Amazon Launches A New Free Video Streaming Service

In case you didn’t know, in addition to Prime TV, Amazon also owns IMDb TV, a free video streaming service. However, it seems that the company isn’t content with just owning two streaming services and has since announced its latest initiative in the form of MiniTV, a new service that has launched in India.

Given that it is free, MiniTV will be backed by ads and is available through the Amazon India app. Right now, the service is exclusive to India but who knows, maybe it will eventually find its way to other markets that Amazon operates in, but maybe don’t get your hopes up just yet until we get the official word.

According to Amazon, the initial category of shows that we can look forward to include tech, food, beauty, and fashion. Some of the titles in MiniTV have also been produced by web studios in India, but there will also be a back catalog of older content that was previously published on other platforms.

While it won’t bring the latest TV shows or movies, it will be a good option for those who are living in India and want to be able to watch a streaming service without having to pay for it. Right now it is only available on Amazon’s Android app but will eventually make its way onto iOS and mobile web.

WhatsApp Working To Expand Its Disappearing Mode Feature

Last year, WhatsApp introduced a new feature called Disappearing Messages. Basically what this feature does is that whenever you enable a chat with the feature, messages sent in that chat will automatically be deleted after 7 days, thus ensuring your privacy (to a certain degree). However, the downside is that you had to enable this feature manually for all chats.

This means that if you wanted Disappearing Messages enabled for all your chats, you’d have to do it one by one, which can be incredibly tedious and time-consuming. However, according to WABetaInfo, they have discovered that WhatsApp is working on expanding the feature where it will be called Disappearing Mode.

This is under the Privacy settings of WhatsApp and when enabled, it will apply to all new chats, not just specific ones. This will make it a lot more convenient for users who want to ensure a greater degree of privacy. WhatsApp already supports end-to-end encryption that prevents messages from being read even if they are intercepted, but this will add an extra layer in the event someone gets their hands on your phone.

There is currently no word on when the feature will be released but given that it made an appearance in the beta, hopefully it won’t be too long.
