CPH Crypto Offers Total Trading Flexibility With New Mobile App for iOS and Android - WFMZ Allentown

ios.indah.link

COPENHAGEN, Denmark, Jan. 4, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Just a couple of weeks ago CPH Crypto, a leading Scandinavian deep-discount crypto exchange, announced margin trading 10x on crypto spot as its latest service. The company is proud to announce that traders can now onboard as clients and conduct all trading activities via CPH Crypto's new mobile Trader App now available as Android and iOS platforms.

CPH Crypto Trader APP for Flexible Trading

The new trader app enables clients to start trading after just a couple of minutes of registration and onboarding. The CPH Crypto Trader App allows users to trade all the most popular cryptocurrencies and pairs, swiftly deposit, transfer, and withdraw bitcoin and USD anytime.

CPH Crypto's CEO, Jan Andersen describes the recent progress, stating:

"We have come a long way in only a few months since the launch of CPH Crypto webtrader in September. Margin trading on crypto spot was successfully launched just recently, and now our apps are ready. We know that this is extremely important for our clients because it offers them total trading flexibility. They can do everything on the smartphone and use the mobile trading apps like their usual desktop trading."

Unlimited Trading For Just 39 USD/Month

According to CPH Crypto's philosophy, traders should only have to focus on their strategy and not on the costs when they trade. That is why CPH Crypto goes against the trend of high trading fees on the crypto market and offers a deep-discount fixed fee of only 39 USD/month for unlimited trading. Or a commission of only 0.04 pct. per transaction for single trading.

CEO Jan Andersen explains:

"In the traditional stock and FX trading market competition has driven down fees to a low level over the last decade. The same needs to happen in the crypto space, but we want it to go faster, and that's why we launched our discount concept in September."

Dominant Trading Platforms Up to 13X More Expensive

Recent calculations clearly document that some of the biggest crypto trading platforms are as much as 13 times more expensive for active crypto traders to use than CPH Crypto.

To obtain a complete view of a particular broker's or exchange's trading fees, individuals need to take both commissions and spread into consideration. Traders tend to forget the impact of the spread on the total costs, even though the spread is often where the most significant part of the total fees is hidden, especially when trading on so-called commission-free brokers or exchanges.

Typically these brokers/exchanges tend to compensate for the lack of fee on commission by heavily increasing the spread - the difference between the bid price and the sales price - enabling them to earn their margin on the spread instead. On top of this, traders should not forget that high fees on money management - like deposits and withdrawal - is also added to the total costs.

Unique Crypto Deposit Insurance

Jan Andersen underlines that CPH Crypto offers the same services and features as the leading international trading platforms, stating:

"We offer margin trading 10x on crypto spot, deep streaming institutional level of liquidity and market depts, realtime quotes, tight spreads and genuine best execution standards. And from today our mobile apps are available too,"

Jan continues:

"In addition to all this, CPH Crypto offers exceptionally low fees; and another unique feature is our crypto deposit insurance, which together with the low fees makes CHP Crypto a truly unique player on the crypto trading market."

What the insurance does is to guarantee all the clients' deposits in cryptocurrencies, which means, for instance, that in the unlikely case of a hack of the trading platform, all the clients' deposits in cryptocurrencies will be insured. To prove the extreme differences in fees between CPH Crypto and four globally dominant trading platforms, CPH Crypto has conducted a line of price comparison based on concrete examples.

Anyone can download the CPH Crypto Trader App now on Google Play or iOS and take advantage of some of the lowest fees in the industry.

Five iOS bugs and annoyances Apple needs to fix in 2021 - ZDNet

ios.indah.link

With every iOS update, I become increasingly convinced that the platform has outgrown Apple's ability to managed it.

It feels that Apple is more focused on new features than actually fixing and streamlining the platform, and there are aspects of the platform that have seem little to no love in years.

Must read: Must-have tech gadgets to start 2021 the right way

1: Fix AirDrop

AirDrop is great when it works, but when it doesn't, it's a nightmare. It offers no way to diagnose what's going wrong, and I end up having to reboot everything and futz about with the network connections to get it working again.

The unreliability of AirDrop means that I normally work around it -- emailing things to myself usually -- to avoid having to get into a fight to make it work.

2: Let me mute specific apps

Some apps can be super noisy, either by design, or because they switch to noisy ads. This is jarring and can interrupt something else I'm listening to at the time.

