Instagraph:A Substitute Of Instagram For WindowsPhone

Windows is no doubt one of the most growing app market but there are quite few apps which are quite famous on android and iOS but are not available on windows,One of them is Instagram.While Windows phone users are still waiting for official Instagram app,Instagraph has tried to fulfill it.


Venetasoft,The Creator of the app has tried to copy the exact same process as followed by instagram.He has also developed Turbo Camera, Security Toolkit, Cam Broadcaster, Motion Cam, Intrusion Alarm and more security-focused programs for Windows Phone.

Right now you can't create an account,You can manage them, but not create them. The only way to create an Instagram account is as a first time user is via their official Android or iOS app. That sets up another hurdle for unofficial Instagram app creators
 

 The app is only meant to post images to your Instagram account but as of now, is not used for browsing photos. Likewise, if you want to comment or favorite your own photos, it will open a popup Window.

It's too early in the day to say whether this app will work in a manner that users wants it to be and will fulfill their expectations.Still, it’s one to look out for when there Instagram is not listening to Windows Users.

The big Question is will it be able to pass Windows Phone Store Certification ??

BlueStacks (Android App Player) Is Out For Windows 8

For those who don't know, 'BlueStacks' is just like an Android simulator where you can run all your Android apps right on your PC. Many of us will be familiar with it as we use the same software for installing 'Whatsapp On PC'.

Now, the good news is that BlueStacks has been released, or one can say optimized, for Windows 8. All the android action is now back on your PC. Users carrying Windows Phone or iOS can now easily enjoy almost all Android apps right on their PC. With 'almost' I mean it's right now filled with only 750,000 mobile apps but that's more than enough.. Right?? 



You can download Bluestacks via link below.

Registry hacking to Increase Touch Screen Responsiveness on the Microsoft Surface

When we buy a laptop or mobile phone, their performance level is locked to a certain level even if they can work to a higher level for reasons such as prohibiting more power usage or more memory usage. But if you want to increase the limit of any of the features you just have to hack into your system and change its limit. Today i will be telling you how to increase the touch screen responsiveness on the Microsoft Surface, this is a very small and easy kind of hack which includes Registry modification.

Procedure-

  • Search "regedit" and Run Registry Editor in your Microsoft Surface.
  • Go to this key : HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\TouchPredict ion
  • Edit key for latency from 8 to 2.
  • Edit sample time from 8 to 2
  • Restart your Surface
Now your Surface is ready with increased touch screen responsiveness but there is a small disadvantage of this, that is the battery backup will decrease by a small amount as the screen draws more power. 

Note- Perform this procedure on our own risk Hackinthus is not responsible for any damage to your device.
