Windows phone store always lags official apps. But now the situation is slightly changing. Because in last week Microsoft has given new updates to Skype. They had also launched a new video editing app named Video Tuner. Now come up with a new app called Climatography for both Windows phone and Android phone users.

The app gives about climate information of various places along with weather conditions of different years. Most of the weather app will forecast about climate changes for upcoming days only.

Read eBook using Scribd


Scribd which is one among world’s largest digital library of over 80 million users. Now they have a new app to read eBooks on your Android and iOS. Now it is available for Windows phone 8, Windows phone 8.1. The users could access it by paying an amount of $8.99 per month with free subscription of one month. The subscription includes an instant access to 300,000+ books from 900+ publishers in all genres.

I don’t think it is a huge amount because those who read a lot has an opportunity to read unlimited number of books around the world without buying it. A web browser is also included in this app helps users to search things. Another main attraction of Scribd is that it has very good design of a book shelf. Users should need a better Wi-Fi connection otherwise it can’t be used smoothly.

  • Works in iPhone, iPad, Android, Windows devices
  • Millions of users around the globe
  • Pin favorite books to start screen
  • Need WiFi connection



“Music lovers has Netflix, music lovers have Spotify and now book lovers (whether they read fiction or best-selling potboilers) now have Scribd”

Facebook Android app consume less data

    Facebook's new Android app consumes 50 percent less data and 65 percent lighter than before. The social networking giant mainly aims to improve the quality of service for its users. Data efficiency get increased by using the WebP for transmitting Facebook images results in data savings when compared with JPG and PNG format. This all happened without perceived impact on quality.


    In past, images were loaded at maximum resolution to allow zoom-in feature. Now the process of loading images has been changed to the requested resolution equivalent to the size of view port in which image get appeared. Instead of loading a full image, the device only loads the image it needs to show such as a thumbnail. If someone wants to zoom-in an image then, the image will be changed to higher resolution. Otherwise images will be loaded at a resolution that devices had the ability to handle.


    In combination with better data usage for images, reports of slow or failed image loads dropped by almost 90 percent than earlier. This will boost up the speed of the application by a great extent and helps to use the Facebook in a much fast manner. The new app has various different facilities on liking and tagging post than before.