Please give me a way to mute specific apps so that the apps that I want to listen to don't get swamped.

3: The Settings app

Apple keeps shoving more and more into this app, to the point where is has become the Windows Control Panel of iOS. It began life as a sleek, streamlined repository for important settings, but over time has become a hideously bloated mess that seems to be getting worse with every major iOS release.

Apple's decision to add a search box to the app was essentially a signal from the developers that they were waving the white flag and had given up on trying to restore order and make it usable once again.

4: Get rid of the ads in the App Store app

If I search for the Facebook app, why is the top result TikTok? The answer is that TikTok paid for this top spot.

I detest this. It's user-unfriendly, bordering on deceptive, and it's a practice that I'm surprised that Apple condones. The top result should be what the user looked for, not what Apple got paid to show.

It's time to end this practice.

5: Get rid of app clutter

Apple doesn't make it easy to find out which apps you use and which you don't, and as a result, iOS becomes stuffed with a lot of legacy apps.

I'd like to see Apple highlight two different subset of the apps I have installed:

Apps that the developer hasn't updated in over a year

Apps that I haven't used in 3/6/12 months

Being able to highlight these would make decluttering a lot easier.

What are your biggest iOS (or Android) annoyances? Let me know.

This Week in Apps: Apple bans party app, China loses 39K iOS games, TikTok births a ‘Ratatousical’ - TechCrunch

ios.indah.link

Welcome back to This Week in Apps, the weekly TechCrunch series that recaps the latest in mobile OS news, mobile applications and the overall app economy.

The app industry is as hot as ever, with a record 204 billion total downloads and $120 billion in global consumer spend in 2019. Not including Chinese third-party app stores, iOS and Android users in 2020 downloaded 130 billion apps and spent a record $112 billion. In 2019, people spent three hours and 40 minutes per day using apps, rivaling TV.

Due to COVID-19, time spent in apps jumped 25% year-over-year on Android. Apps aren’t just a way to pass idle hours — they’re also a big business. In 2019, mobile-first companies had a combined $544 billion valuation, 6.5x higher than those without a mobile focus.

This week (after a week off for the holidays), we’re taking a look at holiday app store spending, how the Chinese gaming licensing rules have impacted the App Store, Apple’s move to ban a party app that could have helped spread COVID, and the collaborative musical created by TikTok users, among other things.

Christmas Day app spending grows 35% year-over-year

Global app spending didn’t seem to be impacted by the pandemic in 2020, according to data from Sensor Tower. The firm reports that consumers spent $407.6 million in apps from the iOS App Store and Google Play on Christmas Day, 34.5% from the $303 million spent in 2019. The majority of the spending was on mobile games, up 27% year-over-year to $295.6 million. Tencent’s Honor of Kings led the games category, while TikTok led non-game apps with $4.7 million in spending on Christmas Day.

As in prior years, Apple accounted for the majority of the spending, or 68.4% ($278.6M) vs Google Play’s $129M. The spending was led by the U.S., who accounted for ~$130 million of the total

Apple takes a stand on pandemic parties

Apple’s App Store Review guidelines don’t specifically detail how the company will handle apps that could contribute to the spread of COVID-19, but Apple found a way to draw the line when it came to a social app that encouraged unsafe gatherings. This past week, Apple banned the app Vybe Together, which had allowed people to locate “secret” indoor house parties in their area, sometimes including those held in violation of state guidelines.

NYT reporter Taylor Lorenz first called attention to the problem with a tweet. The app had been posting to TikTok to gain attention, but its account has since been removed. Following its removal, the company defended itself by saying that it was only meant for small get-togethers and the founder lamented being “canceled by the liberal media.”

There’s no good defense, really, for the unnecessary and ill-timed promotion of an app that encouraged people from different households to gather, which spreads COVID. And what the founder seemed to not understand, by nature of his recent tweets and statements on the app’s website, is that many cities and states also already prohibit small private gatherings of varying degrees, including those he believes are fine, like small parties in folks’ “own apartments with people in your area.”

The U.S. is coping with 346,000 COVID deaths, and in New York, where the app was promoting NYE parties, 74% of all COVID-19 cases from Sept.-Nov. 2020 have been linked to private gatherings.

The media may have reported on what the app was doing, but ultimately the decision to “cancel” it was Apple’s. And it was the correct one.

Apple removes 39K games from its China App Store.

