@heeshees - you're going to like this one. This will be your chapter ;)

@nikstrange - girl with all those edits you be sending me...you're next. lol. dont worry boo...i got you.

Walking out through the double door exit, you saw the parked car before you the moment you stepped out. Heeseung gets out of the front passenger seat and opens the door to the back for you, flashing you with a warm and closed-mouth smile, greeting you as he cradles you into the back seat before returning to his own beside Heejeong.

“How was work?” 

“It was good, thanks.” You faintly returned the smile as you settle in the seat. 

Heejeong was driving this time. While you placed your seatbelt on, he turns back to make eye contact and inquires how your day went.

“Did you have a good day?” 

“Yeah I did, a little busy but good. Thanks.”

Once Heeseung was settled in his own seat, the brothers both paired a soft smile as Heejeong begins driving off, while Heeseung inquires what you were craving for dinner. 

“Anything in particular you want for dinner?” 

“Mmm no not really, whatever you guys feel like having is fine.”

“Oh come girl, we’ve been choosing since you moved in. It’s your turn, tell us…” turning around in his seat, while you sat directly behind, Heeseung peeks back at you. Leaning slightly backwards, his shoulder blades hovering over the center console as his head gently grazes over Heejeong’s shoulder, he displays a toothy grin with narrow eyes as he nudges his chin to you. With the hand that was closest to your leg, he reaches over and gently places his palm right on the edge of your kneecap. 

“What do you want? Baby….sis?” 

You smiled and chuckled nervously at his tone, his words, and the physical contact. Yet the roughness of his hand against your bare skin felt relaxing…and thrilling at the same time. The scent of his and Heejeong’s cologne combined made of the perfect scent as Heejeong’s coolness and the spice of Heeseung’s warmth made up for a pleasant combination. 

His touch was stirring something inside you, but who could possibly blame you? Both men were attractive, smart, successful, and kind. The fact that you were becoming their stepsister was a huge bonus considering they were extra nice to you. 

Far too….nice…..

Gently rubbing his fingertips along your skin, swaying them back and forth, he snaps you out of your dazed state as his tranquil voice hits you like a ton of bricks. It was too calm, almost sentimental….personal….and even sensual. 

“Hmm? Sis? You still thinking about what it is…..we can get you?” His toothy grin transitions to a subtle closed mouth smirk as his narrow eyes widened just a tad, staring right into the depths of your soul through your own peepers. 

“Umm….should we get Indian food?”

Smiling once more, Heeseung nods, as did Heejeong. 

“That sounds good, Indian food it is! We know a really good spot.” Heejeong remarks as he steers the wheel effortlessly with one hand, while resting his chin in his palm, elbow propped against the window.

……….

The boys didn’t lie, they did know of a good spot. You would have never had thought to try out the street food vendors, but once they introduced you to one, ran by a friendly couple that hailed from the beautiful lands of India, you were amazed at just how sensational the food was. 

“Do you know what you want? We can order for you if you like?”

“Yeah, I’d like that.” 

“Oh I know you will…”

Smirking while speaking lowly, staring while you gazed at the menu hoisted right under the canopy of the food stall, you didn’t catch his response. 

“Hmm? Sorry did you say something?”

“Nah, just speaking aloud while reading the menu.” He chuckles as he smiles down at you. His smile, it was so dashing with the way he peered down from his height, scoffing just a tad bit of that smooth and mellow voice as he swipes his tongue over the top row of his teeth. He looked so smooth and handsome, yet bashful at the same time. 

“You guys ready?” Heejeong looks back with the same smile, reaching out to you and Heeseung. You both walk up to meet with him at the window, where he continued to dash a devilish smile as he faintly bites down on his bottom lip. 

“Yeah, we’re ready. Just get Y/n the same as us.” 

“You got it.” Heejeong responds handsomely as he turns back to the gentleman at the window and places the order. 

The three of you chose a double benched, picnic table where you sat right next to Heejeong and across from Heeseung.

The owner of the food vendor stall brought out the dishes that Heejeong and Heeseung recommended. The smell was delightful, not to mention, it was a dish that brought you a sense of nostalgia, as you recognize the ingredients. It was a traditional dish that you were fond of, but it had been so long since you last had it.  

Chole Kulche, your favorite.

“Do you know what this is?” Heeseung raised a brow and looked at you with an admiring gaze, watching as you looked at the dish.

“Yeah…yeah I do.” You nodded slightly as you faintly chuckled. It was a dish that you enjoyed immensely and had brought out your love for Indian food to begin with.

Chuckling, Heeseung rests his chin in his palm as he props his elbow next to his plate. "Hmm...then tell me princess…what’s the name of it?” he teasingly asks, testing the accuracy of your knowledge and honesty in a playful and flirtatious manner.

“Chole Kulche.” You chuckled back.

Smiling, he maintained sitting upright in his posture while his chin rested against his palm, blinking with satisfaction. “Good girl…you even know how to pronounce it correctly.” He finishes and he winks at you.

The three of you dined and enjoyed the evening with laughter, just like always, with every meal. They kept you entertained with stories of their childhood, which revealed the development of their close bond as they shared their most valuable moments together, which had always reflected the both of them relying on one another as each other’s backbone. You couldn’t deny it, it had made you a bit jealous seeing as you lacked that sibling bond growing up.

“Are you excited for the wedding?” Heeseung asked as he sips out of his cup, his eyes lingering on you while he raises his brows.

“Yeah I’m pretty excited….its good for my mom that she found your guys dad. I was starting to get a little worried since she had been without any companionship for a while.” You remarked seldomly, taking note of the solid gaze that the brothers issued to one another at the mentioning of your mother being with their father, Danny.

