Line : An Asian Messaging giant, which has built a substantial business selling stickers and in-app games purchases to an engaged multi-million strong user-base of its free core app, has finally released a dedicated iPad app. It already had a desktop client, and multiple smartphone apps.

Last week the company also finally revealed details of the active monthly user count for its messaging service — pegging MAUs at around 170 million, with its registered users numbering 560 million. The core messaging service is free. Line monetizes via in-app purchases such as the aforementioned stickers.

The Line iPad app is described as a “sub-device” for the smartphone version, so it’s not possible to create new Line accounts on the iPad. Rather the idea is to allow existing Line users to get access to their friend lists and previously purchased stickers when using Apple’s tablet.

The app is not as fully featured as Line on smartphones. At launch, Line for iPad is pure-play messaging only, so there’s no support for voice or video calls yet. But images, videos and voice messages can be shared within text chats. Line says it intends to add more features to the app in time.

The app requires iPads running iOS 7 or above. Some 16 languages are supported at launch, with Line dubbing it a global iPad app. Expanding onto another device type expands Line’s reach, while seeking to make the most of the larger screened iPads to amp up Line’s appeal in multitasking scenarios.

Line is aggressively lining up new product launches to bolt onto its messaging platform, with a raft of planned launches slated for winter 2014 including Line Pay, to support making payments via its app or sending money to other Line users; Line Taxi, which looks like an Uber style on-demand ride hailing service but partnering with national taxi companies, starting in Japan; the soft launch of Line Wow, an on-demand food delivery service, again in partnership with an existing company; Line Maps for Indoors, targeting navigation in commercial facilities such as shopping malls, again starting in Japan; and Line Music, a subscription streaming service.

Happy to stay indoors in this torrid heat? Well, here’s a good reason to step out: your body needs the daily dose of vitamin D that comes from exposure to the sun. Seven out of every 10 Indians are estimated to be at risk from D-deficiency -a curious statistic for a tropical country that gets plenty of sun through the year.

GO FOR SOME SKIN SHOW

Doctors say one reason for this is our darker skin tone. The vitamin D present in the skin gets ac present in the skin gets activated when the sun’s rays fall on us. The more the melanin, the less the production of vitamin D by the skin. Other factors are excessive use of sunscreen and increasingly indoor lifestyles. “So many people now work the graveyard shift; people are relying on closed modes of transport like cabs, cars and the metro… all these reduce exposure to the sun,“ says Dr Yuvraj Kumar, head of orthospaedics at Asian Institute of c Medical Sciences, Faridabad. i The vegetarian diet, staple of t many Indians, is also a contributing factor, he adds.Meats, eggs and fish oils are F rich vitamin D sources.

SLOWDOWN FACTOR

Symptoms of D-deficiency s include fatigue, general pain e in weight-bearing areas, lack r of sleep and loss of ap petite. K K Singhal, 64, had been experiencing these problems after retirement. “I used to go for a walk only in the evening and wasn’t getting enough sun exposure.

My doctor also told me that after 50 the risk of deficiency is higher as the skin does not make as much vitamin D and the kidneys (crucial for metabolizing the vitamin) also slow down,“ says the Delhi-based senior citizen. Singhal has been taking vitamin supplements for three months now and re ports better health.

FACTS OF D MATTER

The vitamin helps in absorption of calcium and phosphorus, both crucial for strong bones and teeth. The earliest evidence of this was recorded some 300 years ago by physicians treating rickets in children.

Recent studies have also linked it to a host of other problems such as heart dis ease, diabetes and i n f e r t i l i t y. A 30-year-long study that monitored 10,000 Finnish children from birth to adulthood found that those who had been given vitamin D supplements during in fancy had a nearly 90% lower risk of developing type 1 diabetes. And a 2008 study of 50,000 men by the nutrition department of Harvard School of Pub lic Health found that the risk of heart attack doubled in men with D-deficiency .

However, doc tors remain cautious, maintaining that the linkage between vitamin D and bone health is the only one that’s well established. “What we know is that it helps in building strong bones and muscles and having healthy teeth and nails,“ says Dr Rajeev Thukral, senior orthopaedic consultant at Delhi’s Max Super Specialty Hospital.

RX FOR D

You can find out your vitamin D levels by doing a blood test that costs around Rs 3,000. A healthy Indian adult needs 400 IU of the vitamin daily, ac cording to the Indian Council of Medical Research. This can be achieved with a 30-minute walk in the morning.

For individuals deficient in vitamin D, Dr Thukral recommends 40-45 minutes of walk in the sun, “ideally with out wearing a cap hat and sunscreen“. “Taking a vitamin D tablet once every week for a couple of years will also help in restoring it to healthy levels,“ he adds. It’s best to take vitamin supplements under medical supervision.
