Performance, security and productivity: the pillars of … – Hipertextual

This Google I / O 2016 has arrived with a big spoiler certainly its most interesting product: Android N . Unlike what has happened in recent years, we have come to the I / O with the new version of Android known. And it is that Android N appeared in March in the form of preview for developers. Now, simply, Google has shown to developers some new Android N Preview 3, further, is already valid for everyday use.

In this way, we already knew extremely interesting details like new multiventana or the spectacular new notification center , and night mode or Vulkan API to optimize the performance of horseplay, and surpassed the OpenGL ES stage. The strange thing is that, as has happened in other years, we will have to wait for the final release to know what is behind the letter “N”, but with a novelty. Google will hear proposals for users to decide the final classification the operating system.

In this version, Google has placed great emphasis on aspects such as performance, security and productivity (based mainly on improved multitasking), after revolutionize the graphics interface with Lollipop and refine with Marshmallow. In addition to developments in these three fields, Android N receives little extra additions that have “announced” with the following image.



as for the first, Google has explained the improvements brought Vulkan graphics performance and JIT compiler Android N. Both downsize applications and provide interesting news about energy efficiency . As we celebrate with ART at the time, any contribution to the heart of the system is welcome

As for security, Google has said that Android N, safety focuses on three fundamental aspects:. Encrypting File ( insulates users of the system), a division of framework in subsystems and updates more transparent system, so we will not see the detested image below .

Multitasking and productivity go very hand in modern operating systems. Google knows and Android N incorporates no new features, because as TouchWiz customization layers have them from 2011-2012, but native to all users of Android N (smartphones and tablets).

This is Split-screen and picture-in-picture . The first way we see below, is the classic multi-window (or split screen) of the Note. Being in an application, we long press on the button multitasking, and the system provides what app place just below (or wherever we choose), with ability to resize. The second mode provides, Android TV, the classic function of continue watching videos while other uses of the system do

smaller Other functions, but no less important, such as grouped notifications and quick response in them, do come now.

in addition, if you switch applications and it was a comfortable process, will now be much faster. Long it has been asked a way to exchange position between two applications such as providing Last App Switcher, and has finally arrived. Double-click the button multitasking, the user will move between the two most recent applications: the current and the previous one. This avoid having to go to the menu and makes the transparent recent change . It seems trivial, but save many seconds throughout the day.



Android N Preview 3 it is available today for developers. For its innovations in greater depth, the website dedicated is the place to go.
