Seems like WhatsApp unsend feature is rolling out slowly to different models

Sad they skipped note 8. My friend on iPhone 6 Plus already gotten it.

Or is it just me?

Wow then it's probably not based on models but rolling out starting from the oldest members?

I started WhatsApp in 2012 while my friend on the iPhone 6 Plus started in 2009.

Found out the cause, chrome was causing my phone to lag very badly, lol. It was also draining my battery when I use fb and messenger way more. 8 hours from 100 to 38% when usually I should still have 50% at this time of day after work. Chrome ate about 13% while my heavily used apps only used 3%.

Force stop, clear cache and memory (12mb) seems to have solved the lagginess. Will monitor first.

Unless Chrome is important in your daily usage, if not, may be you can ditch it and disable it. Use Samsung Internet instead. It's fast, very smooth, got Adblock extension, and also battery friendly.

hmm okay, not really important, i'm just lazy to relogin every websites i go to, haha.

thanks. will try!

anyone knows if there are adblocks for youtube app?

My S Pen translate doesn't convert currency. Anyone figured out how it works? Apparently you use translate function then it'll convert price when you hover, but it only shows the translation for me.

Haven't tested other currencies, the one I checked was JPY.

Edit: just tried Australian dollar, it converts to GBP... any idea how to change to MYR?

Since when it happened? After the recent android update? If got free time, try to uninstall and reinstall the apps. Go to the Monitoring apps section and uncheck those apps. Also wipe the phone cache and restart. 80% of the software problems will be resolved automatically after doing these moves.

most likely not the latest software update

it was early this month when the new update rolled out right? this delay started like last week. clean cache and restart already.

gonna monitor awhile more. i just checked, so coincidentally both the apps i mentioned werent in unmonitored app list, added them both. if still delay probably wipe my phone sweat.gif

When you are watching YouTube, pull out the S pen, you can make a short gif of it.

glad to know i'm not the only one experiencing crashes on instagram.

only crashes for story. most of the time is trying to add stickers/note on story. sometimes watching story.
