BHIM app launched

Gearing up the move towards Digital India , Prime Minister Narendra Modi recently launched e-wallet app  BHIM(Bharat Interface for Money) ,  which is named after Dr B.R. Ambedkar according to the sources.
PM Narendra Modi mentioned that BHIM app is launched for making transactions more easy and reliable.
BHIM is Aadhaar  based mobile payment service through which various transactions can be done.
The app BHIM was launched at Digi Dhan Mela which was held in Delhi.
It is basically refurbished version of UPI (Unified Payments Interface) and USSD (Unstructured Supplementary Service Data)

This service can be used on a smartphone or a regular basic feature phone . At present it is available on Play Store for Android Devices , later it will be available on App Store also for iOS devices ( Can't say anything about Windows Phone 😋).

To use BHIM one needs to register their respective account with the app and generate UPI code for further transactions .

Through BHIM anyone can send money to anyone's mobile number which is linked their bank account . Payments can also be done through mobile number or QR code. For non-UPI bank IFSC code can be used for money transactions through UPI.

PM Narendra Modi further added that they are working over the BHIM app and in future transactions will be made using thumbprint only.

He also added in his addressing that there was a time when an illiterate was called "angootha chaap" , and now all transactions can be done only through your angootha (thumb) 👍.


In the end I would like to tell you something about the BHIM app interface . When you will be loading the app for the first time , a welcome screen will appear . Thereafter you need to to enter your mobile number registered with bank account and have to select the bank from the mentioned list. After that a screen will appear requesting to generate UPI code , which you can generate later also. Now you are ready for transactions.

How to Hard Reboot an iPhone or iPad

No one can easily doubt over the engineering efforts made by Apple. Despite of that there are some chances that your iPhone or iPad might stop working, by which I mean it stops responding to your touch. At that moment you need to reset your iPhone and considering the worst scenario no matter how long you hold the power button the power off option doesn’t show up. This condition may arise due to any software bug or unwanted behaviour of any app. In such cases there is  a straightforward method to resolve it , which involves forcing your device to reboot. This method is termed as reset or hard restart which is done by holding down the combination of 2 buttons simultaneously for 10 seconds or more. By doing so all running processes will be cleared and the device will be rebooted forcibly. Talking about iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus, the Home button is not a physical button anymore. So the button combination is bit different in these devices than their predecessor. ...

Sony Playstation 4  is nearing 60 million consoles sold and with Microsoft's XBox Scorpio Project out now, Ps4 is soon to become an inferior machine from a specs perspective. Logic would point to Sony having to respond in some fashion .So could PlayStation 5 be a retaliation to XBox's 4K consoles as soon as 2018? When will Ps5 be coming out? Marketing analyst Damian Thong and Michael Pachter have both individually predicted Sony to release Ps5 in 2018. Does 2018 seem too soon????? Yeah,it would if you just bought a Ps4 pro in 2016.
