Important Functions to deploy code on AWS SageMaker
By: Pranidhi Prabhat
Tags: Deployment, Sagemaker, Amazon Sagemaker, AWS, Endpoints

def input_fn(input_data, content_type):

# Read the raw input data as CSV.

if content_type == 'text/csv':

df = pd.read_csv(StringIO(input_data),header=None)

if len(df.columns) == len(feature_columns_names) + 1:

#This is for labelled example.

df.columns = feature_columns_names + [label_column]

elif len(df.columns) == len(feature_columns_names):

#This is an unlabelled example.

df.columns = feature_columns_names

return df

else:

raise ValueError("{} not supported by

script!".format(content_type))

The output method in the output_fn returns back in JSON format because by default the Inference Pipeline expects JSON between the containers, but can be modified to add other output formats. The idea is to set the ContentType in such a way that the response is read correctly. Here is the sample of the default output_fn. Putting it here to get a holistic view of all these functions :

def output_fn(prediction, accept):

if accept == "application/json":

instances = []

for row in prediction.tolist():

instances.append({"features": row})



json_output = {"instances": instances}



return worker.Response(json.dumps(json_output), mimetype=accept)

elif accept == 'text/csv':

return worker.Response(encoders.encode(prediction, accept), mimetype=accept)

else:

raise RuntimeException("{} accept type is not supported by this script.".format(accept))

Next is the model_fn that essentially takes the location of the serialized model and returns the deserialized model back to Amazon SageMaker. Note that this is the only method that does not have a default because the definition of the method will be closely linked to the serialization method implemented in training. While there are numerous methods to this activity, as I was using Scikit-learn for my text classification, I used the joblib library included with Scikit-learn.

def model_fn(model_dir):

"""Deserialize fitted model

"""

preprocessor = joblib.load(os.path.join(model_dir,

"model.joblib"))

return preprocessor

The predict_fn is used to call the model.It takes the input data, which was returned by the input_fn mentioned above, and the deserialized model from the model_fn to transform the source data. The default predict_fn uses predict_fn, and my example case required it as it is so I did not make any changes to this function. There are cases where instead of .predict(), we would require a .transform(). The predict_fn can then be changed in the following way :

def predict_fn(input_data, model):

features = model.transform(input_data)

return features

Essentially these functions need to be altered if there is a case to case requirement for changing the functionalities of these functions. It is very important to understand how these functions work in putting together the flow for deployment of the code.
Deployment Strategies
By: Bulent Gorkem
Tags: Deployment, Cloud

What we want: As Software DevOps Engineers, we want to have frequent, reliable, measurable deployment processes with easy rollback options.

Challenges: There are so many moving parts depending on each other. Need to replace parts whilst in keeping production operation intact. You need to keep old versions of components alive, along with the new version until no dependent components remain.

Blue-Green deployments

In software engineering, blue-green deployment is a method of installing changes by swapping alternating production and staging servers. Blue is the current prod environment, whereas Green is a newly deployed staging environment. When you are convinced staging green environment is working ok, you swap this with the blue production environment using load-balancers or reverse proxies.

Canary deployments

Alluding to the “canary in the coal mine” canary deployments is when software developers release a new version of software to just a subset of users or systems. By enabling the software within just part of the user base, developers can monitor any problems it creates without causing major disruption.

A/B deployment is also similar to Canary deployments. You have a baseline feature A, and then you deploy B feature to a certain percentage of customers.

A/B deployment is a marketing tool used to try out some new features and its effects on the user experience, whereas Canary testing is for risk mitigation. You want to minimize the risk of total service outage by testing the risky feature on a small set of the user base.

Feature Flags

A feature flag is a software development technique used to enable or disable functionality remotely without deploying code. New features can be deployed without making them visible to users. Feature flags help separate deployment from release, letting you manage the full lifecycle of a feature.

Feature flags give a software organisation the power to reduce risk, iterate quicker and gain more control of new features.

