Google has published an initial version of the new Android 11 operating system, which is aimed at developers with the ability to install them on American company Pixel phones.
And Google explained that Android 11 has many new functions, as it will support modern 5G mobile networks, and it will also fit more screen formats such as folding screens.
The new Android 11 will provide a better overview of ongoing conversations and chats, and will also provide more security and privacy by temporarily providing application permissions, especially with regard to highly sensitive access rights such as location, camera and microphone.
It is expected to launch the final version of the new Android 11 by the fall of this year.
The following are the ten most important features that exist in the new operating system:
1- Chat balloon
Android 11 allows any application for messaging or chat to use balloons to facilitate the user experience during conversations, a method similar to the way the Messenger app works from Facebook, allowing navigation within and outside the conversation without the need to open the application, and when you click on the balloon you will see your previous messages and a text field To send a new message.
2- Conducting conversations via notifications
In the new system, Google has provided a dedicated section for conversations via notifications, where users can make any conversations from within the notifications section, for different messaging applications, the goal of this feature is to make communication with your contacts as easy as possible.
3- Include images in notifications responses
The new system also allows images to be included in the responses of the included notifications and sent without having to fully open the application, once again we have a feature that extends the functionality outside the main application.
4. Give permissions for applications once
Google has also handled the app's permissions, which is what Google focuses on once again in the Android 11 version, where you can now grant apps one-time permissions, including access to your location, microphone and camera.
5- Prevent vibrations while using the camera
The new Android software prevents vibration associated with ring tones, alarms or notifications anytime the camera app is open.
6- Improving the storage process
Google revealed that it is continuing its work to provide better protection of application and user data on external storage, and has made further improvements to make the transfer process easier for developers.
7- Improving the fifth generation experience
According to Google, phones running Android 10 can already connect to 5G networks, but in Android 11, Google is working to improve and update the software application interface for communication, so you can take advantage of the improved 5G speeds.
8- Better compatibility with new screens
Google provided support for these screens in the Android 11 version, allowing applications to make the most of curved screens on both sides including edges.
