#video sharing apps

A small team from Area 120, Google's lab for experimental projects, have created Tangi - a social video sharing app. Unlike other social video sharing platforms, Tangi helps people learn how to do new things with quick DIY videos. The Ayala-led fintech platform said scammers are now using more sophisticated social engineering tactics including impersonation, fake video calls, malicious app downloads, and screen-sharing manipulation to gain unauthorized access to users’ e-wallet and banking accounts. GCash emphasized that it will never ask users to: Share OTPs, MPINs, or passwords Download apps from unofficial links Join video calls for account verification Share screens during financial transactions Users are advised to download apps only from official platforms such as the Apple App Store, Google Play Store, or Huawei AppGallery. Smart Communications, the mobile arm of PLDT, has rolled out a new feature that lets its users make video calls directly from their phones without the need for apps like Messenger, Zoom, or WhatsApp. While many Filipinos already rely on popular apps for video calls, Smart said that ViLTE provides a better and more stable experience.
