Saavn Vs Gaana Vs Hungama Vs Wynk! Which One Should You Choose?

While music piracy is already losing as more people get online, There are countless entrants joining the race in Online Music Streaming.. So which one should you choose?

The question is actually "Which one is the best for YOU?" Each streaming service has its own set of pros and cons. The matter is to choose the one that works best for you.

THE QUALITY:

The primary objective of any streaming service is in the quality. The quality of a streaming service lies in its music bit rate. At this point, all streaming services offer the same thing. The bit rate varies from 64kbps to 320kbps where free tier users are capped at 128kbps max. theres' no winner here!


THE USER INTERFACE (OR) UI:

UI decides the entire mood of the app.. In terms of UI I would say Hungama and Saavn are the best. Saavn has the most interesting and perfect UI that is very visually appealing and smooth to use as well! Hungama on the other hand has a great color theme and material look. Hungama will be the first to alert you as and when music happens! Im' a great fan of Gaanas' Dark Theme.

Wynk on the other side has a very poorly organised UI. The red theme of Wynk constantly alarms you that it is an app from Airtel. Wynk has a very cluttered and highly un-appealing UI ever..

Winner: Saavn - Hungama Tie


PLANS AND PRICING:

Premium users get a lot of advantages over free users. If you are a music freak, consider upgrading!(seriously!). All services charge almost equally, Rs.99 per month on Android. On Wynk, you get everything for free if you are an Airtel user (yeah data charges apply of course!). The trial period differs for each service. On Saavn and Hungama, you get a 7-day trial to try them out. Gaana gives you a Two week trial and Wynk on the other hand gives you a good One month to try out the app! Wynk also goes on No-ads approach on free  tier but caps the number of songs you can stream in One month.

Winner: Wynk


SPECIAL FEATURES:

Hungama offers Mood based song playbacks and Videos. Saavn and gaana has Exclusive content. Wynk has curated playlist for running.

Winner: Hungama

PLATFORMS:

Gaana:      Android, IOS, Windows Phone, Web, Windows PC
Hungama: Android, IOS, Windows Phone, Web, Windows PC
Saavn:       Android, IOS, Web, Windows PC
Wynk:       Android, IOS, Web (which is pretty useless)

Winner: Gaana - Hungama Tie


SONG LIBRARY:

Saavn has the richest song library of 30 Million songs! Gaana has 10 Million songs, Wynk 2.5 Million and Hungama 2 Million songs. Hungama has a very poor song library and is basically a T-Series distributor in my view. Hungama lacks partnership with important music labels such as Eros Now. I was not able to find most of the songs I needed on Hungama. Saavn throws literally every song you want! Gaana and Wynk has decent library thats' enough for daily use.

Winner: Saavn


OTHER SERVICES: 

While there are other services like Google Play Music, Apple Music and Guvera, none of them are worth mentioning. Apple Music is highly bugged on Android and very costly. Google Play music is very complex to use (atleast in my view). Guvera lacks song collections and has tons of ads!


So its totally upto you to choose which music service to go with. My personal favorites are Saavn and Hungama. So which streaming service are you choosing!?

Super Mario Run Available For Pre- Register On Play Store.

Three months after it made a massive splash on iOS, Nintendo’s mobile side-scroller game Super Mario Run finally has a release time frame on Android. The company confirmed, via its Twitter account, that the game will be released sometime in March 2017 in the Google Play Store.

It’s been a bit of a long wait for Android fans to get their hands on the latest Mario game from Nintendo. Super Mario Run launched worldwide in mid-December for iOS and it generated 40 million downloads in just its first four days in the App Store. The excitement for the game has gone down since then, but a launch on Android should help boost those overall download numbers.

The game itself has you controlling Mario in an endless running style of gameplay through a number of 2D worlds that will seem both familiar and new to fans of the Super Mario Bros. console series. You can play part of the game for free but you will have to spend $9.99 to unlock all of its content. You can pre-register for Super Mario Run right now at the link below so you can get informed when it launches.

Nintendo also plan to launch another mobile game, the fantasy tactical-RPG Fire Emblem: Heroes, on Android in about two weeks, on Feb. 2.

Facebook Messenger launches 'Instant Games'!

Facebook Messenger just got a whole new set of games on the app. If you’re worried about the return of Farmville, don’t; playing ‘Pac-Man’ with your friends is now an option on Facebook Messenger. Basketball and football were already available as an option, but it looks like Facebook is adding a lot more games in order to cash in on the fun.