You didn’t know what to make of the look, but it didn’t seem to be one of pleasant value, considering it was a stern and dissatisfying look. So much, that it propelled you to return the question right back.

“What about you guys?”

Heeseung looks down at his plate and smirks, while Heejeong spoke for the both of them.  “We are thrilled to have you and your mother apart of the family.”

Leaving it at that simple statement, you watched as the two went silent and focused on eating, which left you nodding and not pushing for any more questions, you had sensed that you were breaching a sour subject since it was no secret that they had a troubling bond with their father, that was made evident since the first dinner you had with them. Yet you didn’t know why since their father, Danny, had seemed like a jewel, he was nice to your mother and very caring towards you as a father would be to his own daughter.

You had wondered if they had harbored some sort of grudge, perhaps it had something to do with the divorce of their parents, which you had wondered about but never brought up, and from the looks of it, it was best not to. From experience, you knew that divorce between is never easy to handle, especially for a child, much less two siblings.

“Oh, um…how are Yeon Jin and Sa-ra doing?” You asked, changing the subject rather abruptly, breaking the silent awkwardness.

Both boys looked at you with rather wide eyes, yet their look wasn’t so surprising, just simply stared as if they had no idea what you were referring to until Heeseung finally answered. “They’re good.”

“Are they coming to the wedding?”

“Maybe….we’ll see.” Heeseung takes a bite of his food before grabbing a napkin and wiping his fingers as he takes another glance over towards Heejeong, who faintly, nods.

………..

Once you all had arrived at the house, you opted to go straight to bed, seeing as you had an early morning.

“Good night.”

“Night sweet thing.” Heeseung issues as you walk up the stairs.

“Let us know if you need anything.” Heejeong adds.

With a quick shower, brushing your teeth and changing, you plopped yourself on the bed and sunk into the feeling of being enveloped by the cool silk sheets.

Resting your eyes, your phone vibrates, indicating an incoming text. Gazing at the message that you had just received, you saw that it was from Kurt, who expressed how good it was to see you again.

“…Hmm…I wonder….” You mentally noted as you came up with an idea and messaged back.

…………………………………………………

The morning of the wedding, you aid your mother with her gown and her veil as she takes her bouquet.

“Oh Y/n, you look so pretty, my girl.” Your mother smiles, admiring the simple, floral midi dress you had on. The coloration of fuchsia and violet bounced off the white background of the satin material, it was the perfect dress to adorn for your mother’s wedding, yet you made her swallow her words as you remarked that the beauty, was her.

“Mama, you look so beautiful. I’m so happy for you.”

Walking her over to the alter, behind the grand double doors, you enter through the side as you walk over towards the front row to find your seat, where the boys had already been waiting.

Breaching up, they were seated at the center of the row. Heejeong’s back was facing you, while Heeseung was seated right next to him, facing your direction. Sitting with his legs loosely crossed and his arm resting atop the backing of the seat rest, leaning in as he spoke quietly to Heejeong, you watched as Heeseung suddenly stops his sentence and gawks the very moment he saw you. Heejeong turns and displays the same reaction.

 It was the first they had seen you all morning, much less in that dress that had everyone swooning over you as they watched you walk up, front and center. You couldn’t lie to yourself, the way the two dashing young men noted and stared at you made your heart skip a beat. They looked so dashing with their black suit and tie, it was almost hard to breathe at the sight of them side by side.

Standing up, Heejeong walks over to you as you remained at the edge of the row. Extending a hand out to you, you gently hold on as he greets you with a flashing smile.

“Well hello there, don’t you look pretty today.”

Leading you to the center of the row, he seats you in the center, right in between him and Heeseung, where your back was met with the latter’s arm as it remained in place atop the back rest.

“Hi.” He flirtatiously issues as he flashes a grin.

“Hi.” You chuckled back and fluttered your eyelashes. You couldn’t help but respond back in a flirtatious manner, the boy had it coming, yet you figured some harmless and minor teasing wouldn’t be too bad, so long as it remained within limitations considering that you were now family, despite not related by blood.

Taking a deep inhale of your perfume, Heeseung slightly groans as he finally exhales out. “You look soooo….beautiful.” His eyes trail down and sets home on your exposed thighs as your dress slightly rides up from your seated stance.

“Thank you. You both look very handsome; I like your suits.” You chuckled as you set your gaze at the podium where the priest was preparing for the ceremony.  

During the ceremony, everyone admired at how beautiful your mother looked with her white gown, and Danny standing across, genuinely smiling in bleak happiness. As they took their vows, you noticed how Heejeong and Heeseung both smiled in your direction. Releasing a chuckle while maintaining your gaze at the bride and groom, you merely used your peripherals to gleam a soft peek at the two boys next to you. Softly placing his hand on your thigh, his thumb gently stroking up and down your skin, Heejeong leans into your ear and whispers, “You would look so pretty in a wedding dress.”

Raising a brow as you gave a nervous smile, you bashfully chuckled quietly as you raised a hand and slightly covered your mouth. It was the most flattering compliment you ever received, too bad it had to come from your stepbrother…at least one of them.

“I don’t think I’d look as pretty as mom though.” You modestly responded back.

“Yeah?.....I beg to differ.” His voice going lower, he whispers right back without missing a beat. His words caused you to look over to him and give a soft smile as your eyes trailed off to the side once you saw his handsome gaze, deeply admiring your face.

Sure, it was obvious to you that your stepbrothers may have thought you were attractive, and they were nice to you, practically at your beck and call if you ever needed them to be, yet still, it was hard to avoid giving in each time they coated you with such kind words. But you knew it was going to have to stop, or at least tone down at some point, and perhaps it will during the banquet….

……………………………

Seated at the beautifully adorned round tables, you noticed the placards resting in front of each chair, drafted in delicate calligraphy were the names of each guest, and just as you had secretly arranged….

