Booyah is an application that has beaten WhatsApp to the punch on its own feature. It brings the ability to conduct video calls between your WhatsApp contacts before any other app has on Android.
To use the video conferencing feature, the individual or group of contacts need to have Booyah installed on their devices. The interesting thing about this app is that only WhatsApp contacts can receive and accept invitations for video calls, differentiating Booyah from other video conferencing apps on Android.
During our tests, we noticed that the Booyah fared better in calls limited to two people; group chats fell victim to poor audio quality at times. In both cases, the image quality was about average, comparable to Skype.
Another point worth highlighting is the way calls are made. Instead of the application using a traditional direct connection, Booyah sends users a link inviting them to join the video call.
So the only notification that is sent to the invited users is a message containing a link to the video call, which will show up as a WhatsApp message notification. If a user doesn't have Booyah installed, the message will be replaced with a link to download the app through the Google Play Store.
Download Booyah for Android
Booyah is now available for Android and can be downloaded from the Google Play Store using the button below:
The application began its life on iOS, but has now made the move over to Android. Hopefully the developers can correct the problems with audio quality and optimize the way Booyah invites users in future versions of the app. But, for those who don't want to wait for the official WhatsApp video call update, Booyah offers a solid alternative.
Best travel apps for Android: 7 essential apps for any traveler....
Best for air travel: Skyscanner
If you want to go a long distance, flying is the best way to go. Skyscanner is the best app for flights. You can look at the dates of the flights directly from your smartphone. You can choose your destination and find the lowest cost airline and book the flights with no fees.
If you are taking a trip to Europe, taking the train is a great way to get around. You can see a lot of the continent on the rails and the prices for tickets are reasonable. Voyages SNCF provides you with quick information on prices, dates and times for trains in many countries in Europe.
You are aware that the cost (and comfort) of public transportation might be inadequate, but fortunately there are a few alternatives. Car pooling is expanding and there are many apps that facilitate this but BlaBlaCar is the best one out there. You can jump in with someone else driving to the destination you want to go to at a fee to the car owner.
Of course, you can travel with your own car, this allows you to carry more things than taking a plane, train or someone else's automobile. The downside is that the success of the trip depends partly on your navigation skills. If you know the road well, it will not be a problem but if you are traveling to Santa Fe for the first time, you could have some navigational issues. Fortunately, there are many GPS applications to help you to your destinations. Waze is one of the most popular navigational apps on Android.
So you have solved the problem of transportation, and you have your dates set. Now there's just the question of accommodation: where will you be staying? Again, Android can help. Of course you could find a hotel via Google Maps or, if you are in a bigger city, book a hotel directly. Another option is to go through Airbnb. If you're unlucky, you could have some surprises but overall it is a good system.
Best for tracking the weather: The Weather Channel
So you've arrived successfully at your destination and are settled in adequate accommodations. Starting tomorrow, the vacation can begin. It's better to think about the weather before you plan any activity because the weather can change quickly. Unless you have tampered with your phone, you should have a weather app pre-installed on your Android device. Of course, you can install another application if your pre-installed weather app does not suit you. The Weather Channel app is one of the most popular.
If you go somewhere, there's a good chance you know the standard chain restaurants. But what if you want to venture outside of the norm and try some local cuisine, how do you avoid having a bad experience? Luckily, there are apps out there that can tell you what other travelers thought about particular restaurants. Yelp gives you ratings on what how popular restaurant is, the type of people who went there and what they thought of the establishment. Of course, what's true for some might not be true for others, but it allows you to get an idea.
March 8, 2016: WhatsApp has given its Settings menu a shakeup in this update. Not only has it been changed aesthetically, but there are also some small intuitive changes, too. For example, Account has been moved to the top of the list and Data Usage has received its own top-level option. The Payment info option has now, given the removal of a subscription fee, been dropped entirely from the menu. Also, on the Profilepage, your picture will now appear in a circle, where formally it was a square.
WhatsApp adds link copying, document sharing and granular chat clearing options
March 2, 2016: Throughout a spate of minor updates, WhatsApp has seen several new features added.
Firstly, there is now the option to long press on a link to copy it. Previously, this was a nuisance, as you had to copy the entire message within which the link was contained and then paste that and edit it down to the link. Now a simply long press lets you copy just the URL, as you would normally do in every other app ever.
It's now been made extremely easy to share documents (.pdfs) in a conversation. Just press the paperclip then Document and choose the file you wish to share.
On the media page for a conversation, a new tab has also been added that contains a history of all the documents that have been shared in a conversation or group chat.
The final notable addition is granular control over how much of a conversation you delete. Instead of just clearing out a chat entirely, you can now choose whether to delete everything or just messages older than 30 days, or messages older than six months.
WhatsApp finalizes update with new emoji, Google Drive backups and more
February 17, 2016: Although almost of all of these features have been seen at some time or another on a huge number of devices, it seems WhatsApp has now finalized the addition of over 100 new emoji (as detailed below), Google Drive chat log backups (as also detailed below), Marshmallow permissions (notably, that WhatsApp will now ask when it wants to use your microphone, rather than having permission to use it at all times), and support for Kazakh, Tagalog, Uzbek, Marathi and Malayalam languages.
