| Google reveals next version of Android: more battery and better notifications |
Google has released the first beta for developers of its next version of Android, whose current name is O. Its main features are features that will improve the life of our battery, better management of notifications, picture-in-picture and Notifications counter in the 'apps' icons.
We still do not know everything that will come in this Android O, but it seems that will improve that eternal problem called battery. To do this, the new operating system will aggressively manage what apps can do in the background, as IOS has been doing for some time.
The new notifications will allow to be grouped in groups denominated 'channels' to manage them better, although it has not yet transcended what it means that. An interesting new option is the possibility to postpone them as when we give the 'snooze' button on the alarm clock to let us know later.
Together with these new functions it is expected that more secondary ones will arrive. For example, an improvement in the sound of wireless headphones thanks to new sound codecs. It will also allow application developers to create adaptive icons that change shape and appearance, which may mean that the new Android O will include new themes.
Do not leave because there's more, such as a 'picture-in-picture' mode for videos and a better Android operation on Chromebooks. When will the beta arrive? It is not yet known, but if we take into account that last year all the information was revealed during the May congress it is possible that this will be repeated in 2017.
