On a smartphone running on Android, you can turn on a secret game that changes with each new version of the mobile OS. On Sunday, May 2, the PR-manager of the HiTech Group Sergey Sevryukov told the Prime agency about this.
This secret game is otherwise called “Easter egg” (or “Easter egg”). Now “Easter eggs” have ceased to be so popular, but about 15-20 ago, this topic was very relevant. According to Sevryukov, the secrets were embedded not only in software, but also in websites, films, etc.
A selection of “Easter eggs” are available on the Internet, they can be found through the query “Easter eggs in programs” or similar. Secret games in each version of Android are different, and in order to discover them, the user must be attentive and dexterous.
In some cases, the secret may turn out to be just an interactive screensaver, Sevryukov noted, but that is not the point.
“Even if it’s a game, then, naturally, no one will constantly“ cut ”into it, since it is, as a rule, inconvenient to control, and the meaning is primitive. But it is quite possible to surprise someone by launching it in such a simple way, ”the expert concluded.
On April 28, Android users were warned of the dangers of the fast checkout feature. When a user saves information about payment cards, the risk of information leakage to cybercriminals increases. To protect yourself from fraud, you need to prevent systems from storing and transferring card information to third-party sites.