The version number for this update is 2.12.453.
WhatsApp drops subscription fee
January 18, 2016: WhatsApp announced, via itsblog, that it is starting to remove fees from all versions of the app and will no longer be charging any money for use of the service. The change may take a few weeks to come into effect for some users, and if you are charged in the meantime, there is nothing for it but to pay.
In reply to theoretical questions regarding the insertion of third-party ads to make up for the loss of income, WhatsApp says it doesn't plan to introduce such a measure. Instead, the company has plans to allow companies to pay to use the service to contact users directly, if users consent to being contacted. WhatsApp gives the example of being able to contact an airline regarding a delayed flight.
WhatsApp adds slew of new emoji
December 6, 2015: Version 2.12.374 saw the addition of a host of new emojis. To accommodate the influx, WhatsApp also added several new category tabs: a bulb, flag, football and beverage. Among the new emojis are the fabled unicorn, the loathsome spider and the celebratory champagne bottle.
Take advantage of these new modes of expression by waiting patiently for the update to automatically arrive via the Google Play Store, or download it directly from APKMirror or WhatsApp.
WhatsApp lets you star messages to view later
November 3, 2015: Version 2.12.338 beta adds the ability to 'star' certain messages, so you can easily locate and read them at a later point. This is particularly useful, and arguably long overdue, given how long and confusing WhatsApp conversations can get.
To use the feature, you will need to download theWhatsApp beta APK and load it onto your phone. Then you can simply long-press on any message and press the star icon that appears. All your starred messages are then collated in their own dedicated starred messages section.
The new beta version also includes support for document files, such as PDFs, which you can also specifically search for now, too.
Download the latest version of WhatsApp from theofficial website.
WhatsApp rich previews for URLs and extra 'clear chat' options
October 20, 2015: Version 2.12.323 brings URL previews, although they are limited to a small image and a snippet of text, and currently only visible to the sender. They aslo don't work on image links – just regular URLs – so there's still plenty for WhatsApp to iron out. This feature is currently in the beta version, so we're sure there'll be many more small updates in the next few weeks, downloadable from the WhatsApp webpage or APK Mirror.
The 'clear chat' option in any chat window now has an expanded set of options. Instead of just clearing the entire chat, you can now choose to delete all messages, messages older than 30 days, or messages older than six months.
WhatsApp now allows Google Drive backups
October 8, 2015: Version 2.12.306 of WhatsApp includes the ability to back up your WhatsApp chat history, voice messages, photos, and videos to Google Drive. It had been possible to make local backups for a while, but that didn't help if your phone was lost, stolen or broken. Now, you can back up everything up to the cloud, in safely encrypted form, and easily restore it all at any time. This feature is expected to take a few months to roll out to all WhatsApp users, but keep an eye on the updates and you should receive a prompt to set up the Google Drive backup once it's ready.
Mark WhatsApp messages as read/unread
August 25, 2015: You also have the option to mark a conversation as read, without even going into it. Simply long press the chat on the main screen and a pop up menu will appear. right down the bottom you'll see the option for 'Mark as Read'. You can do this in reverse too and long press to 'Mark as Unread' so you don't forget to return to a message later.
July 29, 2015: This isn't strictly an update to the WhatsApp app, but it could affect how you interact with it. You can now use a Google Now voice command to send a WhatsApp message to one of your contacts, just say "Ok Google, send a WhatsApp message to [contact name]." You will then be prompted to dictate the message you want to send.
Alternatively, you can record it all in one statement, such as "Ok, Google, send WhatsApp message to Malcolm, I'm still in love with you," or something else.
If you're new to Google Now voice commands, hit the link to see a list of what else can be achieved with Google's handy personal assistant.
July 22, 2015: The low data usage option can be found in the Chats and Calls menu within WhatsApps settings. It affects how much mobile data is consumed during WhatsApp calls. This could be an excellent addition for those who often make calls using mobile data, although we don't yet know to what extent it reduces the data consumed.
Add custom notifications to WhatsApp contacts
July 22, 2015: Feel free to add custom notifications to your contacts now too. Simply open a contact's profile page and you'll see you've also got a setting for Custom Notifications. Tap it and check the box to activate the options, then choose custom notification sounds, notification colors, popup actions and more.
July 22, 2015: The second new feature is housed in the notifications settings for individual contacts. You can now customize the notification you receive for each contact, its sound or LED color, for example, as well as temporarily muting notifications from them. You can mute group chats, too, by clicking on the three-dot option button at the top right and selecting mute.
This means that your phone won’t make a sound or vibrate, but you can still see their notifications, should you choose to.
To download the latest version of WhatsApp, you can go through the Play Store, you can visit theWhatsApp update download page, or download the WhatsApp update APK through APK Mirror, where the latest version is always uploaded.
