More than one will think ... it was about time! We all know that Mixing alcohol and using a mobile phone is totally inadvisable. When we are not in full condition, use according to which applications can have serious consequences. Who does not know a case? Thinking about how "dangerous" a mobile phone becomes when we have an extra drink, a possible solution has been registered with the Chinese National Patent Office.
A call at odd hours, a message to the ex or some wrong comment on social networks can be some of the consequences that the use of the smartphone can leave while being drunk. Now, those who have had to apologize the next day and throw excuses, they will be able to leave more relaxed knowing that they will never screw up the phone again even if their alcoholism level exceeds the allowed rate.
The "drunk mode" will save you from awkward situations
Applying the current technology to the tools we use the most, a Chinese company has decided to develop an application so that being drunk, we cannot create situations that we later regret. A priori the operation of the "drunk mode" It is very simple. The main idea is to somewhat limit the use of certain applications. Or even limit functionalities within applications that we could consider "dangerous."
To be able to activate this curious drunk mode, it will be the user himself who must configure it previously. For example, limiting access to Facebook, or forbidding to open the WhatsApp application. In this way, with the active mode you will not be able to send messages or make comments on Facebook posts. The most basic functionalities such as making a call could also be restricted or send a sms. It remains to be seen how it is activated or if it can be programmed.
Another cool feature that presents the drunk mode is that of simplify the device interface as much as possible. Thus, when the user is in a drunken state, it will not cost much to access the contacts or the camera in the mobile menu, for example. Although at the moment the patent has been registered in china, by the company Gree electronics, and we do not know if it will make the leap to the west. Surely we all have someone in mind that could be great.
