Android 11 Beta- Main Features
Some of the most important things that has been added with this update are –
- Better Notification Panel– As we all know, the notification panel is one of the most important things in our mobile phones as it keeps giving us alerts. Here in the Android 11 update, notification panel has been changed and you will be able to see notifications as per your priority, plus you won’t get disturbed with those unnecessary ones as they will come in the silent box.
- Notification History – This feature is going to be your saviour here as it will save all the notifications that you accidentally swipe off, a lot of times. You can change this from the notification settings of your phone and you will get hold of all of them.
- Chat Bubbles– Android 11 has been developed in such a way that will provide the users with a better way to communicate. Here you will have chat bubbles like Facebook Messenger and you can easily chat with anyone without opening the app.
- Screen Recorder– This was one of the most important features that Android users have been eyeing for. With Android 11 you will have a direct option to record your screen like it is in iPhone.
- Media Controls– Not only the notification panel but your control section has also been changed this time. Now you will be having your media controller in your quick settings and not in the notification panel.
- Dark Theme– Although the dark theme was introduced in Android 10 as well here with this update, it has been personalised as per the user’s preferences. You can actually schedule your dark theme according to sunset and sunrise time as well.
- Wireless Android Auto– Here you will see that every phone running on Android 11 will be able to connect their phones through wireless android auto. Now there is no need to plug-in every time.
The list of features for Android 11 seems to be a never ending one. This is the update that all the android users need to have to enhance their experience of using their devices.
