In 2020, Among Us was one of the most popular mobile games globally. It even won Best Mobile Game and Best Multiplayer Game at The Games Award 2020. Now, other developers hope to emulate its success with similar social deduction games, and Goose Goose Duck is one of them.

For a lot of Malaysians, WhatsApp is the chat messaging app of choice. It's a user-friendly app and has useful features like Multi-device. The public beta was made available to Malaysians just recently, but an update is already in development.

Yesterday, many of us found the PCs linked to our WhatsApp account suddenly unlinked. Well, that's because the company finally made an update to the Linked Devices feature. That's right, by now you've probably noticed that Multi-device is finally available to us.

Twitter has introduced quite some new features in recent years. However, not every one of them was able to win users' hearts. Earlier, the company announced that it had to take away Fleets, an Instagram Stories-like feature, as "it hasn't seen an increase in the number of new people joining the conversation with Fleets like it hoped." Now, the social media platform is serving something new called Communities, and it's what we've seen on its rivals.

A few weeks back, we got the news that WhatsApp was working on a new iOS-to-Android feature. It wanted to make it possible for users to transfer their chat history from one platform to another. This would be useful if you plan to migrate to Android.

Last month, Clubhouse finally dropped its invite-only system, allowing anyone on iOS and Android to join the platform. Now, the company has to come up with ways to keep its users around. And it seems that new audio features are on the cards.

Many Malaysians use online banking regularly now, making payments and transferring money through the Internet. E-wallets can also do that, which is why many have begun to use them. But it seems some people think you should be able to do transactions via messaging apps like WhatsApp too.

In case you didn't know, WhatsApp has already rolled out the View Once update on your iOS and Android. If you want more of those, the WhatsApp team is now working on making messages disappearing.

A few weeks back, Apple launched Spatial Audio and Lossless Audio for Apple Music. Now that the company has paved the way, other companies are looking to add similar features to their apps. One of them happens to be an iOS app for Netflix.

As you know, messaging apps can be used to share a variety of different content. But besides images, the thing we mostly share are URLs. When you share links on WhatsApp, you get to see what's on the site. Now, preview links are getting an upgrade.
