Only If Harry Potter & His Friends had a Smartphone!

hp
If you love magic , JK Rowling’s best selling book ‘Harry Potter and the six books that followed’ wouldn’t be new to you. What is it about this fantasy world that has been so astonishingly attractive for so many adults and children you wonder. What magic was to them is what smartphones are to us today. If you are a pottermaniac you must have at some moment thought of all the possibilities the students of Hogwarts would have if they had access to a smartphone ! I am not saying wands and magic potions weren’t enough for them but what if they were to use smartphones in their daily life ? Well well I have always had these crazy thoughts of what it would be like if harry potter and his friends had access to the smartphones ! :D
Its damn outright true that when you’ve got magic, you don’t really need the net or a smartphone for that matter. But let’s just say that in a parallel universe, Harry Potter and the gang get their hands on a smartphone and discover the wonders of the apps installed on a smartphone, what would it be like?! If that happened, then these are the ways I guessed they would benefit from it.
1. No more waiting : Remember how Harry and his friends had to wait for holidays and weekends to taste their favorite Butterbeer ( Well its simply the most delicious drink ever even though nobody has tried it yet!) , Magical sweets, the delicious Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans and chocolate frogs. They would travel in the coldest of the winters to the three broomsticks to get a sip of their favorite drink . If they had the power of smartphones they would able to order all these at the click of a button ! Viola , I am sure Hermoine would use the time saved in studying some more. :P
2. No ‘OUCH’ moments: What happens when you have a surprise Yule Ball announcement and your mother has packed your sister’s clothes for you ? Well you don’t want to end up looking like Ron, would you? If Ron and Harry had access to smartphones they would simply login to Myntra/Flipkart via app and shop for the latest men’s suits and end up looking dapper and catching the right girl’s attention!
3. Google maps :
 
Yes please. You don’t want to end up meeting Malfoy and forcefully having to look at the ill faced Malfoy again and again . Find better paths back to your classrooms via google maps or Hoogle maps (Hogwarts+Google) ;) And Harry won’t get lost while heading to Platform nine and three quarters again !
4. SHOPPING: Book a new Broom at a single click - Ask Harry or Ron or even Ginny what a broom means to them ! Harry will swear by a broom because that’s what got him through the dragons task in ‘'the Goblet of Fire’ plus not to forget Quidditch is impossible to play without a broom! And what happens if you have a Broom breakout or some nasty fat or sleazy student from Slytherin steals your broom? You order a new one from your smartphone that too on next day delivery/Same day delivery ! :D Plus online shopping portals like Myntra have app only offers that always have huge discounts running on their websites ;) No more skipping Quidditch ! And no doubts when you tell shopping from portals like Myntra which have a whopping 80% flat off on app sales , its like MAGIC for the Weasely family considering they have to spend cautiously because they haven’t the income to buy new brooms without discounts :D!
And shopping for gifts would be so much easier for Ron and Dobby who always end up giving the most awkward gifts ! I am sure they would send so much love to Myntra app after Hermoine would kiss him when he got her a romantic gift ;)
5. Apps -Harry Potter Instagram
OH YES ! You can only imagine the amount of fun and help it would have been if Harry and his gang would have access to smartphones ! Endless apps such as Instagram, Twitter, Facebook ,Flashlight, Flipkart, Myntra , Gmail, Whatsapp , camera etc Advanced tech apps are a boon to all those who use them ! Endless shopping, instant messaging, immediate access to news and micro blogging . Not to forget every tweet sent out by Harry would be the most favorited and most Retweeted ;) Dobby dropping a happy birthday msg on Facebook profile of Harry and so much more !
So that’s what it would be like if wizards had smartphones! It would definitely feel like magic!

Anywhere, Anytime, Always Recharged : My Airtel App!

MyAirtel App
I am a Airtel Broadband user and ever since Bharti Airtel introduced their MyAirtel App I have been running around in circles with joy ! I remember times when I wanted to know the balance amount and I had to call someone and cut the line so I could know how much balance amount is left for making calls. And there were times when my data usage would turn zero and I couldn't even buy a data pack because no access to internet ! The new MyAirtel app is a life saver for people who face problems like these! Now internet data recharging and mobile postpaid recharging is at my finger tips *yayy* No more going to the shop keeper wala bhaiyya and asking him to recharge ! Smartphones have really made lives easier and apps are the malai on the milk :P
MyAirtel app review
The new 'my airtel' app is a boon to Indian subscribers as it lets them to manage their mobile, fixed line and DTH services! I downloaded the app, which is absolutely free from Google Play Store and for those who intend to download the app through SMS can do so by messaging 'myairtel' to 54321.
I so loved the buy products from airtel option, all those wanting to buy a new connection can easily do so now that the super app is out for downloading! The app is simple and user friendly and does not complicate one ! I am so glad I downloaded the app immediately on its release ! My most favorite features of this app are as follows:
Favorite MyAirtel App feature
1. I want To feature : This feature allows one to add favorites like quick recharge , paying bills and one can get access to everything with just a single swipe in the app ! Isn't that cool! The first that I added in the 'I want to' feature was mobile recharge ! 
2. Speedy Recharge & Faster Checkouts: Remember times when you had to use third party apps/sites to recharge your prepaid and postpaid line. From getting a 2G/3G pack to recharging and making payments -Its so EASY and Quick! No more logging into a third party account and then selecting the pack which we want to recharge it with!
3. Low Data/Low balance Reminder : Even though I have a feature of data usage warning on my mobile , it tends to get all confused and I end up using more than I intended to, hence the feature in the app which allows to set data usage alerts or reminders is love only!
Overall its a the new MyAirtel app is a very handy app which allows us to manage all of the Airtel services straight from our cell phones !The new MyAirtel app has made life simpler for all those airtel customers out there! I highly recommended a download, especially for all those people with more than one Airtel connection.