Popular vendors providing feature flags as a SaaS solution:

Deploying Ruby on Rails Backend on Heroku

Create a ruby on rails backend database

gem install rails

rails new <your_project_name> --api -T --database=postgresql

2. Go to heroku.com and create a free account.

3. In the upper right hand corner click on the new tab and select “Create a new app”

4. Give your app a name and select your region. Click the Create app

5. In Deployment Method — Select Heroku Git

6. Install the Heroku CLI

https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/heroku-cli

brew tap heroku/brew && brew install heroku

7. In your terminal

heroku login

8. Confirm your login

https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/git

9.1 Alternate. Create app using CLI inside the project folder. It will generate a random app name.

heroku create

9.2 Rename the app name

heroku apps:rename <newAppName>

9.3 If using the heroku create in CLI, skip step 10, heroku remote is automatically created.

10. If your project folder already had git init with Github, run to connect the project folder to heroku. New/update remote app name.

heroku git:remote -a <your_app_name>

else

git init

heroku git:remote -a <your_app_name>

To check if the project folder have a git linked, run

git remote -v //Display, if connected with Github and Heroku.

origin git@github.com filename.git(fetch)

origin git@github.com filename.git(push)

heroku https://git.heroku.com/proxy-server-aka.git (fetch)

heroku https://git.heroku.com/proxy-server-aka.git (push)

11. Run the following commends

git add .

git commit -am "first commit"

git push heroku main

12. Create and seed the database.

To create the database:

heroku run rake db:migrate

To seed the database:

heroku run rake db:seed

***Extra***

To drop the database:

heroku pg:reset DATABASE_URL --confirm NAME_OF_THE_APP

Combine migrate and seed into one step

heroku run rake db:setup

If needed

heroku restart

Clone heroku repo

heroku git:clone -a <your_app_name>

13. It now done. On your new heroku app URL, you will see something like this. Perfectly normal since this is a database API.
GitOps : The Next Big Thing for DevOps and Automation!

How GitOps Works?

GitOps Works based upon pull pipelines

Pull pipelines : Assume you have every separate part of the documentation, all of your YAML files, and every bit of necessary code required for Kubernetes included in a single Git repository. by help of a some automation tools, anyone can do a pull request, edit the code, and then issue a merge request to that Git repository.

Pull Based Pipeline

Once the merge request is complete, the automated GitOps operator detects something has changed, instead of using push-based we use here the pull-based approach means A pull pipeline involves a K8s Operator(Flux) and deploying new images from inside the cluster.

It detects any new images in the Git repository and pulls them into the cluster environment. This bypasses cluster credentials being exposed outside of the production environment.

Pull vs Push Pipeline

Push Pipelines : As today lots of CI/CD tools uses model of push-based for deployments. A push-based pipeline means that code starts with the CI system and may continue its path through a series of encoded scripts or uses ‘kubectl’ by hand to push any changes to the Kubernetes cluster.

Push Based Pipelines

The reason you don’t want to use your CI system as the deployment reason or do it manually on the command line is because of the potential to expose credentials outside of your cluster. while it is already possible to secure both CI/CD scripts and the CLI , this is generally not good practice and is why CI systems can be known as attack vectors for production.

Flex Widgets Lets You Create Personalized Widgets for Your iOS 14 Device

Apple’s iOS 14 has been a big hit amongst iOS users as they can finally customize their home screen with numerous live-widgets. As a result, we have seen many third-party developers make dedicated apps to create personalized widgets for iOS 14 with various customization options. Now, even though Flex Widgets falls in this category of apps, this widget-creator features customization options that no other widget-making apps in the market offer.

This 6.1 MB app recently came to the App Store. There are no ads, in-app purchases, or subscriptions like in many other widget-apps. However, Flex Widgets is a paid app, and it comes for a price of $1.99 (Rs. 179 in India).

Truly Customize Your iOS 14 Widgets

Now, for its price, Flex Widgets is a pretty cool widget-creation app that lets you create and edit your widgets the way you want. You can add various elements to small, medium, or large widget pallets like texts, emojis, shapes, images, and more.

