Snapchat CEO's Alleged 'Poor India' Comment: How Snapdeal Got Caught in the Backlash

HIGHLIGHTS

~Snapchat CEO allegedly called India a poor country

~Users are unhappy about the remarks and uninstalling Snapchat

~Some, it seems, are confused between Snapchat and Snapdeal

Snapchat has been in the news since Saturday due to alleged remarks by CEO Evan Spiegel. A report in Variety shares the account of ex-Snapchat employee Anthony Pompliano who says that back in 2015 he asked Spiegel about Snapchat's relative lack of growth overseas. “This app [Snapchat] is only for rich people,” Spiegel said, according to Pompliano. “I don’t want to expand into poor countries like India and Spain.”

Reaction to Snapchat CEO's alleged 'Poor India' comment

As you would expect, Indians on social media have been up in arms since Snapchat CEO's alleged comments came to light. Users on Twitter and Facebook are reacting angrily against Snapchat and its CEO, and leaving negative reviews, while many are also uninstalling the Snapchat app. In fact, at the time of filing this report, Snapchat has an average of 1-star rating in Apple's App Store in India.

Now, it may not be your preferred method of 'protest', but all this is understandable, and something we've seen before, most notably when users left 1-star reviews for Snapdeal when they were unhappy with remarks made by Snapdeal brand ambassador Aamir Khan. Interestingly, Snapdeal has found itself at the receiving end of more 1-star reviews this week thanks to Snapchat CEO Evan Spiegel's remarks, possibly because some people can't seem to differentiate between Snapchat and Snapdeal.

Snapdeal caught in backlash against Snapchat CEO

Sample some of these reviews for the Snapdeal app in Google Play, which have been left since Snapchat CEO's alleged remarks came to light. Some of these have been edited to remove profanity.

"Ceo u told that india is a poor country... I bought countless products from snapdeal.. Dont say like that... Now m gonna delet my account from SD ... Hate u and hate your apps...," said one user on Google Play while leaving the Snapdeal app a 1-star review. "I think Evan Thomas Spiegel is having very poor intelligence. Pathetic service n attitude," said another while doing the same.

"How dare you call Indians as poor. Tell your angrez ceo to pack his bags.. I am uninstalling​ your app.. I will never put any orders.. Flipkart is better than you. They have better delivery system.. And they don't call their customers poor," said another reviewer of the Snapdeal Android app, while giving a 1-star rating.

Some others, all left while giving the Snapdeal app 1-star rating:

Because of the statement about india I am gonna un install snapdeal too!
Ceo said india is poor booooo booooo
We could go on and on, but we are sure you get the idea.

Thankfully, people seem to have realised that many are confused between Snapdeal and Snapchat and giving the former 1-star reviews, so they are leaving the Snapdeal app 5-star reviews in an attempt to, what they say, is 'balance' things out. Here are a few:

Snapdeal and snapchat both are different apps. Please stop the stupid propoganda of giving 1 star. Giving 5 stars to nullify 1 star rating.

Just for balancing. This is snapDEAL not snapCHat. Do not confuse.

Just for balancing your hardluck guys.. on snapchat issue

Balancing for people who misunderstood this as snapchat😂😂😂

Guys stop giving it 1 🌟, 😂 its snapdeal not Snapchat

10 useful Android Tips And Tricks You Should Know.

10 Useful Android Tips And Tricks You Should Know

Whether you are new to Android and eager to try out every available option you see on the screen, or familiar with the system, including the annoyances that plague you on a daily basis, tips and tricks to get around a system is always helpful. We are here to help you with that.

In this post, we are featuring 10 useful Android tips and tricks that may improve your experience while using your Android device. Do note that the steps may vary a little from one Android phone to another due to the differences in the build and the OS version, but if you play around with it, the next step isn’t too far off.

Here we go:

1. Disable App Notifications

Bugged by annoying app notifications that just keep coming? If you don’t know already, these app notifications also drain your phone’s battery. If you want to turn them off, and you are on Jelly Bean 4.1 and above, here’s how:

On any of your unwanted notifications in your notification bar, long press on the notification for a message box to appear.
Tap on App Info > Untick Show Notifications > OK.

2. Disable Mobile Data

Whenever you don’t need to stay connected, disabling the Mobile Data can help keep your smartphone battery from draining too quickly. Turning off mobile data is as easy as:

Going to Settings > Data Usage.
Disable Mobile data by toggling the setting from ON to OFF.

3. Set Mobile Data Limit

Want to keep track of how far your usage is from your monthly mobile data limit? If you have ICS and above, there is a feature which lets you keep track of how much of the quota you have left.

Head over to Settings > Data Usage.
Set your data limit by dragging the orange line to reflect your monthly quota.
Set your data usage cycle based on when your "month" starts and ends, and you’re done.
You will be alerted once you hit the limit you have set. Note that the tracked data usage of your phone may vary slightly than your carrier’s tracking.

4. Add Multiple Google Accounts

You need a Google account to use an Android phone but did you know you can choose to run more than one Google account on your Android device. This is convenient if you use more than one account for several of your Google services. To add multiple Google accounts:

Go to Settings > Add account.
Select Google and setup your New or Existing Google account.
Once added, choose what you want to sync with the account.
Repeat all the steps above if you want to add more accounts.

5. Disable automatic App Updates

Prefer to read through app permissions and manually pick which app updates to adopt? You can, but first you need to disable your automatic app updates. Here are the steps:

Open Play Store and head over to Settings.
Tap on Auto-update apps.
Choose Do not auto-update apps.
If you want to enable the auto updates, follow the same path and choose Auto-update apps at any time or via Wi-Fi (available for certain Android devices only).

To update your apps manually, just open Play Store, and on the main page swipe in from the left and tap on My apps. You can tap on apps with pending updates and update them manually, or if you like to update them all at once, just tap on Update All.

6. How To Check For android System updates

For Android users that are using stock ROM, you may want to look for new updates to your system. To check for updates:

Go to Settings > About phone/tablet.
Tap on System updates.
Tap Check now to look for system updates.

If you have already set some default apps for particular tasks (e.g. using Chrome for opening web links) but wish to change this:

Go to Settings > Apps.
Swipe right and look for the All tab.
Select the app you want to remove as defaul

With Samsung Galaxy S5 You Can Measures Your Heart Rate

Do You Know? With Samsung Galaxy S5 You Can Measures Your Heart Rate

One of the marquee features of Samsung’s new Galaxy S5 is its integrated heart rate monitor.
How To Measure Heart Rate? ->
Measuring Heart rate with the all new Samsung galaxy S5 is really simple and easy.
South Korean Company Samsung is not first to do it, The technology that it uses isn’t new, but it’s the first time we’ve seen it in a smartphone. It works by shining the phone’s LED light on your fingertip, letting the sensor detect the blood flow beneath the skin.
The sensor is part of an app called S Health, which first debuted in the Galaxy S4. Samsung has upgraded the app for the S5, placing a much greater emphasis on fitness.

Other Beast Features Of The Device –>
Galaxy S5, which sports a fingerprint scanner and water-resistant casing.
Bundle Of Apps –> 50% Storage On Galaxy S5 Is Taken Up By Samsung Apps On 16GB Base Model.
The 5S will have a dedicated camera button on the right side of the smartphone, but not a physical button. Although a user could just tap the device to take a picture, it wouldn’t work with certain modes, such as portrait mode and filming video.
Samsung places great emphasis on the device’s camera, which has an extremely fast auto-focus (up to 0.3 seconds)