Apple on Thursday, Dec. 31, 2020 removed 39,000+ games from China App Store. This was the biggest removal of games in a single day, Reuters reported, citing data from Qimai.

iOS games have long been required to obtain a Chinese gaming license in order to operate in the country, but Apple skirted this rule for years by hosting unlicensed titles even as Android app stores complied. Apple began to enforce the rule in 2020 and gave publishers a Dec. 31, 2020 deadline to obtain the license — a process that can be tedious and time-consuming.

Clearly, a large number of publishers were not able to meet the deadline. Included in the new sweep were Ubisoft’s Assassin’s Creed Identity and NBA 2K20. Qimai says only only 74 of the top 1,500 paid games remained following the removals. To date, Apple purged more than 46,000 titles from the China App Store, the report said.

TikTok births a “Ratatousical”

The TikTok musical version of Ratatouille has become a real thing. The pandemic forced a lot of creative types out of work in 2020, leading them to find new ways to express themselves online. On TikTok, this collective pent-up energy turned into a large-scale collaborative event: a musical version of Disney’s Ratatouille. (Or Ratatousical, as it was nicknamed.) TikTokers composed music, wrote lyrics and dialogue, choreographed dances, designed costumes, sets and more, as they worked together through the app.

Surprisingly, Disney is allowing a charity version of this collaboration to become a real event without any interference or lawsuits. The Ratatouille musical live-streamed on Jan. 1 at 7 p.m. Eastern, and will be available via video-on-demand through Jan. 4, for a minimum $5 donation to The Actors Fund.

The musical itself was lighthearted fun for a younger, Gen Z crowd. It also cleverly incorporated actual TikTok videos that featured the app’s well-known visual effects — like cloning yourself or the flashing colored lights typically associated with TikTok’s “you think you can hurt me” meme, for example. That made it more accessible and familiar to kids who had spent the past year being entertained via the internet.

TikTok users, of course, aren’t the only ones designing, creating and editing productions through remote and collaborative processes in 2020 — Hollywood itself has had to reorient itself for remote work at a much larger scale. TikTok was simply the platform of choice for theater kids looking for something to do.

It will be interesting to see if the TikTok-based collaborative process that birthed this musical ultimately becomes a one-off event that arose from the pandemic’s impacts — including the ability for many creative people to devote time and energy on side projects, for example, due to shuttered productions and stay-at-home orders. Or perhaps in-app collaborations have a real future? Time will tell.

TikTok has already proven it can drive the music charts, fashion trends, and app downloads, so it can probably generate an audience for this production, as well. But the cynic may wonder if such an event would have been as popular and buzzworthy had it been some entirely original production, rather than one based on already popular and beloved Disney IP.  But you may as well watch — it’s not like you have any other plans these days.

Platforms

Gaming

  • Samsung teams up with Epic Games on Apple battle over Fortnite. Samsung and Epic Games worked together on the “Free Fortnite” marketing campaign, which recently involving sending packages to influencers that contained a Free Fortnite bomber jacket and Samsung Galaxy Tab S7. Fortnite was the Samsung Galaxy Store game of the year in 2020, and the store also distributes the Epic Games app which distributes the Fortnite updates. This is an odd move as Epic alleges the app stores leverage their power to engage in monopolistic practices, but this makes it clear that Samsung is offering them distribution. Apple has the right to set its own pricing for its services (and it recently lowered commissions for small businesses, too). But even if Epic Games is not the knight in shining armor one would hope for, its lawsuit could help set precedent. And regulators may still decide one day that Apple can’t dictate rules about how businesses operate outside its app store — meaning, they should have the right to collect their own payments, for example.

Augmented Reality

  • The New York Times gets into AR gaming. The media company has experimented with augmented reality as a way to augment storytelling both in its app and through other efforts on social media. But it has now taken AR into the world of gaming with an AR-enabled crossword puzzle where you swipe to rotate broken pieces floating above the puzzle to find clues.