Unlike in other widget-apps like Color Widgets or Widgetsmith, the widget editor in Flex Widgets lets you move around each of the elements inside a widget and place them anywhere. Moreover, there is no limit to adding elements to a widget.

This is the Most Popular iPhone 12 Model

Tags: iPhone, Tec, Iphone 12 Pro, News

#iPhone12

iPhone 12 consists of 4 models, namely iPhone 12 Mini, iPhone 12, iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max. So, which model is the most popular where the demand is indicated the most?

Analysis from JP Morgan states that the iPhone 12 Pro is currently the most in-demand model on the market, beating the iPhone 12 Pro Max. This is indicated by the long waiting time from the time the consumer orders the iPhone 12 Pro to get the item.

As quoted by Apple Insider, Tuesday (15/12/2020), Samik Chaterjee, as an analyst from JP Morgan, believes the iPhone 12 Pro will continue to be a model that is being hunted until the iPhone 13 comes out next year.

Prepare Rp. 1.1 Billion

In his analysis, the waiting time to get the iPhone 12 Pro Max is getting shorter, especially in China. While the waiting time for the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Mini has increased, but not as long as the iPhone 12 Pro.

In various marketing areas, JP Morgan said that the current delivery time is 4 days for the iPhone 12 Mini, 4 days for the iPhone 12 and 20 days for the iPhone 12 Pro Max from 23 days previously. As for the iPhone 12 Pro, it will take up to 28 days.

The iPhone 12 itself has already been ordered in Indonesia by Erajaya on December 12 and is getting great interest. A few minutes after the pre-order was opened on iBox, the stock for the iPhone 12 ran out.

However, Erajaya ensures that the stock of the iPhone 12 is safe. “Still, it’s safe, there’s no need to worry, the stock is safe,” said Hasan Aula, Deputy Director of Erajaya Group some time ago.

At first Erajaya only opened online pre-orders. But seeing such enthusiasm, they will open pre-orders via offline.

“Initially, the pre-order was online, we hope it can be served offline,” Hasan concluded regarding ordering the iPhone 12.

After mocking Apple, Xiaomi additionally omits charger from upcoming Mi 11 flagship Benjamin Dotse ·Dec 26, 2020

After overtly mocking Apple for omitting the requisite charger from the field of the brand new iPhone 12 line, Xiaomi’s CEO has confirmed that the corporate can even drop the charger from the upcoming Mi 11 smartphone.

Xiaomi CEO Lei Jun confirmed on the Chinese social media website Weibo that the electronics firm can be ditching the bundled energy brick within the Mi 11 citing environmental issues. Jun goes on to say that customers have already got a surplus of chargers and that the charger can be “canceled” for the Mi 11 gadget.

List of the official iOS keyboards’ heights (and how to calculate them)
By: Federica Benacquista
Tags: Swift, iPhone, iPad, iOS, Keyboard

Recently I have been working on a custom keyboard extension.

I wanted it to be of the same size of the original iOS keyboard. I noticed that almost all of the devices have different keyboard heights and I thought that affected the way the keyboard appeared. But here’s the plot twist: the view that contains the letters is always of the same size!

This means that the height difference comes from the bottom safe area.

The universal height of the letters view on iPhone is of 216 points in portrait and 162 points in landscape. On iPad it’s 264 points in portrait and 352 points in landscape (these heights don’t include top the number row).

To be honest, I suspect some devices vary of +10 points but I’m still trying to figure this all out!

As regards the full values, since I couldn’t find a list of them all, I decided to calculate them by myself.

For each device I calculated the height in portrait and landscape mode both with the toolbar on and off.

Note that you’ll only be using those values when you’ll need to know the dimension of the keyboard before you layout the view or for graphic purposes.

If you need to know the height of the keyboard after you layout the view then scroll down to the second part of the article.

This table contains all of the official devices’ dimensions in points.