“Hey, y/n. I’m finally here, sorry I missed the ceremony, but I’m glad I could make it in now.”

You had invited Kurt, as a manner to introduce him to the family since you had recently decided to give him a chance and accept his offer to begin a relationship.

“Oh no worries, here come and meet my family.” You took him by the hands and brought him over to your mother and Danny first, seeing as your two brothers had excused themselves momentarily from the dining setting and went to the open bar.

“Mom, Danny, this is Kurt. We went to high school together and have recently met up.”

“Oh Kurt! I remember you! My gosh it’s been a while! How are you?” Your mother gasped out as she stood from her seat and greeted Kurt with a welcoming hug.

“I’m good Mrs….um…”

“Lee, it’s Lee.” You whispered.

“Lee! Mrs. Lee.” He laughs out.

“Oh its okay, you can call me *your mom’s name here*. This is Danny, my husband.”

Danny stands and welcomes Kurt with a soft smile and a warm handshake. “It’s so nice to meet you, we’re so glad you could make it.”

“Thank you Sir. Congratulations to you both.” Kurt responds back. Conversing with your mother and Danny, your mother pulls you off to the side faintly and inconspicuously whispers, “are you two dating?” to which you nodded.

“We just started a few days ago, he came back to town and we hit it off really well.” You elaborated as you watched Kurt and Danny converse rather enthusiastically about work and Kurt’s travels.

Walking up were Heeseung and Heejeong. You couldn’t be sure with the frenzy that was crowding around, but it looked as if the two boys had harsh looks on their faces as they took notice of Kurt speaking with Danny.

“Oh gosh….can’t they just let things go for one day and be courteous towards their father? It’s your guy’s wedding day.” You whispered to your mother.

“Shh..I know. Just let it be, Its alright.” Your mother whispers back as she holds your hand and rubs it.

“Boys, come meet Kurt, this is uh....” Danny started, bashfully smiling as he caught himself in a tight spot. Kurt smiled back and extended a hand for a welcoming handshake to Heejeong first.

“Hi there, I’m Kurt.”

Heejeong merely looked down at Kurt’s hand before glaring back up at him….then over to you.

Taking the man’s hand, he shakes it softly, but grips hard. “Nice to meet you, I’m Joey.” Heejeong responds back, faintly smiling.

Kurt remained courteous and a good sport as he extends his hand over to Heeseung, who didn’t look much more pleased than his brother. In fact, the moment Kurt had shifted his hand over, Heeseung had all but then rolled his eyes as he took in Kurt’s introduction with Heejeong.

“Nice to meet you. I’m Kurt.” He says once more, smiling as brightly as ever.

Heeseung’s face was tilted off to the side, slightly leaned back with a flare of rough attitude as his eyes glared in your direction. Rolling his tongue in his mouth, displayed thorugh the slightly parted lips, he takes Kurt by the hand and shakes it while introducing himself.

“Nice to mee you…..I’m Ethan.” His voice just as low, if not, lower than Heejeong’s.

“Wow, twins huh? My cousin just gave birth to twins.” Kurt smiles as he attempts to make small talk with your brothers, who remained stagnant with their strict expressions, barely making eye contact with Kurt, instead, they kept glaring over at you.

You figured they were disappointed that you hadn’t told them about Kurt sooner, though it wasn’t your fault, you had only just began dating him a few days ago, a day after when you had texted him, inviting him to the wedding. The next day you had both went out for coffee after your brothers had dropped you off. Kurt was so very kind that you had felt it would be a missed opportunity if you hadn’t taken up his offer. The moment he held your hand across the table at the café was when you knew that that was the chance to take and begin a relationship anew.

Since there was so much to do in preparations for the nuptials, you spent most of the days helping your mother, leaving you no chance to tell your brothers that you now had a boyfriend. Yet you figured that they would eventually welcome Kurt the more they get to know him, assuming that they were displaying a level of a protective nature as brothers.

“Yeah, so…how do you know y/n? Do you guys work with each other?” Heejeong inquires, glancing a wide eyed look over to you before flashing it back to Kurt.

That look…..it was….

“What the Hell was that?”

You mentally noted the outline of Heejeong’s wide eyes and that rather amusing and yet….eerie look that he had just a second ago as he shifted his sights between you and Kurt.

“Oh well….y/n and I went to high school together a while back. I recently just came back to town and met up with her and….well…we hit it off so we just…you know.” Kurt begins to chuckle as he commits a half turn and glances over to you, smiling.

“….No….I don’t know…..enlighten me.” Heejeong spoke as he crosses his arms.

“Oh, um well…we haven’t made it publicly known yet…but um-“

“We’re dating.” You interjected softly. Crossing your own arms, you issued a stern glance of your own back to your two brothers, who both looked at you unpleasantly with stares of anger and disappointment as their countenance reflected their response to your defiance.

“Oh speaking of which, where is Yeon-jin and Sa-ra?” Danny inquires as he looks over to his twin sons.

“They were busy.” Heeseung remarks, crossing his arms, joining the shared stance that you and Heejeong both committed. A battle of harsh stares was exchanged between the three of you.

“Oh boy….it’s going to be an awkward night at the house….” You noted.

…………………………..

The banquet went along well, aside from you and your brothers hardly speaking to one another, yet that didn’t deter from them looking at you nearly the entire time. Only this time, there were no flashing smiles, no chuckles, no affectionate display of gentleness or humor.

“You want a ride home?” Kurt asks.

“Yeah that’ll be nice.” You respond back, not even caring to glance over to your two new brothers.

……………

“They’ll get over it. I can understand being so protective, but this is absurd.”

