Why block websites on Android? First of all, Android phones have become quite popular among kids and teenagers of all ages. Obviously, not all sites are safe for kids, and parents might as well consider blocking those sites on their kids’ smartphones. On the other hand, some adults find certain websites too addictive, affecting their concentration levels and productivity in day-to-day work. As a result, they may prefer blocking these sites for certain amount of time or until their work is done.
One thing that I often read or hear is that you shouldn’t leave your phone plugged in after it is fully charged because this will ruin the battery. Although this may have been true in the past, this is simply NOT true with current smartphones.
The reason for this is that today’s smartphones use lithium-ion batteries. You must have heard of lithium-ion phosphate batteries smartphones use the miniature version and these batteries, along with the phones they are part of, are designed to be smart enough to stop charging when they are full. One more related myth is that you need to fully charge the device before removing it from the charger. This is also not true. Today’s phones are built to handle this quite well too.
With modern businesses growing so fast and so many people turning to online businesses for services, there is a need for people around the globe to be able to communicate effectively all over the internet. Google, being the largest web service browser around, needs to have an application that translates various languages for its users to be able to search their topics of relevance. Google has therefore developed a Google translator application known as Google translate.
This application ensures that you are able to type in any language and then translate it into your desired language of choice. Google translate is also capable of voicing the language you have typed or translated. This is very advantageous especially for those people who want to learn other foreign languages. They can simply listen and repeat the words as voiced and, over time, master the basics of the language they want to learn.