Social & Photos

  • Telegram begins to make money. The messaging app, now nearing 500 million users, will introduce an ad platform for its public one-to-many channels that is “user-friendly” and “respects privacy.” The company says it needs to generate revenue to cover the costs of server and traffic. Telegram earlier abandoned a blockchain token project due to regulatory issues.
  • Mr. Beast announces the second annual “Finger on the App” challenge on Feb. 19. The game doles out $100,000 to whoever can keep their finger on their smartphone the longest, via an app designed for this purpose. Last year, it was a four-way tie after 70 hours, and the prize money was divided. The new app introduces in-app challenges to dissuade cheating. YouTuber Mr. Beast rose to fame for his philanthropic-based viral videos and stunts. He has made sizable donations to people in need and those impacted by the pandemic. But this year, the otherwise silly game has a darker tone as it involves competitors who will likely be in more desperate situations.
  • Bumble uproar over indoor bikini and bra photos. The dating app found itself in the middle of a small controversy this week when a woman who wanted to pose in her bra had her photos taken down. The company said its existing policy prohibits things like shirtless bathroom mirror selfies and indoor photos of people wearing swimsuits and underwear. Bumble’s policies were crafted in response to user data and feedback, but may also help to prevent adult sites from spamming with fake profiles. However, there’s still something weird about an app that markets itself as female-friendly telling a woman to go put some clothes on.
  • ByteDance filings reveal TikTok U.K. business recorded a $119.5 million loss over 2019. The losses were driven by advertising and marketing expenses, indicating the app is still very much in a growth mode.
  • TikTok launches its first personalized annual recap feature. The company “year on TikTok” in-app experience joins other personalized wrap-ups like the Top Nine for Instagram or Spotify’s Wrapped. It also introduces a floating, tappable button to connect users to the experience. This could pave way for other sorts of mini-applications in the future.
  • Clubhouse power users invited to special club. A select group of creators inside the already invite-only audio conversations app have now been given exclusive access to tools and private meetings with Clubhouse leadership and influencers. In one meeting, the creators discussed monetization strategies. The app grew to popularity amid the pandemic as people have been prevented from typical forms of networking, but it’s also struggled with moderation as conversations go off the rails. Today, Clubhouse also hosts many adult topics, as well, which would give the app a 17+ rating if it were actually submitted to the App Store instead of being in a private beta.

Streaming

  • HBO Max’s mobile app set a single-day download record following the release of “Wonder Woman 1984.” During the release weekend (Fri.-Sun.) the app saw 554K downloads, including 244K downloads on Sunday alone, reported Apptopia. The firm estimates the app now has just under 12M mobile users.

Waterscope

The popular app maker Iconfactory released a new app, Waterscope, that is a weather app more specifically designed to provide users with information on water conditions. Creator Craig Hockenberry explains the app is something he largely built for himself, an ocean swimmer often in need of information about the tides, wave heights, water temperature, wind speed, air temperature, forecasts and more. The app could be useful to those who live around the water, whether they’re swimming, fishing, boating or anything else. iOS only.

Run Boggo Run

This endless runner is BuzzFeed’s first mobile game, which makes it worth noting if not exactly recommending. The mental health-themed game, inspired by BuzzFeed’s animated series The Land of Boggs, was created by BuzzFeed Animation Studios. In the game, characters try to avoid things like stress monsters and gremlins, which is a humorous take on the anxieties of 2020. However, early user reviews indicate the game’s controls are too difficult and complain the game is too hard to be fun. How stressful! $0.99 on iOS and Android.

Enso

A new meditation game Enso promises to help users relax, meditate or fall asleep faster using gameplay that involves soothing visuals and sounds, composed by A.I. The app consists of 5-minute journeys where users concentrate on a task while guiding their movements and breath to achieve their goals. iOS and Android.

Portal

Image Credits: Portal

Not Facebook’s Portal! This sleep and relaxation-focused app, also called Portal, has been updated with Apple’s new privacy measures in mind. The company announced in December it will not collect user data from its app, and will now no longer use any in-app analytics tracking. The app also never required a login or collected personal information, and didn’t include third-party ads and ad trackers.

That’s resulted in an App Store rare find:

How refreshing.

The Portal app is a free download and offers a $35 per year membership for those who want access to the full content library.

Best iOS Apps To Get 2021 Off To A Great Start | Screen Rant - Screen Rant

ios.indah.link

With the new year upon us, there is an opportunity for Apple iPhone owners to get off to a fresh start and build good habits by installing some useful apps. The top focus in 2021 should be health and, thankfully, knowing what to do and staying on track isn’t as hard to manage as it once was. Learning new skills is also a good way to begin the year. With an iPhone and a few apps, it's easier than ever to begin a new year with a positive focus.