……………

Dropping you off, you leaned over for a hug, unexpectedly, Kurt places a soft and quick kiss on your lips. Shocked, you chuckled as he bashfully stares at the steering wheel.

“Sorry….I just…I don’t know…” he laughs.

“It’s okay….” You bit your lip as you chuckled once more. Leaning in, you whispered out. “Should we try again?”

Meeting you halfway, your faces reunite in a gentle motion. He kisses you passionately as he reaches up and cups your face as you rest your elbow on the center console.

“See you tomorrow?” He asks.

“Sure.”  You smiled as you tapped his chin.

Bidding goodbye, you walked into the house. All the lights were off, signifying the boys were asleep in their rooms, which gave you a sense of relief, since you three had split from the wedding banquet in extreme awkwardness, not even saying goodbye to each other. As you walked upstairs, you revisited the idea of possibly looking for your own place, seeing as the boys may present an issue if they don’t check their attitudes in regards to you dating Kurt. You’re a grown woman, how could they not be realistic about you dating? You could understand about them being slightly concerned, yet you knew Kurt for years, not to mention their attitude was uncalled for. Fortunately, it didn’t seem to bother Kurt, or perhaps he didn’t take notice, if he did, he was at least a good sport about it and never mentioned it to you.

Quietly entering your bedroom, you tossed your jacket on the lounge chair and began to unbuckle your heels.

“So…”

Your breath hitched as you turned around to the deep voice that emerged from behind, it was Heeseung. Standing by the door, camouflaged in the shadows as he was still wearing his suit from the wedding, he propped himself against the wall with his arms crossed, only the sliver sheen of light from outside peering through the window, provided the source of light for you to make out just a tad bit of his frame and face.

“Wh-what are you doing?....” you asked, still recovering from the shocked fright he gave you.

“What does it look like I’m doing?”

His attitude irked you, so much that you decided enough was enough.

“Heeseung….what’s your guys deal? I get it we’re family now, but….I’m a grown woman. With that being said, I’m going to start looking for my own place because this is getting out of hand-“

Cutting you off, his sharp tone inhibited you from finishing your thought.

“Come again?....”

“….I said I’m going to be moving out….and that you both need to not act the way you did earlier….”

“Oooh yes….lets talk about that.” Straightening his posture, he uses his foot to push his frame off the wall as he starts walking towards you, with his arms remaining crossed, he leans in….closely, the light glaring through the window closest to you permitted the sight of his face, which had a smirk….but it was far from dashing or handsome, it was rather crazy, sadistic even…..it was twisted and frightening.

“Lets talk….about today…..hmm?.....Princess?”

“…Don’t….dont call me that….in fact, stop with these pet names…”

“Awww…..that right?....BABY?”

Feeling a sudden grab and tug, you felt his hands wrap around your wrist harshly as he pulls you against his body.

“Wh-what are you doing?! Stop!”

“Nuh-uh. Come here, we need to have a little talk, you and I.”

“Stop! Heeseung let go!”

Plastering your frame against his body, he grabs onto your waist and starts to nuzzle his face against the nook of your neck, causing you to gasp as you jumped up from the shocking sensation of his lips sucking on to your skin. Your reaction…didn’t work in your favor, as it allowed him to gain more leverage in pulling you in, leaving no gap between your bodies.

“Stop! Please stop! Stop…l-let go!”

Groaning against your skin, his arm wrapped around you lower back while his hand cuffs your wrist and pins it behind your back, causing your arm to take a bend at the elbow, leaving only your weak arm free to push him away, yet your measly attempts did nothing but pleasantly antagonize him.

“Shhh….come here…..COME HERE.”

Keeping your wrist pinned to your back, he swoops his hand under your thigh and lifts it, fixing it to the hilt of his hip, using brute strength to levitate your body while he simultaneously sits down on the lounge chair, forcing you to sit on his lap, straddling him as he feeds your legs through the loop holes of chair, under the arm rests.

“There….that’s better…..” he calmly speaks against your throat as he brushes his nose upwards, causing you to tilt your head back, exposing your entire neckline.

“Stop! This is wrong! You’re insane, get off!”

Gasping out a breath against the center of your neck, his parted lips gently brushing aginst your skin as he answers.

“Don’t be like that…..haven’t I shown you kindness and affection?....Haven’t I shown just how much I ADORE you?”

“Stop! Let go! There’s something wrong with you!”

“Those are some pretty strong words princess…..are we fighting? Hmm? Tell me…..” placing a hand on your hip, he starts to motion your body to grind against his crotch as he whispers out the last bit. “Are we fighting?”

Kissing your neck and your chest, he takes advantage of the slight plunging neckline your dress displayed and licks the surface of your cleavage. It all felt so….

“Yeah? You like that don’t you? Wanna moan some more?” rubbing your wrist with his thumb, he maintains his hold on you, keeping your strong arm restrained as he increases the momentum of your movements, steering you to move back and forth, up and down, and in circular motions.

“Tell me baby….since we’re fighting…tell me what I gotta do to fix it…tell me.” 

Kissing your neck, moving your hips, whispering his dark and deep tone against your neck, sending the vibrations of his vocal chords to travel all the way down to your gut, you whimpered out as the sensual feeling of his harden member pressing against your core, barely covered by the thin fabric of your panties, was starting to create a euphoric friction that you couldn’t help but surrender to.

“Come on baby…tell me what I gotta do to fix it….so we can get along…”

Rubbing his hands and massaging them on your waistline, he finally releases your strong arm, only it was too late….for you.

Already too deep in, your body yearned and craved more, yet your mind remained strong.

“S-stop……oh God please…..stop.”

“No princess….dont think I will……I don’t think you want me to…..that’s okay because that’s what I’m here for…..”

