Number of rings during missed call in smartphone #phonecall #alerts

Only way to differentiate between a missed call and an accidental call is the number of times the phone rang i.e. one who really called would likely wait till the end of all rings and the one who dialled by accident would likely end the call as soon as it is found.

So, if the missed call alert shows the number of rings (or) the duration of the rings then it would be easier to asses whether someone really tried to call me or was it just an accidental call.

I think, this would be a useful feature to have and hence there is a need gap for such a feature.

Capturing good photos from any phone #photography #phone

I don't take pictures to post to social networks often, so I run my phone until software updates are available, as cameras are usually the only distinguishing feature even among flagships.

But, when I do take a photograph (usually insects, birds and animals) I would like the picture to be good. But, it is rarely the case as only few smartphone manufacturers have got the knack of capturing good photographs even though the hardware (sensor, lens, processor) are the same.

Their secret sauce lies in the machine learning powered image processing software, as spectacularly demonstrated by Google with their pixel lineup of phones and few other manufacturers.

So why not take that software to the cloud and let anyone get good quality photographs from any mobile? All current smartphones can capture images in RAW format, with better Internet bandwidth on the phone, a RAW format image can be uploaded to the cloud for ML - image processing while a lower quality JPEG can be displayed on the phone. Once processed, higher quality pictures can be shared to the social network or downloaded.

I think a phone camera app with this service can fill a large need gap of getting good photos on any phone. 3 points posted by Abishek Muthian
