Facebook Launches Live Streaming Lasso Application

Lasso Application

TECHNOLOGY-PORTFOLIO.NET - After some time ago, the social networking giant Facebook finally officially launched the Lasso, a short video-based application.

This application is present in order to seize contemporary or millennial teen users who are increasingly going to leave Facebook, where only half of the total teenage users (initially 71 percent in 2015) are still using social media at this time.

Lasso is a standalone application containing entertaining short videos, from comedy, beauty, to fitness and more.

Facebook will add slowly to gather feedback from Lasso users to develop their potential.

Lasso has the ability to display full-screen, Discover page, where users can search for videos made by other users, as well as a timeline page titled 'Today's top Creators'.

The page allows users to see the best video makers, or videos that are trending. All of these features are claimed to be easy to navigate.

In making content, the Lasso application is equipped with tools that allow users to lip sync, record short videos, and include music (licensed in the catalog) into videos that can be set to speed.

In addition to uploads and user profiles that can be seen 'publicly', Lasso also has the ability to 'cross-platform', which means users can upload the video to Facebook Stories.

Facebook also promises 'cross-platform' Lasso with Instagram Stories that will come in the near future.

The Lasso application is deployed for the Android and iOS platforms. Lasso users can log in easily using a Facebook or Instagram account.

In the meantime the new Lasso application can be used (downloaded) by users who live in the United States alone.

Facebook Messenger Will Be Able To Delete Messages That Have Been Sent

Facebook Messenger

TECHNOLOGY-PORTFOLIO.NET - Facebook will add a new feature that allows users to recall messages sent via Messenger. This certainly will make Messenger more attractive in the eyes of its users.

This feature is actually similar to what WhatsApp was released in 2017. Through a feature called "Unsend" users will be able to delete messages sent on both sides from both the sender and recipient side.

This unsend feature was first known by Jane Machun Wong, a Twitter user with an @wongjane account. Through his Twitter account he uploaded a screenshot showing the existence of the feature.

"Facebook Messenger finally made a feature of 'unsend message' for everyone!" Said Jane.

According to Jane's statement, users will be allowed to delete messages sent if they have passed a certain period of time.

Even so, there is no mention of the minimum period of time so the message can be deleted.

Where, this feature has not been officially released for all Messenger users in the world. The reason is we have tried to find this feature from several different accounts and still have not seen its existence.

Facebook itself has not commented on this finding. But 6 months ago, Facebook announced that it would present this feature to Messenger even though it didn't explain when the exact date was.

The "unsend" feature has actually been present first in the WhatsApp instant messaging application. Messages sent can be deleted through the delete for everyone option.

Previously, Facebook was also known to be testing the voice command feature on Messenger. Through this feature users can interact with a virtual assistant named M that appears in the conversation list.

Facebook is also trying various new features besides this. There are Aloha features, IGTV-like video platforms, History and map features, and Augmented Reality features.

Complete Leak Specifications Of The Oppo A7

Oppo A7

TECHNOLOGY-PORTFOLIO.NET - Recently a list of specifications has appeared that fully displays what specifications will be carried by the next smartphone from Oppo, the Oppo A7. For the lower middle class segment, Oppo does rely on its A series and if seen from the A7 specifications it does not bring anything spectacular.

If the Oppo A7x previously launched by the company is a slightly lower variant of the Oppo F9, now for the Oppo A7 it seems almost identical to the Oppo A5.

If we look at the list of specifications of the Oppo A7, then we will find specifications that are arguably standard, such as the 6.2-inch wide-screen full-screen IPS type and have HD + resolution. As for the kitchen, this smartphone will be powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 450 chipset which is fairly ordinary for the lower middle class.

Unlike the Oppo A5 which comes with a 4GB RAM variant only, the Oppo A7 will be present in a 3GB RAM variant as a lower model while maintaining a 4GB RAM model as well. But for internal storage, it seems that the A7 only has a 32GB variant that can be expanded by microSD, while the A5 comes with internal 64GB as the standard.

If you're wondering what upgrades the Oppo A7 brings, the answer is an increase in the selfie camera. Oppo equip this smartphone with a 16MP resolution front camera that has f / 2.0 openings. Whereas the rear camera still uses a 13MP + 2MP dual-camera setup. Unfortunately for now it is not known what price will be offered for the Oppo A7, but it is expected not far from the selling price of the Oppo A5.
