    How to watch YouTube Videos without an Active Internet Connection

    YouTube. Apart from being regarded as the second largest search engine (very debatable), YouTube has become a platform where you can find just about any video to watch as well as enjoy some great music.

    One reason why a lot of people “fear” YouTube is its high data usage. And it becomes particularly annoying if you are the kind of person that goes on YouTube to watch just about the same kinds of things all the time.

    Today, I’m sharing a very legal and useful way you can use to watch YouTube videos offline, without having to worry about data charges.

    The feature I will like to speak about is YouTube’s Offline Feature.

    It’s actually very simple. If you so much like a video on YouTube and you would want to watch it while there is no internet, YouTube will allow you to download the video onto your phone/tablet and then watch it later.

    Once the video has been downloaded, you can watch it as many times as you want without using up your mobile data or WiFi. You should, however, note that not all videos can be downloaded. If the Publisher made the settings so that the video can be downloaded (most publishers enable this), then you can go ahead and download it.

    If you have internet problems and that is the reason you want to watch youtube videos offline, you should check out the wonderful usave broadband deals. There is a deal for everyone.

    How to Watch YouTube Videos Offline

    1. Go to the YouTube app and tap on the video of your choice. Below the video, you will see the option of Download, touch on it.
    2. After downloading the video, the video will start downloading. Here Youtube will ask you about the quality of Download Video, which you can set according to your liking.
    3. After scrolling down the notification bar, you will be able to see the size and download status of the video.
    4. As soon as the video gets downloaded, you will see a notification for the video being downloaded in the Notification bar.
    5. You will see the Downloaded option of blue colour below the video of your choice, which means that your video has been downloaded.
    6. Now to watch this video without internet, you have to go to YouTube’s Library. There you will see the option of available offline, tap on it – you will find the downloaded video there.

    You will see the downloaded video. You can now watch the video without the internet for a month. If you have internet within the period of one month, you can still continue to watch the video without any interruptions.

    Are there any ways you watch YouTube videos offline? You can share with us in the comments section below.

  • 2 new online scams you can find on Tonaton and Jiji

    2 new online scams you can find on Tonaton and Jiji

    When it comes to online classified sites in Ghana, Tonaton and Jiji stand out as the two prominent ones. As with every good thing, there are always bad people looking to take advantage – fraudsters.

    The two platforms – Tonaton and Jiji, are not new to fraudsters, and a lot of buyers have been on the lookout on signs to avoid these fraudsters. However, the fraudsters and con artists are getting smarter too.

    In recent times, they have come up with new tricks and schemes which unsuspecting buyers might not know of.

    Here at Mfidie.com, we have had reports about some of these schemes of the fraudsters. Some have used old methods to fraud people. However, there are some new trends we have noticed recently.

    We have therefore decided to bring to you two of the new scams you can find on Tonaton and Jiji in Ghana.

    Let’s get right into it.

    VIP Parcel Fraud

    This fraud is becoming very popular on the online classified sites Tonaton and Jiji. We even have the story of a reader who was scammed with this elaborate method.

    This scam targets individuals who are interested in buying electronic gadgets, particularly laptops, chromebooks and sometimes gaming consoles like the Xbox and Playstation.

    The fraudsters place multiple ads on either Tonaton or Jiji and make unsuspecting ads think that the price of a particular product is generally low on the market.

    For example, one can see about 6 HP Envy, 8GB RAM i7, all selling between GHS 1200 and GHS 1500. Since there are multiple listings for the same kind of laptop, the unsuspecting buyer things these are real enough.

    He then proceeds to contact the seller who says they will send the product via the VIP parcel service. The fraudsters would typically tell the buyer to only send the money after he (the fraudster) has processed the item at the VIP Parcel centre.

    The fraudster then goes ahead to share fake images that they are at the VIP station and are about to send the non-existent goods. They even send an SMS, purporting to be coming from the VIP service that the parcel is being sent to the buyer and give a fake driver’s number. The driver is also part of the scam.

    The fraudsters keep the fraud going even after the buyer has sent the money. After some hours, when the buyer goes to the VIP office to claim his goods, he will then realise he has been scammed.

    I would advise that if you want to buy something from another region, get a friend or a trusted person to check the goods first and send it by himself/herself.

    Fuel the Vehicle Scam

    This scam is an example of “little drops of money make a mighty ocean”. Unlike the VIP Parcel service scam, the cash involved in this ranges from GHS 50 to GHS 500.

    Fraudsters would put up nice photos of Cars on either Tonaton or Jiji at very competitive prices.

    Once interested buyers contact them, they would say that they moved the vehicle outside the city they advertised that the vehicle is in. They would then tell the buyer they will be back in a month or 2 weeks at the least.

    Buyers who are not patient will proceed to ask if the process of returning can be sped up. This is where the fraudster asks the buyer to send some money for fuel so that the car will be driven back to the city it was advertised in.

    As expected, the fraud is in the money for the fuel. Once the fraudster receives the money for the fuel, they would just block the buyer while they wait for another unsuspecting buyer to contact them so they run the scam again.

    Like always, never be too impatient for goods you are buying. It is always good to see the goods before you buy them especially on classifieds site. Most sellers who try to put psychological pressure on you will most likely try to scam you.

    Conclusion

    You should always be alert when you are buying online. We have guides on how to protect yourself online when buying from classified sites.

    MTN Mobile Money remains the biggest mobile banking platform for many Ghanaians. For a long time, withdrawing from your MTN Mobile Money wallet was solely facilitated by Mobile Money Merchants.