Raising the hem of our dress up, pulling your straps down, he rolls the material of your slinky dress to collect around your waist as he exposes as much of your body as he possibly could. Loosening his tie, he uses one hand to start unbuttoning his shirt, all the while his other hand kept steering your motions at the hip.

“Boyfriend hasn’t touched you yet…has he?” he whispers against your skin. “I can tell…its obvious its been a while since you’ve had it…..”

Kissing your lips, you felt yourself melting into him as his hands kept roaming. He pulled, dipped, pushed, and rolled your hips into motions that the depths of the ocean couldn’t compare to. Succumbing to the overwhelming pleasures of your body uniting with his, you moaned out in shaking pleasure, while speaking the words that still lingered in your mind, though it was barely there as you felt yourself losing after a sensational rush of moisture gushes out from your walls, your clit throbbing with desire. Still...you gave it your last shot....

“Oh my God…please….please don’t….mmm...Heeseung.....ugh.”

“Come on baby….lets get along....hm?..…..let me beat it up and kiss it better for you....let me say sorry to it with my tongue. Let me fix it for you.” releasing a prolonged sigh against your skin, he chuckles out a low and dark tone, as he spoke out again....

“Let me fix it."

Knock knock, KaiOS.

The ephemeral taste of innovating nearly obsolete bricks might be reaching its inevitable demise.

Despite the recent boom of feature phone sales over digital minimalism and dopamine detox trends, the future for KaiOS remains bleak as they fail to be consistent with their promises, thus miserably lagging against established giants in the market.

The good start

KaiOS is a partially open-source operating system developed by the Hong Kong-based company, KaiOS Technologies Inc. It was initially released in October 2017 and was forked from Boot 2 Gecko. Their name is from the Chinese for open – 开 (kāi) which “captures the idea of being inclusive.”

In just one year, they have overtaken Apple’s iOS as the second most popular operating system in India, with Android remaining on top, despite losing their 9% market share. In that same timeframe as well, they managed to sell around 450 million devices worldwide. Furthermore, their platform is compatible to WhatsApp, Twitter, YouTube, Google Maps, and Google Assistant.

To oversimplify things, KaiOS took the Boot 2 Gecko code (based from FirefoxOS) and modified it to run on hardware similar to that of feature phones and added the KaiOS Store. Other than that, they also implemented recent innovations that are becoming today’s standard, like 4G LTE and 5G, GPS, and Wi-Fi. By doing so, they effectively just created a separate phone segment, which some people call as the quasi-smartphones or smart feature phones.

KaiOS specifically chose the hardware present in their devices for an appealing approach to developing markets, like India and Pakistan, to bridge the digital divide and bring cheaper internet access. They removed the touch screen which they consider as the most costly part of the device, and replaced it with a cheaper T9 keypad input. Additionally, their devices only need 256MB to work and are also compatible with cost-efficient Spreadtrum chipsets.

What went wrong

By doing so, they effectively avoided the mistakes that Mozilla made. They chose a target audience first and offered them a product. They made an operating system out of the web but used that as a tool rather than the end goal, the latter being their approach to the digital divide. But not all products are perfect on their own, as their approach is a double-edged sword.

The T9 keypad meant that the apps had to be optimized to work on such inputs. Likewise, dissimilar to FirefoxOS, not all webpages can run on KaiOS devices due to hardware restraints. Such disadvantages make it an appealing short-term solution while their users save up for better entry-level Android devices.

Platform immaturity

The platform is still quite immature, despite five years since its initial launch. Some users claimed that their devices sometimes cannot receive calls, and crashes on related functions constantly. The battery also does not live up to its expectations and provides a ‘disappointing’ performance. Additionally, the calendar’s sync and date functionality is unstable, the alarm clock doesn’t ring from time to time, and the lack of note-taking, file browsing, multitasking, and wide audio format support. Besides, the platform lacked proper app quality control, bug reports, and feedback system, along with a slew of advertisements. Perhaps, the most lambasted functionality of the platform is the T9 input. Users characterized the input as slow and unreliable, thus ineffective for efficient user interface navigation. The predictive text input, which might sound good, is something they’d rather have disabled due to its restraints such as inaccurate suggestions and buggy input.

Some have mentioned that users may be over-estimating KaiOS and pitching it against smartphone platforms. Then on, we can’t deny that a platform still has to be stable and reliable, albeit hardware-restricted. Some went on to compare the system to its older counterparts such as Nokia’s Series 40, Microsoft’s Lumia, Vodafone’s MobiWire, and Blackberry’s Blackberry 10, which the users characterized as more ‘stable.’

Unfortunately, version 2.5.4 onwards faced a downward trend as certain apps were no longer maintained and supported, due to the decrease of development activity. For instance, the optimized Google and YouTube apps have been pulled out from the app store, around the same time as the update. In version 3, WhatsApp support has already been dropped and new app submissions to the store also plummeted. Google Assistant, the primary tool for users to voice type and issue commands (albeit stripped-down in comparison to Android), also dropped KaiOS support last June 30, 2021. Some users reached out to the company regarding this matter, to which they replied that they are developing an in-house voice assistant alternative. Until now, it is nowhere near worldwide coverage, given the limited devices it was shipped upon.

The company and its partners

Even more worse, the problem rests beyond that. The project development of has been consistent enough until the COVID-19 pandemic. According to the company’s blog statement “the growth was still not like how we achieved in the pre-COVID times, but these numbers and new partnerships are going up and in the right direction in this second year of the pandemic.”

In 2022, the project updates has since then plummeted. There weren’t any major announcements across all their social media platforms, even from the company website. Their Github repositories are no exception as well, as they still haven’t received any commits until now. Their only active repo is the gecko-b2g, which serves as the operating system base.

It is not implicit that their users are complaining about the bugs and speculating on the project’s downfall but it seems that they have no proper public relations and customer support as the company fails to actively respond to these messages.

