How to apply for the new MySSS Card

The days of the UMID card may soon be over as the Social Security System (SSS) launched the new MySSS card. MySSS Card is a big upgrade to the UMID. Why? Well, apart from being an official SSS ID, it also works as a debit card, thanks to the built-in EMV chip. You can use the MySSS Card directly at a partner bank’s ATM to instantly withdraw SSS benefits, loans, and other proceeds. No need to do a separate enrollment process under the Disbursement Account Enrollment Module (DAEM). SSS teamed up with RCBC DiskarTech for the initial rollout of the service. UnionBank, China Bank, and AUB are expected to join soon. However, SSS noted that government agencies and private institutions are not mandated to accept the new MySSS card as an official ID. Your old UMID or any issued SSS cards are still valid, so you might want to keep them. You’re eligible for the new MySSS card if you’re a: member, prior registrant, pensioner, individual claimant, and representative payee who will p...

OPPO Find X9 gets native AirDrop sharing support for iOS and Mac

OPPO-Find-X9-Pro-5395

OPPO has announced that its next premium phones will include a tool for sharing files with Apple devices. The feature works without needing to download any extra apps.

The company confirmed that the Find X9 and Find X9 Pro will get this ability through a software update later this month. The Find X9 Ultra, which is set to arrive soon, will also have it from the start.

This tool is based on Google’s Quick Share system, which was recently updated to work with Apple’s AirDrop. When the update is ready, people with a Find X9 can send pictures, videos, and other files to an iPhone, iPad, or Mac just as easily as they would to another Android phone.

OPPO worked with Google and chip designer MediaTek to make this happen. The company said the goal is to make it simple and safe to move data between different devices.

This is a big step forward for ease of use. In the past, OPPO phone owners had to use an app called O+Connect to send files to an iPhone. That method was less convenient because the iPhone also needed to have the app installed.

The new way removes that extra step. Users can soon share content directly between devices without searching for or opening any third-party software.

What does the “IP” rating on your smartphone mean?

If you look at your new phone’s specifications, you will notice something like “IP69 Water and Dust Protection.” This is a common selling point that phone manufacturers and brands show on their specifications. At first glance, it may appear too technical, but it’s actually straightforward. What does the IP code mean? The “IP” in the IP code stands for Ingress Protection, an internationally recognized standard defined by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) that indicates the level of dust and water protection of a gadget, such as a mobile phone or other electronic device. As you notice, the letters IP are usually followed by a mix of numbers and/or letters, like ‘IP69’ or ‘IPX7,’ indicating their water and dust protection rating.  We already mentioned what IP stands for.