Official dimensions in point of devices and keyboards

As regards the iPads, I only calculated the heights of the most recent models because there are too many sizes and I didn’t really need them. For those ones I set a generic height. However after this tutorial you’ll be able to calculate whichever keyboard height by yourself.

Here’s the code to detect the height in your project:

Yes it’s a lot!

What you have here is:

A struct that contains the screen dimensions;

A struct that contains the dimensions of each keyboard;

A struct that, based on the device height, detects the device you’re on;

A function that returns the dimension of the keyboard based on the device you’re on;

The latter is the big wheel since it’ll effectively return the height of the keyboard.

If you’re setting up a custom keyboard, remember that those heights include the safe area when it comes to iPhone with the notch.

Again, only use this method if you need to know the size of the keyboard before you layout the view or for graphic purposes.

I can relate to this routine quite a lot. In fact, one thing I’d like to add is organizing my thoughts and ideas in the Notes app on iPhone. Especially right before bed, or early in the morning, it can be a great wait to stay on track. After countless attempts of writing down my ideas on paper, I realized it’s not practical for me. I always have my phone with me and having easy access to my notes is the best. After all, I always return to this method, it’s the most useful!
What can technology do to us?
Tags: iPhone, Devices, AI, Computers, Technology

Listen on: https://anchor.fm/ohknow

Technology had developed from the invention of the lightbulb to the newest iPhone 12. Imagine you lived in the 19th or 20th century. How could you survive without your phone? How could they survive without their phone?

This showed how we nowadays are so desperate for technology. But, this also shows how much humanity is growing and will grow in the future.

smallbiztrends.com

Humanity seems so successful. But, if you look deep, we realize that we aren’t too successful. We have developed such technology that is destroying our lives.

Take an example; gaming. Most of the younger generation right now are manipulated. Manipulated by video games. We have created such a thing that can turn humanity into a disaster.

Technology has its up and downs. Social media is in most lives of adults and can ruin part of it. For example, on a phone, most people, probably even you have social media. Whenever you check a phone when you are bored, what is one of the first things you go to? You probably go on some type of social media. Then you are stuck to it. Checking continuously, it’s so hard to stop.

This is the problem. Some technology is useful and some can hurt you. Even watching T.V, when you turn on the screen, you watch something. All that while you could be watching a live play right in front of your own face. A T.V. is just a shortcut, not to pay for a ticket, not to drive, which can be reasonable.

But, what else could you be doing at that time? You can go outside, play a board game, make some art, etc. There are thousands of things you can do instead of watching TV, checking your phone, or playing a video game. Why would you rather want to check a friend's post on Facebook rather than to talk to someone and make a new friend?

anthillonline.com

Technology is an addiction. Technology has more to it. It is supposed to help out and make our lives easier. The thing is that while technology is growing, it is taking away lower-paid jobs. If you take the invention of the automobile, it shows that in the 19th century, there were people building automobiles. Now, there are robots. These robots are taking away tons of jobs. Robots can help in factories, farms, labs, etc.

These are the reasons that technology is harmful to humanity. Thank you for reading!

Why iPhone 12 Pro Camera Awesome?
By: Mahmud Ahsan
Tags: iPhone, Smartphones, Cameras, Apple, Photography

I am an iOS apps developer for over 10 years. My last iPhone was the iPhone 6 and then I moved to Android devices. I used different android devices and my last one was Samsung Galaxy S10 which died within one and a half years.

Recently I bought the iPhone 12 Pro, and I am really loving my new device. If you say, which feature I like most?

It’s the camera for creating photos and videos.

Well, photography is my hobby. I have been taking photographs since 2009 and I used some heavy weighted DSLRs and mirrorless camera before. I used Canon 5D Mark II, III, Fuji X-T2, Panasonic Lumix G9, Canon G7X II, and now when I travel I use Sony a6600 with 16–55 f/2.8 Lens setup.

