Do you want your photos to turn into artworks based on the styles of famous artists - Van Gogh, Picasso, Levitan? If yes, try Prisma, the latest photo-enhancing app.

It is an app developed in Russia that turns prosaic smartphone shots into an artwork. This is a unique combination of neural networks and artificial intelligence that helps you turn memorable moments into timeless art, according to Prisma-AI website.


You can turn your boring selfies and pictures into artworks with the help of Prisma. In fact, Bollywood actress Alia Bhatt has already tried it and posted her picture on Instagram yesterday after making it art-sy with Prisma.

The app is free. So, you too can give it a try by converting your picture into an art work in three easy steps. You first need to select a picture, pick a style such as gothic or robot and enjoy the result.


Here are a few things to consider when you use this new app.

1. Not available on Android yet: This app is only available on iOS right now. An Android version of Prisma will come soon, according to Prisma.AI's Facebook page.

2. May encounter a few server-down errors: According to its Facebook page, Prisma has "became the most downloaded app in 10 countries within nine days". Due to increased load on its server, you might face a few server-down errors.

3. Some camera functions are missing: You'll notice that some functions such as HDR or self-timer features are missing in Prisma.

4. Free of watermark: Go on the app's settings page, enable watermarks and then get it deactivated. Your instant artwork will bear no mark or branding.

5. Prisma has around 20 art filters: The app contains around 20 art filters at this point, with some of the art/graphical starting points including the Scream, Baroque, DC comic graphic as well as abstract artworks. More filters will be added soon.

WhatsApp is sending out a new feature that lets you send files directly through the popular messaging service.

Some have spotted a server-side switch that enables you to share PDFs (the only supported file type for now) to another contact.


WhatsApp now lets you send a PDF to one of your contacts.


When you touch the paperclip button you’ll see an option to send a document, along with buttons for Camera, Gallery, Audio, Location, and Contact.

However, if the recipient doesn’t have the update, you won’t be able to send anything (see below).

If your contact doesn’t have the update you won’t be able to use the file-sharing feature.

This is one of those staggered rollouts, so you may just need some patience if it hasn’t hit you yet. You can always join the Play Store beta program or grab the latest beta file from APK Mirror in hopes of speeding things along.

The story behind the story: Messaging is growing beyond just the exchange of text and pictures. Facebook’s Messenger, for example, has grandiose plans to turn the service into a shopping platform. Give how much time people spend messaging, expect for companies to find more ways to keep you in the conversation.

Facebook is reported to have sabotaged its Android app on purpose in a bid to test user patience. Facebook deliberately crashed its Android app for weeks at a time in a bid to test its users' dedication to the social network, it has been reported.
 
The company intentionally crashed the app for some users for several weeks to see if they would still visit Facebook's mobile site or abandon the platform altogether, according to The Information. Rather than give up on their news feed, users continued to visit the site, it reported.
The testing is alleged to be part of a contingency plan should Facebook's app run into difficulties with the Google Play Store. Facebook has been contacted for comment.
It is not the first time Facebook has monitored its users emotional responses. The company was roundly criticised for subjecting 600,000 users to psychological testing without their prior knowledge or consent in June 2014. It altered the tone of the users' news feed to highlight either positive or negative posts from their friends on their news feed and monitored their responses.
A spokesman for the network said at the time: We do research to improve our services and to make the content people see on Facebook as relevant and engaging as possible.
The social network recently introduced a filter to prevent inadvertently reminding you of a photo or friendship you'd rather forget through its On This Day feature.
It has also created a feature to warn users if it suspects they are being spied on by government agents such as the NSA or GCHQ.
While Facebook doesn't specify exactly how it identifies such perpetrators, chief security officer Alex Stamos said: To protect the integrity of our methods and processes, we often won't be able to explain how we attribute certain attacks to suspected attackers. We plan to use this warning only in situations where the evidence strongly supports our conclusion.