Nokia

Nokia, or should we say, HMD Global has been a primary partner of KaiOS Technologies over the years. They manufactured the higher-end devices of the platform that were considerably the most popular in KaiOS’ lineup, such as the Nokia 6300 4G, Nokia 2780 Flip, and the Nokia 8110 4G.

Regardless, their approach is somehow vague as enthusiasts are confused over what their target audience is supposed to be, and what were they trying in the first place. Their approach started with the reboot of their classic devices, so it’s safe to assume that their target consumers are the ones who are nostalgic over their retro bricks. HMD, for a matter of fact, might have just been the worst example of a KaiOS partner.

Their devices are the most expensive ones of the platform, almost close to the entry-level Android Go smartphones. HMD Global has also been long criticized over the failure to deliver software updates from KaiOS to their devices, as they provide only about a year of support for these. The users also cannot help to complain over the significant bloatware present in such a limited hardware they provide.

Just recently, HMD Global took a step back from this approach and cherished their barebones Series 30 and Series 30+ platforms once again. Their last KaiOS device is the 2780 Flip from November 2022 and was then on followed by a series of Android Go and dumbphones from their C and 1xx series. In a reply to a user inquiry, they reportedly blamed KaiOS as the Google Assistant support for the platform was dropped.

Alcatel and TCL

Alcatel and TCL are also major partners of KaiOS. In fact, TCL Corporation is the largest shareholder of KaiOS Technologies. Both of them are popular for their Go Flip line. Despite the successes of Go Flip 1, 2, 3, and V, they didn’t get to experience the luxury of getting updated to the latest version of the OS, unlike the Go Flip 4. A user reached out to the company, to which they replied that they are still planning to serve these said updates to such devices, although there is still no update to talk of until now. 

Unfortunately, similar to HMD Global, they seem to be diverging away from the platform as recent releases from both manufacturers are focused on midrange to high-end Android devices, as well as the Tab series of TCL.

Jio

The Indian telecommunications company, Reliance Jio Infocomm Limited is the catalyst of KaiOS’ takeover against Apple in the country, all thanks to their aggressive marketing approach. They offered the competitively priced JioPhone for free to their users who are subscribed to their data plans.

Unluckily, even Jio is also straying away from KaiOS. There have been rumors that the JioPhone and the JioPhone 2 have been discontinued, as they are no longer sold. They last received the version 0258 update back on May 22, 2021, and clearly missed version 3.0 by a long shot. On June 24, 2021, Reliance Jio announced the JioPhone Next, a budget Android Go smartphone made in collaboration with Google. Recently this year, they partnered with Karbonn to release the Jio Bharat K1 Karbonn and V2 to provide access to UPI payments, Jio ecosystem, and cheaper 4G to the rural areas of India that remain untapped by recent advancements in technology.

What happened?

Fast forward to August 2023, users speculate that the project has already died out due to lack of activity and stagnation since the release of 3.0. Their company's social media platforms are inactive, except for the usual, seemingly AI-generated content every national holiday across countries. On the other hand, KaiOS Technologies partnered with the cybersecurity firm Trustonic to expand their device affordability efforts in Africa. There have also been infrequent new device releases for the platform, such as the AT&T Cingular Flex in February, Cricket Debut Flex in June, and Logan Technology’s Panita this August. Truth be told, I find this section rather short and lacking. Unfortunately, I could say the same for the company’s recent efforts. Nonetheless, I hope that things eventually get better. As users worldwide expected a reliable feature phone platform, all these issues contributed to a downward trend of interest for KaiOS. It seems that they might end up like FirefoxOS, failing to keep up and desolate in the past. Whether they wake up to innovate again, or continue dormant and inevitably die out is up for them to decide.

For now, one thing’s for sure, if they fail to address these issues, they’ll be no better than the obsolete bricks of the bygone era.

From Blueprint to Reality: How AI is Transforming the Construction Process

In recent years, Artificial Intelligence (AI) has revolutionized industries across the globe, and the construction sector is no exception. What was once a slow and labor-intensive process is now becoming more efficient, precise, and innovative, thanks to AI. From the initial blueprint to the final structure, AI is transforming how buildings are designed, constructed, and maintained. Many colleges for architecture in India are also incorporating AI-driven tools in their curriculum to prepare the next generation of architects for this shift. Let’s explore how AI is streamlining the construction process, making it faster, safer, and more cost-effective.

AI in Design and Planning

At the start of every construction project, there’s a design and planning phase. This crucial step determines the project’s structure, layout, and cost. Traditionally, it’s a time-consuming process, requiring multiple revisions and intense collaboration. AI, however, is speeding things up. With AI-driven design tools, architects can input constraints such as budget, materials, and environmental factors, and the software generates optimized blueprints almost instantly. These tools offer creative solutions that might not be obvious to human designers, allowing for innovative building designs that maximize space and efficiency.

Automation on the Job Site

When it comes to construction, AI isn’t just behind a computer screen—it’s on-site, too. Automated machinery, powered by AI, is taking over repetitive and labor-intensive tasks. For example, bricklaying robots can place thousands of bricks per day with incredible precision, reducing human error and increasing speed. These AI-powered machines can work longer hours without tiring, helping to complete projects faster and with fewer workers. This doesn’t mean humans are out of the picture, but it allows skilled workers to focus on more complex tasks, improving overall site productivity.

Smarter Project Management

Managing a construction project involves juggling a lot of moving parts—schedules, materials, workers, and budgets. AI is helping project managers stay on top of these details by using predictive analytics to foresee potential delays or cost overruns. By analyzing historical data, AI can make informed predictions about project timelines and resource needs, ensuring projects stay on track. If problems arise, AI can automatically adjust schedules or recommend solutions, minimizing disruptions and keeping everything running smoothly.

