Become A Part Of Delhi Police With Android

Delhi Police has recently launched an official feedback app for all the citizens of Delhi. This is a major initiative taken by Delhi Police to reduce the crime that happens on a day to day basis.

With this app, any citizen can report feedback, concerns etc directly to the Police Station Head Officer. The response given through this app, goes directly to the nearest Police Station Head Officer in the circle from which the feedback is given.

This app can help police to trace down criminals as data can be sent to Police directly while the crime is happening. Data can be sent in the form of text, images, video etc to the Police which would help Police in providing better security to the citizens of this country.

The data which comes to the Police from citizens using this app, gets stored on the police phone directory. Automatically, the crime data is reported with the GPS location. The location can also be modified by citizens manually if they want to and then this data is sent to the nearest Police Station.

This is a great system introduced by Delhi Police to reduce crime in Delhi. Many of the crimes do not simply get recorded because people do not have enough proof to say that a particular crime happened with them. But with the introduction of this kind of applications, any crime can be recorded or pictures of the crime scene can be sent to police while the crime is happening. This would greatly help police in tracking down the criminals and reduce the overall crime rate in the country.

We would like to praise Delhi police for taking such steps to secure the citizens of the country and making every possible way to try to help the common people. It is steps like these that would help police earn the respect of common man. Police forces in India work very hard for their duties but all the hard work that they put in are overshadowed by corruption in this country. We hope that introduction of this application would help Delhi Police earn some respect in the hearts of people of Delhi.

Take Your Android To Your PC With BlueStacks App Player!

Ever played a game or used an application on your mobile device that you wish existed for your computer/laptop as well?

Well, if you are an Android users, which has a market place filled with millions of applications, some of them so good that we too have also felt that it would have been awesome if we were able to run the same applications on our PC. To quote a couple, Fruit Ninja, Angry Birds and a few others have been our all time favorite that we have always wished to play on our PCs.

So here is an application which, well, we wouldn’t term it anything less than revolutionary. An application has been developed that lets you run Android application without doing any changes to your system OS! The alpha version of its App Player — software that allows users to run a host of Android apps on Windows PCs, tablets or desktops, without requiring them to make modifications to their original OS.  It features 10 pre-loaded apps along with an option to add custom apps. You can either download new apps from the BlueStacks Channel or push your favorite apps from your Android phone to your PC via BlueStacks Cloud Connect.

Even though the Alpha test version of the app player has been called off for now and one can expect the beta version to be available anytime soon but if you are one of those who loves to ‘try’ things out before they are officially available, here is the alpha version of the App Player which, as stated, will let you use 10 pre loaded apps and a few custom apps which is supports as of now.

A great feature of this application is that you can push the apps from your Android device to your PC by using the BlueStacks Cloud Connect option. To use BlueStacks Cloud Connect, you must first install the BlueStacks Cloud Connect app on your phone from the Android Market. Once done, open the Cloud Connect page on your PC’s browser to receive a Phone PIN. Open the app on your phone, enter the PIN and tap OK. You should now be able to see a list of all your apps inside BlueStacks Cloud Connect. Check the app that you want to push to your PC and tap Sync.

All in all, this is one application that you should surely try out. Even though the application was only in its alpha version, it showed a lot of promise letting you run applications without much issues. Hence, expectBluestacks to come up with support for many more applications and make your desktop your next Android home!

Amazing application. A must try for all.

In the end, here is a video by the developers of the App Player that lets you run Android applications on your PC!

SmartRoute Contacts: An App Bringing Together Twitter , Facebook And Other Contact Information In One Profile!

Platform- iOS, Android, Chrome Extension

Cost: Free

Smartr Contacts, as the name suggests is a contact manager application for your mobile device as well as your gmail on your laptop or PC. Essentially, Smartr Contacts pulls contact and calendar information from your Google account, sorts everyone, adds a picture to their profile, and tries to make sense of why you’ve contacted them in the first place. You can also log in to social media sites like Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn to see more detailed information about your contacts. Otherwise, you’re limited to three of the four tabs available whenever you choose a contact. Basically, the more information you provide it, the smarter the app gets. The more you use it and interact with your contacts, the better it will rank your contacts. When you first sign up for the app, however, it has a pretty good idea of who your most used contacts are. 

What smartr contacts does is that it allows you to effectively manage all your contacts and it does so by integrating your different contacts from different social media accounts as well as Gmail in one single place. The contact entries are quite detailed with four informational tabs: Details, Social, History and Common. It shows a picture of that person (either their Facebook photo or Google Account photo) at the top and indicates whether they’re part of the Top 10 or not. The Details tab shows phone numbers as well as e-mail addresses they use with their various accounts. Social shows their social networking activity and history shows your call, text and e-mail history. You also get a neat little graph at the top of the tab showing the frequency of contact. You can see the friends you have in common with them on the History tab.

For those of you who are students of technology will be able to relate this application to something that was released a few time back. We are talking about the integration of all the contacts in Windows Phone Devices which does pretty much the same thing. Places all your contacts in one place and provides you with a detailed history from all the accounts you are linked with to that person. 

So smartr contacts provides you with that one big USP that Windows Phone devices would have thrived on or rather are thriving on! The fact that it is a cross platform application i.e. available for your gmail, Android and iOS (still in beta) devices, it helps you manage all your contacts effectively. For those of you wondering how it does that cross platform, you have to create a ‘xobni’ account (the developer of the application) so that the contacts are saved on the cloud and retrieved every time you login from a different device. 

The fact that this application stores up to 10,000 contact entries and manages them very effectively, lets your integrate all your accounts (we say all for gmail, facebook, twitter and linkedin are what most people use nowadays), it is one of the better contact management applications that we came across. 

All in all, Smartr Contacts definitely gets smarter as you use the app and surely manages your contacts pretty effectively and efficiently. We give it a 4.5/5 from us at OP. We  cut the half for it would have been much more effective had it let users integrate contacts from other email and social media clients as well. Still, a must have contact manager for your device!

Let us know how you feel about this app!
