ANDROID N FEATURES

Multi-Window Support: The joy of multitasking can be experienced with this feature. Users can now sift around multiple windows on their device. It means they can work on more than one app at once, on multiple windows. They can even resize their app screen in multiple windows. For this, developers can set a minimum size to their apps.

New Settings menu: Android N now gives a revamped settings menu. A new Suggestions drop-down section appears at the top. Basic details of each menu is displayed in the main Settings menu itself. So, if you want to see if your device is connected to Bluetooth, you can see it on the main Settings menu itself. This is definitely a time saver setting.

Notifications Redesigned: Notifications have finally got a fresh change. It is similar to that of Marshmallow except for a few minor changes. Notifications are now bundled together and occupy the whole screen unlike Marshmallow where only a portion was occupied. Also, you can reply to messages from the notifications itself. You don’t need to launch the app for replying.

Mobile Data Saving: Thankfully, without installing any third party apps, users can now save the usage of their internet using this inbuilt feature. You simply have to turn it on to begin data saving. It blocks background data usage.

Night Mode: Users will love this one. Though it has been launched late but it’s better late than never. IOS has already launched it recently. With Night Mode turned on, you can easily use your device at night without having to cause strain to your eyes.

Improved Dozing: This feature hibernates all inactive apps on your device that were idle for a longer time. It works when you put your phone in your pocket or simply lock it.

Screen Zooming: Another inspiration from iOS, this feature now lets users with low vision to zoom into elements on their screens for clear visibility.

Android has surely come a long way in improving user experience with feasibility of Android developers. This time it has made sure to save users more time. Let’s see how it’s final release will be like.