    To really make MTN Mobile Money a real 24/7 service, MTN Ghana introduced the ability to withdraw Mobile Money Funds from Automatic Teller Machines (ATMs) nationwide.

    MTN Holiday Bundle: Get 2.5GB for just GHS 10 every Holiday

    MTN Ghana has a lot of Data options available for almost every need. Although many people might say that their bundles are costly (and yes, they are), choosing some particular offers is usually beneficial over the others.

    I dread the GHS 3 bundle so much, especially now that you won’t get a bonus on it if you do not subscribe via the MyMTN App.

    For all those looking forward to tomorrow’s Kwame Nkrumah Memorial Day holiday, MTN is giving you a good offer for browsing and streaking with all your family and friends.

    If you are going to be on the road, you can use this data to stream music on Spotify or YouTube. The mobile data has no restrictions at all. It’s the MTN Holiday/Special Day Bundle, and we will walk through how you can subscribe to it.

    How to subscribe to the MTN Holiday Bundle

    Before you subscribe to the MTN Holiday Bundle, make sure you have at least GHS 10 airtime, then follow the instructions below:

    5. On the Buy/Send tab, choose “Data.”
    6. Under subscriptions, tap on “Get 2.5GB of Data on Special Days.”
    7. Choose “Subscribe”
    8. You will receive a message showing that you have successfully subscribed to the Holiday/Special Days Bundle

    Kindly note that the data costs GHS 10, and you can not subscribe to another subscriber. Also, the data is valid for 24 hours (only the holiday) and can not be carried forward to another holiday.

    Conclusion

    This data bundle from MTN Ghana is worth it if you are primarily on your office’s wifi and will need a higher bundle pack for this holiday. Hopefully, there are more holidays/special days so we can get to enjoy this bundle more.

  • 2 Google Search Operators to help you search and get the right results

    2 Google Search Operators to help you search and get the right results

    Google search operators are some of the basic, yet often overlooked features of the search engine. As defined by Moz, “Google search operators are special characters and commands (sometimes called “advanced operators”) that extend the capabilities of regular text searches.”

    Knowing a couple of these operators can greatly impact the quality of your search results positively.

    Why Google Search?

    Google is the world’s biggest search engine, and mastering it, with these google search operators will help you gain control of your search results. Achieve more in less time.

    In this post, we look at 4 of these search operators you should be using every day to get the results you need. About two years ago, while on a volunteer programme, I taught a woman 4 of these search operators and she remarked it changed the way she searched on Google.

    First, let us do a generic search (a search without any operator) so we look at the results without any operator. I would go with the term: Teenage pregnancy in Ghana (don’t ask me why!).

    The various Operators

    Results for generic search: teenage pregnancy in Ghana

    Without the use of any Google Search Operators, the "normal" results just come out
    Without the use of any Google Search Operators, the “normal” results just come out

    The results that are displayed are general results relating to teenage pregnancy, searched and displayed according to Google’s algorithm. Let’s now take a look at our first Google Search Operator.

    “Search Term”

    This operator searches for the exact phrase within speech marks only. This is ideal when the phrase you are using to search is ambiguous and could be easily confused with something else, or when you’re not quite getting relevant enough results back. For example: Let’s now search for “Teenage pregnancy in Ghana”

    If you want to be 100% sure that only results with a specific key phrase are shown, you need to put them in quotation marks.
    If you want to be 100% sure that only results with a specific key phrase are shown, you need to put them in quotation marks.

    The difference between this and the first result is that it searches for the exact phrase “teenage pregnancy in Ghana” in the exact same order you typed it. The quotation marks or “search terms” helps you remove any irrelevant results from the search engines.

    Search deep into a website by using “site:”

    This one is very easy to use.  Just put the domain name immediately after the colon. It is especially useful if you want articles on a subject from a particular site. Let’s say I want to search for articles relating to teenage pregnancy on Ghanaweb.com

    The "site:" operator searches only within a given domain – delectable when you want to only search within the confines of a particular site, this time Ghanaweb.com
    The “site:” operator searches only within a given domain – delectable when you want to only search within the confines of a particular site, this time Ghanaweb.com

    Combine Google Search Operators

    You can use these search operators together for more refined results. Let’s make a search with the “site:” and “search term” operators.
    We type exactly this in Google Search: site:ghanaweb.com teenage pregnancy “western region”. What this tells Google Search is to search only on the website ghanaweb.com for articles that contain teenage pregnancy, but the term “western region” should be present in the result in the same order.
    This means that if there was an article and “western region” was written as “West of Ghana”, that result would not show up.

    Getting a grip on the Google Search Operators? There are a lot more of them you should look out for. However, experiment with these two and see if they make any difference in your search life.

    • Simplified navigation due to the stripped-down interface, where only slot machines and important buttons for managing the service are stored.

    Which is better: app VS playing in a browser?

    Some players prefer to launch slot machines without downloading and installing a casino application for playing for money. But according to statistics, most gambling connoisseurs prefer to install the application. It allows you to use bonuses on time and receive gifts for playing on new slots. Updating the assortment of the establishment from the browser will take time, and access will be temporarily unavailable.

    Some fans of the browser version of slots hint at clogging up the phone with various casino applications. However, we want to inform you that they take up a maximum of 20-50 MB of free space. Considering the average mobile phone size of 4-16 GB, this is just a little. Moreover, applications do not strain the phone and do not make it warm up, they require a minimum of RAM, which cannot be said about the running browser Google Chrome or Opera.

    Remember, you need to look for casino apps from our list. It features verified and licensed clubs that guarantee the safety of gambling.
