Split Screen
The new tool screen split would make Android was put up to the Apple iPad, Samsung and Windows, giving customers the ability to view multiple applications on the same screen.
Google said it would allow the application video playback to continue operating while the person opens a different application. For example, you could continue watching a video on YouTube while you open your application Gmail to answer an email
For a long time, Samsung (which makes phones and tablets with Android) has given its customers. ability to open applications on a split screen. However, there was an additional function, so people who had Android Samsung devices were lost fun in multiple windows.
Notifications
the Android N users can respond to messages from notifications. So, if you receive a text message, you can select “reply” right on the notification and start writing without opening the messaging application.
The interactive notifications have been a feature of Android for years, although they were limited to actions such as play, pause or delete. Unlike iOS, Android in general has not allowed people typed something in a notification.
The Hangouts application of Google now allows customers to respond from a notification of Android, but still need a window emergent. Android N will expand a little window notification to include a text box.
The Android N also include “Grouped notifications”, which all notifications of one application will be presented in a row.
customers can expand these notifications with a movement of two fingers or tapping the back button to expand.
Efficiency battery
in the current version of Android, Google included a feature called “Doze” which puts a deep sleep to phones if they remain still long. In the Android N, the function will go further and make the phone always rest the screen is off. Google noted that background tasks will be more efficient and consume less battery with Android N.
There’s More!
Google said the new Android feature set N not stay there. Google will continue to provide new functions under the development.
Usually, new versions of Android annual developer conference the company presented at Google I / O. This year, I / O will be held from 18 to 20 May.
“This year we’ll do something a little different and make the presentation before … much earlier,” Google said in a blog.
Google said the preview allows developers to offer their views much earlier, giving Google more time to incorporate feedback from application developers. With this, he followed the example of the preview of Windows 10 of Microsoft, which allowed anyone to unload and make suggestions in between.
The next version of Android will be called some sweet delicious starting with the letter “N”. The current version is called Marshmallow (bonbon).
