Instagram down

On Tuesday, there were problems with Facebook's subsidiary Instagram. At around 21:30 p.m., the problem of direct messages not being able to be sent or received became more frequent. Viewing and uploading posts was still possible during the disruption. Instagram was able to resolve the problem just an hour later. The social media platform has been working as normal since then.

Android 10 for Samsung smartphones on the way

The finished version of Android 10 has been in circulation on a wide range of smartphones from various companies since September. While some manufacturers are still running a beta program or others are already distributing the software, Samsung is getting ready for its own launch.

The last supported models in the range will receive the new Android by September 2020 at the latest.

So you can now attach it to the wall and the fabric cover is made of recycled materials. In his test report, editor Nils clarified what else the device can do.

TechnikNews Advent competition 2019

Last but not least, we were able to start another Advent competition on today's first Sunday in Advent. As part of this, we're raffling off the Sonos Move and a Teufel ROCKSTER Go today. Participation is possible until the next competition, all details can be found in the info article.