January often comes with beginning a new diet and a workout routine, but studies have shown that cutting calories and exercising is not necessarily sustainable. Most people have personal experience with that. Instead of a sudden change, the human body is better suited to sustained improvements and it actually resists sudden weight loss and complains about rapid increases in exercise. As the old saying goes, slow and steady wins the race. To create a sustainable pattern, a coach is quite helpful and an iOS app can serve that purpose pretty well.

An incredibly well-researched approach to improving diet is presented by a free iOS app called Dr. Greger’s Daily Dozen. Available in English and Spanish, the Daily Dozen describes basic categories of food that should be eaten every day in order to get proper nutrition. The app is updated every few months with new information and the latest version includes 21 tips specifically to help with weight loss, including time-restricted eating and front-loading calories. Units can be set to metric or imperial and keeping records is as easy as checking boxes throughout the day with meals. Charts of the day, month, and year are available, showing improvement. It’s a top-rated iPhone nutrition app that is completely free with no subscription required.

Exercise, Meditation & Learning Apps

2021 Yoga & Drawing iOS iPhone Apps

Exercise, flexibility, and meditation are all very important for health and fitness. A clear mind and a strong body that can bend and stretch without strain make everything in life easier. Yoga takes care of all three with a daily practice that can be done indoors, so it isn’t dependent on the weather and requires no equipment. Yoga Down Dog is a free download with a one month trial followed by a variety of subscription options. What makes this app unique is that each practice is highly customizable. Style of yoga, length of the practice, level of experience, body area to focus upon, instructor’s voice, with music, ambient sound, or silence able to be chosen. Being able to choose exactly the practice desired may be why this iOS app has such a high rating.

advertising

How to Draw - Learn Drawing is a long name for an app, but a very descriptive one. The app is free with minimal ads that can be removed with the ‘Pro’ version for $4. A large selection of drawing guides give step by step instruction and allows on-screen drawing with guides. There isn’t a built-in save feature, but a screenshot can capture the drawing for sharing. At the end of the drawing, the app fills in the original to give an idea of how the user drawing compares. The user can also use a thin sheet of paper placed over the iPhone to trace with a pencil or pen. Learning to draw is a fun, creative outlet and this app helps build muscle-memory to improve drawing skills.

advertising

With the help of a few apps, 2021 can begin with health, fitness, and learning a new skill. All can be done from the warmth, comfort, and safety of home and all three of the suggested apps are free, so there is no reason not to give them a try. iPhone owners can use technology to build some sustainable, good habits to make the new year even better.

WhatsApp stops working on these Android, iOS phones from today: Check list here - Mint

ios.indah.link

WhatsApp will stop working on a number of Android and iOS smartphones from today, according to its FAQ section as the company will withdraw support for older versions of the OS from 1 January, 2021.

This comes in the backdrop of Facebook-messaging app stating earlier that it has always maintained that "For the best experience, we recommend you use the latest software version of Android or iOS and all other compatible software."

According to the information on WhatsApp FAQ section, WhatsApp will only be compatible with phones running Android 4.0.3 operating system or newer as well as iPhones running on iOS 9 and newer.

For Android phones, models including HTC Desire, LG Optimus Black, Motorola Droid Razr or even the Samsung Galaxy S2 will no longer be able to have WhatsApp.

For iPhones, iPhone 4 and earlier models will not support WhatsApp soon. Models 4S, 5, 5S, 5C, 6 and 6S will need to update their operating system to iOS 9 or later to continue using WhatsApp.

In case of the 6S, 6S Plus and the first generation iPhone SE, they are the last to support the latest version of the newly released iOS 14.

Apart from this, the Facebook-owned instant messaging platform will keep the app running for select phones with KaiOS 2.5.1 OS or newer, including JioPhone and JioPhone 2, it said.

Furthermore, WhatsApp also said that there's no option to transfer your chat history between platforms. However, it provides the option to export your chat history as an email attachment.

How to know your current OS version:

In order to find out your current operating system for phone, iPhone users can go to Settings > General > About, to find out the iOS version.

For Android users, you can go to Settings and then on About Phone (which is probably at the end of the section) to see which Android version your smartphone is running on.

Every year-end, WhatsApp ends support for older iOS and Android smartphones. In 2020 beginning, WhatsApp stopped working for Android phones running on Android 2.3.7 operating system and lower as well as iPhones running on iOS 8 and lower.

It also stressed on the fact that these older versions of Android and iOS operating systems "can no longer create new accounts, nor re-verify existing accounts after February 1, 2020."