Is the iPhone 6s any Good in 2020?
By: Joel Oughton
Tags: iPhone, Smartphones, Tech, Apple, Technology

The most important point I wanted to touch on is the design. Apple is well known for its amazing and consistent design language and this was happening way before the iPhone X was released and paved the way for a new, perhaps uglier build.

The design is simple and gets the job done. Pretty much describes Apples entire design language, really.

One thing you will notice that is out of the ordinary in 2020 is the large bezels at the top and bottom of the phone. Back then, these were perfectly normal and without them, there would be nowhere to house the home button.

Speaking of the home button, this was the norm back then and you had to use it to either unlock your phone or make payments via Apple Pay.

On the side of the phone, you also have another feature that is blatantly missing off of 2020 flagships. The headphone jack.

This was the last phone to feature a headphone jack and, despite the controversy caused at the time, this has turned into the norm for both Android phones and iPhones.

The back of the phone was also made out of aluminium too, a far cry from the fragile glass-backed gadgets we are used to handling today.

This obviously came with a few caveats, most obviously the lack of wireless charging capabilities.

This design is far more durable, though, as whatever Apple may say about the durability of its glass, glass is glass. It will shatter if you use enough force.

All-in-all the design was basic but it served us well at the time and allowed us to get the most out of the headphone jack and the home button, both of which were integral to the iPhone design language and experience at the time.

Even today, the 12mp camera is still very capable and 4k recording is a nice bonus, too
How to Create a Viral Tiktok
By: Nate M
Tags: Tik Tok, Tips And Tricks, iPhone, Social Media, Tips

Without having any followers on TikTok you can still get millions of views. Because of the for-you page, any video can blow up if many of the viewers like the post. While it is easier to have videos go viral if you already have followers, there are still ways to gain views from small accounts. The way I received 4 million views on one post and a few thousand on many others was by following the steps below.

Make sure the beginning of the video makes the viewer want to stay and watch.

If someone is scrolling on their FYP a video that has a good hook will get their attention. In many of my videos, I will put text or say something that will make the viewer want to continue watching.

2. Like and watch your videos on other accounts

The way the algorithm of TikTok works is that they first send ur video out on a small group of people’s fyp and then if they interact with it, the video will go to more and more people until it becomes viral. By liking it on other accounts it will give it a starter boost to help speed up the process.

3. Ask people if they want to exchange follows to grow your platform

When you're just starting out you need to grow your base until it grows for you.

4. Most importantly create content that viewers want to see

Videos that were quickly put together won't go viral but if you take your time, and make a high-quality video with trendy music and sounds then you will eventually gain thousands of views.

Be Patient! It took many videos for me to go viral. Persistence is key.

I will be posting more tips and tricks for TikTok so make sure to follow and help support this post by sharing and clapping!

I always had this desire on helping those in need, but I never got the opportunity to raise enough money to contribute. by buying food and clothes, so covid 19 made me realize that we have to fight for what we believe and I believe everyone needs someone who cares about them , who show love to them , who make them feel valuable and an asset for the country their live, so life has been easy for some of us and very hard for others, people are out there sleeping without eating , they get cold during winter because their don’t have home or comfortable beds , they sleep on the floor while we have comfort in our homes, we see little kid sleeping on the floor and that’s heartbreaking , so we will never be able to help everyone but we can help those we can. by caring , by sharing , by giving love. What ever you help with God will give you 10x more. Those people their have been suffering. in silence while we can see them suffering because we pass by them every day, but we think that we can’t to anything for them because their used to it, to live in the street and eat trash, no one will ever get use to suffering not even those in that situation for a long time, just imagine change someone’s life by helping them, imagine putting smile in a kids face by helping , it’s very pleasurable.

Apple Didn’t Want to Confuse People With The AirPods Max — Tech YouTubers Did
By: Walid Ao
Tags: iPhone, Smartphones, Tech, Apple, Technology

Apple’s new over-ear headphones did not have a smooth start. The company announced its newest addition to the Apple-branded wireless headphones, and the internet exploded. People and tech reviewers alike complained about the high price of the premium headphones.