In an official announcement on the Facebook Newsroom, the company says, “Messenger is just got way more… competitive” The post reads, “So when you’re looking for a reason to connect with your best friend who lives on the other side of the world, you can kick off a round of Words with Friends: Frenzy; or try again to beat your roommate at PAC-MAN just once…”

Games available include classics such as “Space Invaders” and “Galaga,” as well as newer titles like
“Words With Friends.” It’s the latest effort by the world’s biggest social network to get people to spend even more time on its properties.

So how can you play these? Facebook Messenger app once updated will have a game controller icon just below the box where you type messages. Tap on the icon, and pick a game that you wish to play. After you finish a round, your friend or friends in that conversation will see your score and can challenge you back. Facebook says people can also discover games within the Messenger search field, or on Facebook News Feed where they can play solo as well.

Facebook Messenger has a over 1 billion monthly users, and the addition of new games will only increase engagement and time-spent on the app. The app will also recommend games based on whether your friends are playing some titles as well. Thankfully you don’t have to worry about gaming requests from strangers in the Messenger app, as you can only play these with your friends.

Facebook is calling this feature “Instant Games,” and it will go live in 30 countries, with 17 titles. For Facebook, ensuring that it continues to dominate the messaging scene is crucial given the rise of new apps like Snapchat, etc. Facebook has been copying Snapcht’s features like Stories, Disappearing message, filters, etc quite aggressively. But the ‘Instant Games’ bit is something that the social media giant managed to capitalise on, and will no doubt be a hit with users especially for ‘Pac-man’ fans.

Facebook launches Messenger Lite for Android

Facebook is launching a well Trimmed-Down version of the its Messenger app. After the launch of the Facebook Lite which is again a cut down version of the full featured Facebook app, messenger lite provides almost the same experience of the full version yet coming in a friendly package size. With this size, Do Not expect Voice and Video Calls since the main focus of this app is to make it work on slower and older mobiles. The app has the basic functions like texting, sending images and receiving stickers (sending stickers is not possible though.). The lite version of its sister app does not include the diverse emojis of the new messenger app and instead uses the ones included with your android stock. Like the Facebook lite, it'll be interesting to see that the battery will last longer than using the full featured memory suckers.

It seems logical that both Facebook Lite and Messenger Lite are not released on IOS as well as Windows Mobiles since they are targeted for phones with low memory and poor connections. As of the launching phase, it is being launched it 5 countries which include Kenya, Tunisia, Malaysia, Sri Lanka and Venezuela and to be launched soon in other countries over the next few months. You can still get the app in other countries Here.

How To: Share ZIP, PDF or APK Files on WhatsApp?

Whatsapp is considered to be most sought-after messenger for Apple iOS, Android, Nokia S40 and Symbian 60, Blackberry and Windows Phone. Apart from sending texts, users can also share audio and video files as well as images. However, it offers these facilities with some limitations

1. Users can share videos, images and audio only. It doesn’t come with any built-in function that can allow users to share Doc, PDF, APK and more.
2.  The size of any file to be share shouldn’t exceed 16 MB. It means videos over 16 MB cannot be shared. However, Whatsapp comes with functionality to compress or trim video files before you share.  However, it still has limitation. Sending very large videos is not possible.
3. While sending images, Whatsapp compresses and sends it to the recipient. Though you cannot find any difference on mobile, one can notice the quality reduction in computer. It will reduce the quality if you send HD images.

These were the critical problems with Whatsapp. But you can share any video, image, audio or any other type of file through third-party sources without compromising quality and share them with your buddies. However, it can be a bit lengthy. So, have a look on some easy steps to share media to your friends with no loss of quality. All you need are Dropbox and CloudSend for Android.

Steps to Share PDF, ZIP or APK files

You will be able to control it completely. Now you can close the app after completing the authorization.

Why does iPhone seem more fluid than Android?

Fairly or unfairly, Google's Android often gets knocked for having a lagging or stuttering user interface when compared to Apple's iOS on iPhone and iPad. TiPb's previously guessed that this stemmed from very early architectural decisions made by Apple, who had a full screen, multi-touch UI -- albeit it a highly limited one -- in mind from the outset, as opposed to Google who originally had Android set up as a BlackBerry, Windows Mobile Standard, and Nokia competitor that had no need for high performance, sophisticated UI rendering.

That might turn out to be pretty much the case. In response to a Google+ post about hardware acceleration by Android engineer Dianne Hackborn, ex-Google intern Andrew Munn breaks down why Android's way of handling graphics and event processing hinders the OS from offering users a more fluid, lag-free UI.

