Citroen announces Ami all-electric light quadricycle with 70km range

Citroën has announced in France a new all-electric light quadricycle called Ami. Designed to compete with the Renault Twizy electric quadricycle that has been around in the European market since 2012, the Citroën Ami is capable of delivering a driving range of up to 70 kilometres on a single charge and a claimed top speed of 45 kilometres per hour.

Watch how PUBG Mobile has been keeping cheaters out of the game

PUBG Mobile is not just about a hundred people fighting it out, keeping cheaters out is also a big fight for the developer in its goal to keep a fair and competitive environment in the game.

OnePlus to reveal something on March 3, and its not the OnePlus 8

There’s never a dull moment for the people at OnePlus. Just as the hype around the OnePlus Concept One was starting to simmer down, OnePlus UK’s twitter handle has announced the existence of another new product. A short video on the Twitter page lists March 3 2020 as the reveal date. The video shows a collection of pipes and metallic structures, without giving a clear idea of what the device could be. According to OnePlus UK’s tweet, this is not a smartphone or even a commercial product for that matter, leading us to believe that OnePlus may be gearing up to reveal another concept project to the world. Analysing the video, there seems to be a myriad of suggestions in there. At initial glance, the metallic parts seem to resemble the inside of a watch, but then we see a pipe-like structure that’s more commonly associated with the type of lens known as the probe lens. Briefly, we also see the number 6 machined into the side of one of the panels. Needless to say, the video is not giving...

Google Authenticator app no longer safe thanks to new malware

Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) was the industry’s answer to curbing illegitimate access for online accounts. This was especially the case to prevent bank accounts from being hacked and was eventually utilized by companies like Google, Facebook, Apple etc. Now a new security threat claims to be able to steal 2FA codes from the Google Authenticator. According to Threatfabric, new Android malware is capable of stealing 2FA codes from Google’s app. Typically apps like Google’s 2FA or even Microsoft’s App for that matter are considered safer than the SMS method of receiving 2FA codes. This was because SMS isn’t transmitted over a secure protocol and can be intercepted. Then there’s the additional threat of SIM cloning that has led to multiple counts of banking fraud in the past. Now, it would appear that Google’s 2FA app has also been proven to be vulnerable. According to Threatfabric, the malware is not yet being distributed or advertised on underground forums, suggesting that the hack ...

Google wants its apps back on Huawei devices, applies for a license

Huawei’s ongoing tussle with the U.S government has been ongoing for a while now. Because of a trade ban imposed on the Chinese company, Huawei had to lose out on offering Google services and apps in its new smartphones. A new report now states Google is keen to starting working with Huawei again and wants its apps back on Huawei devices. Google has reportedly applied for a license to bundle Google apps in Huawei devices and effectively resume business with the Chinese tech giant. Just a few days earlier, Google had warned Huawei users not to side load Google apps for security reasons. Google play and Android Vice President, Sameer Samat told German news outlet DPA that Google has applied for a license but could not comment on when a decision based on the application will be made. Last year, Microsoft was granted a similar license to do business with Huawei and continue having Windows OS in Huawei laptops like MateBook 13. Google can technically argue with the same logic Microsoft a...

WhatsApp Web, WhatsApp for PCMac to receive dark mode soon

WhatsApp is set to receive the much-awaited dark mode not just on mobile platforms but also on desktop platforms. According to a recent report by WABetaInfo, WhatsApp Web and WhatsApp for PC/Mac are currently being tested with a dark theme that paints the main screen and side panel in varying shades of dark grey. Unlike the latest WhatsApp Beta for iOS, this dark theme won’t be completely black and therefore, won’t aid in saving power on OLED display panels. WhatsApp is available for use on desktop platforms in two formats: WhatsApp for PC/Mac, which is a dedicated application that needs to be installed and run, or WhatsApp Web, which is essentially a website that can be opened on any modern browser. The latter is known to occupy lesser storage space than the former. Fortunately, both will receive the new dark theme. When it’s finally out, it should appear in Settings > Desktop Settings. Recently, WhatsApp Beta version 2.20.30.25 for iOS devices was spotted with an option to exte...
