Upcoming Android N will have these new features

At last year's I/O conference, Google said it would launch a new version number after a major update to Android every year in the I/O conference. This year we will be able to see the Android 7.0 version number, which is Android N, in the I/O conference. After the I/O Assembly is launched, the developer preview will be updated every January until the official version number is released in October. Android n This version number will bring a lot of new features and improved optimizations, and the foreign media androidauthority a summary of confirmed messages and rumors about Android N.

Confirmed Android N new features Android N release date

We already know. Android N will be officially announced at the Google I/O developer Conference on May 18. The developer Preview version of Android n will be available after the Pichai keynote speech is completed. The official version of Android N will be launched with 2016 nexus at the end of October or early November .

During the 6-month period from May to November, Google will provide initial firmware to other OEMs and operators at the same time.

Multi-form Mode

The first proven Android N new feature is the multi-form mode. The news is the pixel C team in the Reddit forum's AMA in low-key disclosure. In the course of the answer. Andrew Bowers confirmed the news of "split-screen work". While we can now enjoy the convenience of multi-form mode in the marshmallow version, this time Android N will allow for further optimization of performance and experience.

Optimizing Your Tablet experience

In addition, a Glen Murphy, a member of the Google Pixel C team, also said. Google has been trying to improve the user experience of Android on tablets. Although he did not continue to speak, it was conceivable that the functional optimizations of these Android N tablets might include a more powerful multi-tasking feature (not just on multiple forms), a real-world tablet-customized Android app suite (rather than simply "phone" Applications, as well as customized navigation keys, DPI switchers, mini application forms, and system interface adjustments.

OPENJDK replacing the Java API

Despite the losing of Google. Android will no longer use Oracle's Java API in the future. But this does not affect Google's use of Oracle's OPENJDK, an open source Java development tool. This incident has been confirmed by Google's official:

"We plan to create a common code environment for developers to build applications and services by ' changing the Android Jave language Library to a OPENJDK-based development language ' approach. ”

So. The change in Android N development environment due to losing the lawsuit should be negligible.

Rumors of Android N new features Android N official name

The title conjecture about Android N is the biggest game of the year. Even more topic-rich than "who will be responsible for making 2016 nexus". People don't need to know the intricacies of Android, and they don't have to pay for it. Just have to come up with your favorite "N"-headed dessert and be able to vote.

For the moment, the most likely is Nutella, a chocolate sauce. The nougat (nougat) followed. Pichai also said he had asked his mother and fans to vote for the name Android N.  

Support for the stylus

Previously, Samsung had hinted that it would no longer add the S PEN API to Android N. Use Android's generic API instead.

Samsung's developer page description also reads "will be deprecated in Android n". So it's natural if this is true: these stylus features will be natively supported in Android 7.0.

And it's not the first-the same thing happened before the Lollipop introduced the power-saving mode and the cotton candy introduced fingerprint recognition.

Integrated ChromeOS

This is a less reliable message. Last year the Wall Street Journal reported that Android and Chrome OS would soon merge, but Google responded very quickly. Indicates that Chrome OS does not disappear immediately. What Google means:

Chrome OS is a completely chrome-based operating system that will always "exist." But in the future it does go "find a better way to integrate it with Android". So. We are very likely to see Chrome OS on Android N.

New messaging app

Rumor has it. Google will integrate a new messaging app in Android N in place of the most unpopular messaging app for video group chats, text messaging, and MMS. New applications will be based on the RCS platform, offering many other features that are better to experience. Although Google has publicly admitted that it will support the RSC standard, it does not have a verdict on whether it can be launched on Android N.

Estimated new features in Android n Dark color theme reproduction

Short-lived dark themes disappear after a brief appearance in the developer version number of Android M. Given that this is a new feature that is popular with consumers, and the AMOLED screen is beginning to take over a large area of the display market, perhaps we can assume it will sneak back as a new feature of Android N, just like the multi-form mode.

Improved smart Lock function

Android M introduces the smart Lockpassword feature. This is a basic Googlepassword manager. A password that can be used to store an application when resetting a system or replacing a device. Allows for seamless login.

But the problem now is. There are no very many applications that can support smart Lockpassword functionality. So its value is still not being fully exploited to a large extent. Assuming luck, on Android N we will be able to see many other applications that support this feature.

Moar Battery Optimization

For Android version no matter what. Battery optimization is an eternal topic. Lollipop version number in Google added battery protection mode, in Android m Google has added a power saving mode. and to the Android n this generation will be very likely to further intact these features, such as in the pocket of the time to sleep, and according to the power of their own active regulation of battery protection mode.

Enhanced security and improved application stability

By adding app Rights Management to Android M, Google is undoubtedly taking an important step in the right direction: Agreeing with users to choose whether or not to restrict or constrain a particular application. But since this feature is still in its early stages of development, some applications have not been updated, so this feature is not ideal in some cases.

And after Android N is launched. What Google should do is urge these developers to update their applications to provide stability at the same level. Permission to open critical permissions to the user.

Upcoming Android N will have these new features