Enhancing Safety on Construction Sites

Construction sites can be dangerous, with risks ranging from machinery accidents to falling debris. AI is making these environments safer. Drones equipped with AI can monitor job sites in real-time, checking for safety violations and hazards. AI systems can analyze data from past accidents and predict future risks, allowing site managers to take preventive action before problems occur. This proactive approach is reducing accidents and improving overall safety for workers.

Predictive Maintenance and Building Management

Even after a building is completed, AI continues to play a vital role. Smart buildings equipped with AI systems can monitor their own condition, flagging any potential issues such as structural weaknesses or faulty systems. This predictive maintenance allows building owners to address problems before they become major repairs, saving time and money in the long run. Additionally, AI can help manage a building’s energy usage, automatically adjusting heating, lighting, and ventilation based on occupancy, further reducing operational costs.

Promoting Sustainability in Construction

Sustainability is a growing priority in construction, and AI is helping the industry go green. By analyzing data on materials and construction methods, AI can suggest environmentally friendly alternatives that reduce waste and carbon emissions. AI also helps architects design energy-efficient buildings that use resources more sustainably, creating structures that have a lower environmental impact from start to finish.

The Future of AI in Construction

As AI continues to advance, its role in construction will only grow. In the near future, we might see fully automated construction sites where robots and AI-driven machines handle most of the physical labor, supervised by humans who manage the more complex decision-making tasks. AI will also enhance collaboration, providing real-time updates and insights to all stakeholders involved, improving transparency and communication throughout the project lifecycle.

Conclusion

AI is changing the construction industry in profound ways, from speeding up design processes to making job sites safer and more efficient. By automating repetitive tasks, optimizing project management, and promoting sustainability, AI is helping to bring construction into the future. While the industry will always need the human touch, AI is playing an essential role in turning blueprints into reality faster and smarter than ever before. As technology continues to evolve, the possibilities for innovation in construction are endless, paving the way for smarter, safer, and more sustainable building practices. Educational institutions like Anna University affiliated colleges in Chennai are preparing future professionals by integrating AI and cutting-edge technologies into their architecture programs, ensuring students are equipped for the evolving industry

Evolution of the Building Material Industry

Increasing urbanisation and infrastructure upgradation complemented by the growing population is shaping India’s construction industry.  The construction and building materials industry in India is valued at $240 billion in 2023. The industry demonstrated significant growth of over 8-10% in the last three years following the pandemic recovery. Given the evolving demand dynamics, the industry is expected to sustain the momentum in the coming years.

Read this blog post to understand the evolution of  building materials and its growth prospects.

Evolution of the building materials industry in India

Traditionally, buildings were constructed using naturally available materials like mud, clay, stone, etc. In the 18th century, with British colonisation, the construction and building materials industry in India underwent a significant revolution to use modern materials like steel, cement, glass, bricks, etc.

In the post-independence period, rapid urbanisation increased the demand for modern construction and building materials. The liberalisation efforts in the '90s lead to the introduction of advanced materials like ready-mix concrete, pre-fabricated structures, fly ash bricks, and so on.

In the last decade, there has been a greater emphasis on sustainability. Consumers prefer eco-friendly construction materials to minimise the carbon footprint of the construction industry.

Latest trends in the building materials industry

Here are the evolving trends that reshape building construction materials manufacturing.

Rise in demand for high-quality, premium materials

With the increase in standards of living and disposable income, consumers are demanding high-quality construction and building materials. As a result, leading building materials suppliers are investing in advanced technologies that drive precise manufacturing.

As a result, leading building materials companies like Aparna Enterprises Limited (AEL) are invested in manufacturing materials that are resistant to extreme weather conditions, whether it is scorching heat, heavy rains, or high-speed winds.

Low maintenance needs

As people live in a fast-paced world, they prefer materials that have lower maintenance needs. For instance, when it comes to windows and doors, people prefer aluminium or uPVC as they are resistant to corrosion, dust, wear and tear. They do not fade out quickly and remain fresh and new for long. This minimises the need for frequent maintenance.

Higher degree of customisation

The choices that people make for their homes and commercial spaces are considered a reflection of their individual or business persona. So, they look for a greater degree of customisation when it comes to size, colour, style, design, texture, finish, etc. The innovative patterns allow for customised interior and exterior designs.

Sustainable, eco-friendly materials

With increasing awareness of climate change and growing emissions, there is a demand for environment-friendly materials. People look for recyclable, less harmful materials to minimise waste.

Also, there is a demand for energy-efficient building construction materials. Using materials like facades, sliding windows, etc. allows natural light to pass through. Similarly, uPVC offers high thermal insulation which in turn minimises the need for external heating and cooling. This reduces the electricity bills and energy costs. Construction materials suppliers like Aparna Enterprises Limited , are prioritising smart materials that help achieve greater energy efficiency in buildings.

Pre-fabricated designs

There is a growing preference for modular construction and pre-fabricated designs as they help minimise construction time on site. As they are manufactured off-site, they support quick project completion. They are precise and more accurate as the building materials manufacturer produce such designs in a well-organised, controlled environment.

Modular designs have greater flexibility and customisation ability as they come in a broad range of designs and layouts. For example, with a modular kitchen, the modules can be organised in different ways to match the unique needs of the space.

Innovative design can help newspapers get young readers on board

In a previous article, Indian Printer and Publisher had interacted with the lead designers of Hindustan Times, The Indian Express, The Hindu, which won accolades along with Deccan Herald and Malayala Manorama at the 6th International Newspaper Design Competition awards announced recently.

