, and seal the tray.

Samsung’s new affordable 5G phone might be launched soon

Samsung’s new affordable 5G phone might be launched soon

The Samsung Galaxy A51 was launched in December of last year, but it seems to be relaunched soon with the new affordable 5G version, which promises to be the most affordable 5G phone of this brand.

Found by SamMobile, the Wi-Fi Alliance has certified a smartphone with the same identification code as the one we had heard a 5G version of the Galaxy A51 – certification normally only happens a short while before a new phone is unveiled. Therefore, this means that we might be able to see the Galaxy A51 5G very soon.

The Samsung Galaxy A51, which is a successor to the popular Galaxy A50 of last year, features four rear cameras, a big 6.5-inch FHD+ screen, and a large 4,000mAh battery as well.

We have heard so far that it doesn’t seem the 5G version has any difference on those fronts, despite the fact that its frame is metal, not plastic and it features a different pattern on the back – and of course, it has 5G connectivity.

The Galaxy A series of Samsung is home to some of the most affordable smartphones of this brand, so a 5G smartphone in this series would likely be much more affordable than in the Galaxy S20 line. And given the numbering, the Galaxy A51 5G should even be more affordable than the Galaxy A90 5G in 2019.

However, it’s unlikely that Samsung is going to claim the trophy for the cheapest ever 5G phone because the recently-announced Xiaomi Mi 10 Lite likely takes the name there.

While the coronavirus sweeps the world, phone launches have been rather up in the air with launches postponed, canceled, or held online. Therefore, we will have to see what happens with the Galaxy A51 5G of Samsung.

Since Samsung doesn’t tend to give a lot of pomp to its A-series launches, the first official sighting that we can get of this phone might be its surprise listing on the website of the company.
