Longtime feature or application needed - Call recording option in iPhone

Even though iPhone operating system - iOS has ton of premium features for its users there was one major feature that the operating system feel lack over Android was the "in-built call recording option". For a long time, the Android phones were having call recording feature enabled through freeware or system integrated third party applications and the most users felt those applications were introduced as part of Android system updates due to its simplicity. However, for most iPhone or iOS users finding reliable and trusted application to enable call recording in iPhone is most complicated and tiring process.

Existing list of applications

There may be wide range of applications available in Appstore enabling users to record calls in their iPhones and most of those applications lack one feature or the other like

• Freeware and limited functionalities: There are applications which promises to offer application for FREE and only post installation, users may be notified of FREE trial and the features are available only in premium versions. 
• High Functionalities and subscription fees: The other contrast list of applications available for call recording in iPhone are either have premium one-time purchase cost or may have recurring monthly subscription costs. 

Solution:

Hope, either Apple introduced call recording option as in-built system feature, or any developers launch call recording option for users with affordable pricing or through Freeware. The availability of call recording feature in iPhone will surely address its long-lasting complaints from its premium users.

Issues in Windows OS and lack of availability for locking browsers

I have been using windows laptop for my office work and strangely I was not able to lock certain actions or password protect applications. To detail further, following are my expectations on my windows laptop and shortcomings in each of those actions. 

• Locking browser: I wanted the browser to be locked for my employees and should be opened only when they enter password or authenticated only for specific employees. However, there are many applications available for windows and most of those applications are termed as EXE locker and lock when those applications are executed. The browser will not work like normal applications and the moment when EXE file is locked, the browser will get stuck and will not work, as it used to work. Only when the application is completely reinstalled or EXE locker is removed, the browser would work normally. 
• Locking extensions/add-ons in browsers: There are ton of add-ons or extensions available for all browsers, promising to lock the browser at start-up or would lock specific URL with defined passwords. However, post installation most add-ons or browser extensions does not work and often gets crashed or does not serve the promised purpose. The most frustrating part is, these browser extensions or add-ons are still available in the respective browsers with high ratings, even though they do not work as detailed. 

Hope one day, a developer or even windows in-built functionality allows users to lock the browsers with passwords or passcode before start-up and it was my most sought after feature for my employees. For more such articles, please feel free to check out the articles published in "G R Team Sites"

Indian Apple music lovers were left in lurch with no update

In recent Apple WWDC held on June 2021, Apple had announced launch of Dolby Atmos support for entire music catalogue available in Apple Music. Few hours after the launch, most users across globe have started posting update on availability of Dolby Atmos features in their Apple Music catalogue. However, users in India have started to post their comments, that even though they had both Apple subscription and latest software update, they were unable to get exclusive Dolby features in their catalogue. The users understand that is may take some for rolling out the features across globe and hope it would be available sooner than later. The delay in availability of Dolby features for Indian users is a real shocker and it impacts Apple brand in the country. India being a market potential country for Apple, they should have released the features to users while it was rolled out across globe out if they had legal obstruction in releasing the feature, it should have provided at least update to its loyal users. The deleted feature update to Indian users and not a single new update about the delay would impact its brand value in the country. For more such blog posts, please feel free to check out the G R Team Sites.