Part one focused on the award-winning designs. In this article, Anup Gupta of Hindustan Times, Kannan Sundar from The Hindu and Bivash Barua from The Indian Express discuss the road ahead for newspaper design and the challenges in getting younger readers on board.

Attracting younger audiences

Newspapers can attract young readers by ditching the cluttered layouts favored by some papers and instead focusing on clean, functional design, Barua shared. “Young people today are smart and used to the intuitive interfaces of their favorite websites and apps. They expect the same from their news sources. A functional design makes it easy for them to find the news they want quickly and avoid information overload,” he added.

The line between ‘design’ and ‘decoration’ is very thin, and risks being breached easily to make a page ‘attractive,’ Gupta said, adding that, however, while it may look good, such a page will not address the elephant in the room. “Content, for any audience, young or old, will always remain the king. Once the content is in place, design should come in to create layers to enable the audience to access it simply, absorb it easily, and process the content completely, to walk away feeling satiated,” he said. 

A good design, therefore, hums quietly alongside the content, enveloping the audience in its embrace whilst creating space for the content to bloom, he revealed.

“With many young people consuming news on their smartphones and tablets, we understand the importance of mobile optimization. Our designs draw inspiration from UI and UX principles for mobile devices, ensuring a seamless transition from digital to print,” Sundar said. By prioritizing visual appeal, interactivity, mobile optimization, personalization, and inclusivity, we aim to create engaging and relevant content experiences that resonate with the next generation of readers, he added.

Future of newspaper design

“Over centuries, as and when a new technology comes on the horizon, there is some disruption. But then the theory propagated by Bruce A Tuckman in the early 1960s — FORM, STORM, NORM, PERFORM, comes into play, and after some disruption, eventually, things settle down. The digital and the brick-and-mortar world will eventually coexist, and I believe it will be just fine,” Gupta explained.

So, seeing the future through Mr Tuckman’s lens, when new tech is ‘formed’ (developed), and it creates a ‘storm’, new ‘norms’ will be established that will help everyone ‘perform,’ he said, adding that newspapers will see some change, but it will be for the better. The future of newspapers is safe if we embrace new ways of storytelling and reach out to satisfy the needs of our audiences.

While both digital and print design share core principles and goals, a key difference lies in how they capture user attention, shared Barua, adding digital products aims to engage users quickly, while print design needs to hold a reader's interest for a longer duration. This doesn't negate the importance of print. In India, for instance, newspapers remain a powerful medium, and effective design will be crucial for their continued success, he added.

In the digital era, newspapers are undergoing significant transformation to meet the evolving needs of readers, according to Sundar. “We're seeing a shift towards mobile optimization as more people consume news on smartphones and tablets. This means our designs must prioritize mobile-friendly layouts to ensure seamless reading experiences on smaller screens.”

Data visualization plays a crucial role in helping readers understand complex information, Sundar shared. “Expect to see more charts, maps, and infographics that make data more digestible and engaging.”

“User engagement is another focus. We are creating opportunities for readers to participate in the news through interactive features, community forums, and user-generated content. And of course, we are integrating with social media and digital platforms to reach and engage audiences where they are. Seamless sharing of content, live updates, and real-time interactions with readers are all part of our digital strategy. Overall, the future of newspaper design is all about innovation, interactivity, and delivering personalized, engaging, and accessible content experiences across multiple platforms and devices, Sundar added.

“Standing out in a digital world is a must. Newspapers compete with the constant stream of attention-grabbing content online. Design plays a critical role in capturing the reader's interest and holding it against the endless scroll of the web,” Barua shared.

Challenges in newspaper design

Creating newspaper designs presents a myriad of challenges, Sundar said, adding that as design editors, they are tasked with navigating the delicate balance between tradition and innovation. “We must seamlessly blend new features with familiar elements to keep our readers engaged. Adapting to ever-evolving technologies is a must, requiring us to continuously learn and adjust our approach,” he added.

Newspaper designers face a balancing act, Barua said, adding they must juggle various elements such as stories, photos, and ads, all while ensuring the layout is clear and easy to read. This constant optimization is crucial for a newspaper's success.

Finding the sweet spot between familiar and fresh is another challenge. Readers expect a comfortable level of recognition in a newspaper's design, but a stagnant look can quickly lose their interest. Designers must strike a balance between maintaining a recognizable format and introducing new ideas to keep things engaging, Barua shared.

Especially for breaking news, designers need to work efficiently to create impactful layouts under the gun. This fast-paced environment requires sharp design skills and the ability to think on their feet, Barua added

“Tight deadlines are a constant in our industry, pushing us to work swiftly without sacrificing quality. Designing for both print and digital formats adds another layer of complexity, demanding different skills and considerations. Catering to diverse audiences with varying preferences and habits requires careful thought and planning. Space constraints in newspapers force us to prioritize content and use layouts efficiently,” Sundar shared.

Accessibility is non-negotiable – we must ensure that all readers can access and enjoy our content, Sundar said, adding that balancing editorial content with advertising while maintaining an engaging user experience is not easy. “Additionally, we face stiff competition from digital media, requiring us to stand out with compelling and differentiated design. To overcome these challenges, we rely on creativity, adaptability, and collaboration with our editorial teams and readers,” he added.

“To be honest, designing newspapers was, is, and will always remain exciting, however with a difference. With digital penetration being what it is, and increasing, designers will have to understand the nature of the usage better, to create design systems that deliver on every use case, across mediums and platforms without compromising the brand’s identity,” Gupta shared.

Designers will have to build stronger abilities to visualize stories and create solutions that are native to the platform, and create music, seamlessly, allowing the content to bloom, he said. A quick glance around the world shows how we can see some titles (and professionals) that have adapted and adopted, have survived and some have even done well. The rest, however, have withered away, and many have even been laid to rest, Gupta concluded.