The AirPods Max is expensive for sure, but it comes with a metal design and amazing features. With $550, it is clear that the headphones are not for everybody.

Apple now has three wireless headphones in its arsenal (without considering Beats’ headsets as part of Apple line-up):

The AirPods ($159),

The Airpods Pro ($249), and

The AirPod Max ($550).

The AirPods Pro and AirPods Max come with noise cancelation and spatial audio, a feature announced in mid-2020 for the AirPods Pro, and now the AirPods Max has this amazing feature too.

In an old-fashioned Apple standard, the Cupertino company aimed for a seamless user experience. The AirPods Max, like their predecessors, do not include a power button. Instead, the Headphones go into power-saving mode if not being used.

However, Apple did not bother to mention the different power-modes of the AirPods Max when they were announced on December 8th, 2020. They just showcased the headphones and the weirdly designed Smart Case. Apple only mentioned that the AirPods Max would go into an ultra-low power state whenever they are in the Smart Case.

“When stored in their soft, slim Smart Case, AirPods Max enter an ultra‑low‑power state that preserves charge.” — Apple

And the tech YouTubers took it from there and started releasing their “reviews” without understanding the different power modes for the AirPods Max. They only heard the above quote from Apple, and they assumed that this is the only power-saving mode in the AirPods Max.

The negative reviews regarding the lack of a power-saving mode and a power button pushed the Cupertino company to issue a press release last week to explain the different power-modes already included in the newest headphones.
Best iPhone Web Browsers. Edge

Choosing the right browser may sometimes be difficult as every developer promises to offer the best browsing experience. But we come to know the reality behind these browsers when we use them. Safari is touted as an effective browser, but we can’t vouch for this claim. We have prepared a list of the best browsers for iPhone users. If you are one of those looking for the best iPhone web browsers, check out the options listed below.

Edge

Edge is one of the most effective iPhone browsers on the list. The latest version of Edge has come with more new features and is based on Chromium. In order to use the browser on your iPhone, you need a Microsoft account. You can link your Windows 10 PC with your iOS device and exchange the bookmarks, web pages, and many other things. Edge offers the “Tracking prevention” feature that other browsers do not offer. It comes with tabs, a password manager, a language translator, and many other useful features. It is a free browser with good features.

Opera Touch

Opera Touch is an attractive browser in terms of the user interface. Opera Browser has been renamed Opera Touch for iOS devices. For Android users, it is still Opera. Opera Touch is a superb browser for iPhone users. It offers great security to its users and has earned prestige for being a reliable browser for more than decades. It works as a great ad-blocker. You can save as many tabs as you want in the browser. The browsing experience it offers is quite satisfactory.

Dolphin

When it comes to one of the fastest browsers for iPhone, Dolphin is the name that is difficult to forget. Dolphin enhances your browsing experience and makes it possible to search for anything in the least possible time. It comes with impressive features and allows you to move to bookmarks and navigation shortcuts in just a single click. The gesture feature allows you to go to the desired page or refresh one. You can draw your own gestures and operate the browser in your own way. Night Mode is good and dims the brightness so that your eyes are not affected while you browse at night.

Firefox Focus

Firefox Focus is a simple but great browser that offers a smooth browsing experience and focuses on privacy and security. If you are conscious about security in the internet world, Firefox Focus may be a good browser for you. It does an excellent job as an ad-blocker. The downside is that you can’t have multiple tabs on the browser. If security comes first, Focus is worth giving a try.

The purpose of the list was to make you familiar with the best iPhone web browsers. We have prepared the list, keeping users’ needs in mind.

Are Apple’s Stock Apps Worth Using?
By: Brad Laplante
Tags: iPhone, Apple

You’ve heard it all from unapologetic Apple critics: Chrome is better than Safari, Apple Maps is… the worst, even some video pros refuse to use Final Cut Pro for some reason.

