Android N at a glance.
Android 'N' is upcoming Android Update. Google have added so many great features to this new release. Lets see whats new in this release.
Yesterday, My girlfriend was asking about newly announced, latest
android release 'Android N'. So here I am writing answer for her but you
can carry on also. The preview of the Android 7.0 known as Android N is
out now for Google Nexus devices for testing purpose. As expected this
release have amazing features and this going to be massive. It seems
that it will available in market at the end of July 2016.
The most noticeable feature of Android N is Multi-Window Mode. iOS 9 have this feature but it is limited for iPad.
Lets see what Google thinks about this feature.
We have seen this feature in many Samsung mobiles, specially in Galaxy Note series. But now Google officially included this feature in this latest release.
To use this feature in Android N, you have to open an app and long press on overview button.
You can use the divider to adjust the screen size available for each app.
Google cares so much about their users. Now a days the cellular data costs so much and may expensive for some users. To resolve this issue at some instance they have introduced a new feature called 'Data Saver'. This feature when enabled, reduces data uses by blocking background data.
The appearance of quick setting panels is same as Android M, but Android N have more room for quick setting tiles. Also user can swipe left-right to access remaining tiles.
Users can now reply to messages directly over the notification panel. That means there is no need to open the messaging app to reply.
As Android N is still in developer preview, we have to wait little more.