Android UI will never be completely smooth because of the design constraints I discussed at the beginning:

• UI rendering occurs on the main thread of an app

• UI rendering has normal priority

The iPhone changed things by introducing a dedicated thread with high priority for handling UI rendering, redirecting all power (CPU and GPU) to handling UI element rendering in realtime based on touch input. The result? Smooth-as-butter UI elements, transitions and animations as soon as you touch the screen -- even on older hardware when paired with the latest iOS 5 software. The drawback: everything else, from app downloads to content rendering will pause so the UI can keep that high frame rate, high quality redraw pace.

Munn does disclose that he was only an intern with Google's Android team and never actually got his hands on the raw Android source code, so this could be taken as supposition.

Jerry Hildenbrand from Android Central says there might be a bit more to it:

The way it stands now, as long as you have free resources to run multiple UI threads [in Android] the UI is amazingly smooth -- easily as smooth as the iPhone or WP7 phones. Problem is that nobody sets resource management up in a way to keep them free. A simple customization to the linux lowmemkiller kernel parameter fixes it, at the expense of huge memory hogs like Facebook or HTC applications. One day, when we have Octocore 12NM Cpu's, DDR3 RAM, and huge batteries this way will prove better. For now, you have to hack at it.

So Android can be set up to prioritize UI, if that's what's wanted, but it's not automatic like iOS. That might annoy user experience snobs, like our friends on the Iterate podcast but it might be a fine tradeoff for those with other priorities, like the big screens, different skins, and high customizability that Android's design does allow.

5 awesome iOS games go free to mark App Store anniversary.

Five years ago this week, Apple forever changed the mobile world by introducing us to the App Store, and to celebrate, a slew of seriously cool games are totally free today. None of these games have ever been free before, so be smart about it and grab them, like, five seconds ago:

Infinity Blade II
There's a good chance you already own this graphically rich combat game, but on the off chance you don't, you have no more excuses -- unless you have a really, really old phone, because Infinity Blade II is still one of the most graphically intense games you can download. But provided you have an iPhone 4 or higher (it's pretty sluggish on a 3GS), pick it up!

Superbrothers: Sword and Sworcery EP
Artsy, inventive, scary, quirky -- however you describe it, Sword and Sworcery is a singular experience. Explore a beautiful realm, solve musical puzzles and do battle against creepy foes while using your iOS device in a multitude of clever ways. Our advice? Grab it on your iPad to truly enjoy the throwback visuals.

Where’s My Water?
Disney's multi-gazillion dollar iOS franchise isn't just charming and cute -- it's also a smartly-designed physics puzzler that deserves a spot on your iPhone.

Tiny Wings
The Little Birdie That Could! Built by German developer Andreas Illinger, this gorgeous, simple game about a bird with wings too small to fly bumped the unstoppable Angry Birds off the top of the App Store charts when it debuted in 2011. It's gotten even better since.

Badland
The most recent iOS game on this list, the highly-rated Badland lets you guide a weird bat-thing through a planet out to kill you every flap of the way. Normally $3.99, it's a steal.

A selection of free non-game apps are available as well, including journal app Day One, photo text-overlay app Over, the huge cookbook How to Cook Everything, Barefoot World Atlas, and, perhaps most impressive of all, Traktor DJ, a pro DJ software tool that usually sells for $20.

The App Store launched with a mere 500 apps on July 10, 2008. In May of this year, Apple announced that it passed the 50 billion download mark.

Temple run 2 beats Angry Birds record!

Angry Birds are really angry!

IMANGI STUDIOS is probably pretty proud of itself today, as it's latest creation Temple Run 2 has beat Angry Birds' download record.

On Thursday the developers announced that the game, which sees you running around cliffs - as Damian Lewis in Homeland, we like to imagine - avoiding drops, obstacles and monkeys, we think, has been downloaded 50 million times since its release on 17 January.

This makes the Temple Run sequel the fastest downloaded mobile app of all time, besting the previous record set by Rovio's Angry Birds, which was download 50 million times in 35 days. It also means that Imangi Studios has seen 3.85 downloads day, 160,000 an hour, 2,671 a minute and 45 every second.

"Temple Run has evolved into something so much bigger than us," said Keith Shepherd, co-founder of Imangi. "The game has performed beyond our wildest dreams, and we are thrilled that gamers and fans have embraced Temple Run 2 in such a short period of time."

The original Temple Run game, which was a paid for app, has reached 170 million downloads in total, and given that its successor is available as a free download, this record is likely to be beaten in the coming weeks.

Temple Run 2 is available to download from the iTunes Store, Google Play and the Amazon App Store. µ