Apple’s first-party apps aren’t necessarily terrible, but I’m just not sure that they’re totally worth it. Obviously, it depends on who you are and what sort of biases you might have towards each product, but today I thought it might be worth going through Apple’s apps and actually breaking them down, just to see what they actually offer.

I was first inspired to do this story after reading this one by Paul Alvarez, but wanted to approach this a little differently. For one, I’ll be comparing different apps for each Apple first-party app. I’ll also dive into Apple’s macOS apps to see if there are any benefits for those.

The main benefits to running native Apple apps on Apple hardware are just that: they perform much better, especially on macOS. Another huge benefit is integration with other Apple products, like universal Apple Music support on Siri (you can use Spotify with Siri, but instead of “hey Siri, play blink-182” you’d need to say “hey Siri, play blink-182 on Spotify”).

I don’t really mix-and-match that much — I have an Apple keyboard and mouse for Pete’s sake — but it does add a lot of value to the tech I use every day. So without further introduction, let’s test some of these first-party apps against my favorite alternatives.

The apps I’m trying out include:

Options to how to backup text messages on iphone

There are several ways to backup text messages on iphone, including:

Taking screenshots of important messages

iCloud backup

iTunes backup

Creating a searchable archive backup

Each of the four options has its advantages and disadvantages to backup text messages on iphone.

iphone sms export

The first option is to take screenshots of any messages you want to iphone sms export. This isn’t a message backup in iphone so much as it’s a way to make a second copy that you can save.

There are two different methods for taking screenshots on the iPhone, depending on the model you have.

If you have an iPhone X or newer that uses Face ID, press the side button and volume-up button at the same time to capture a screenshot.

This method is not an efficient way to iphone sms export since you need to take a screenshot of every conversation separately to message backup in iphone. And if a conversation is longer than one screen, you need to take a bunch of screenshots even to save a message backup in iphone.

message backup in iphone

The second option for message backup in iphone is to use iCloud backup. iCloud is Apple’s cloud-based storage for syncing things like your contacts, calendars, and settings. You can also use it to message backup in iphone.

To turn on iCloud backup, open the Settings app, tap on your name, tap on iCloud, and tap on iCloud Backup. You can also tap on message backup in iPhone if you want to back up your iPhone right away.

Apple released an update for older iPhones running iOS 12

Apple just released a new software update for the iPhone 5s and 6 users. It is really amazing to see that Apple still supports 7 to 8 years old devices. Usually, smartphone manufacturers provide 2 to 3 years of software updates. Apple released iOS 12.5 for its iPhone users. The update is mainly focused on COVID-19 Exposure Notifications support and some security updates. There are many people who still use older iPhones like the iPhone 5s and 6. This new update of iOS 12.5 provides the COVID-19 Exposure Notifications feature for these two devices.

Screenshot from Apple

Apple mentioned in the update that iOS 12.5 also includes some major security updates and it is recommended for all users to update. Apple mentioned in iOS 12.5 update note:

iOS 12.5 lets you opt-in to the COVID-19 Exposure Notifications system for your iPhone. System availability depends on support from your local public health authority.

For more information see covid19.apple.com/contacttracing. This release also provides security updates and is recommended for all users. For information on the security content of Apple software updates, please visit this website.

As the Covid-19 pandemic started in December last year, Apple and Google both companies started working together on a contact tracing API. This contact tracing feature will help in reducing the spread of the coronavirus. This contact tracing feature uses a Bluetooth signal to communicate with nearby devices. All of this is done with privacy, No user data or location is required in this process. If any person found out that he/she is COVID positive, a notification will be sent to all the other people who made contact with that person. Both Apple and Google released a contact tracing feature that works without any application. The feature is called Exposure Notification Express. The best part about this feature is you don’t need a separate application to run this feature on your device. When Apple released the official iOS 13.7 for the public, it automatically turns on the exposure notification feature.

Yesterday Apple released the COVID-19 Exposure Notifications feature for older iPhone 5s users running iOS 12. If you are a person who still uses the iPhone 5s or 6, you should update your iPhone to the latest iOS 12.5 software.
