What’s New on Android 12?
Google exactly didn’t announce anything yet. But from some of their blogs and communities, we can guess and know about some features. We can not exactly be sure until Google officially announces anything. But some rumors and blog posts are guessing some amazing features of android 12. Let’s know it now in the following section.
OS updates directly from the Play Store
Android 12 can also make it easier for Google to directly deliver app updates XDA developers have found that the company can push more operating system updates through the Google Play Store instead of sending wirelessly by adding ART (Android Runtime) mainline module of Android. This could lead to more frequent updates and fewer hangups by phone makers.
App Pairs split-screen Experience
Android 11 offers a split-screen experience where you can have two apps open on your device simultaneously as for Android 12. Some rumors on the internet say Google is working on an improved version called App Pairs.
Currently, a split-screen effectively “pins” one app, but Android 12’s App Pairs system will group two apps as one “task” so you can select two of your newly opened apps recently become a couple. Once paired, you will switch between using another single application and the pair you created. 9to5Google (A Blog Of Google’s Update) shared an emulation of the feature’s interface.
The Android 12 app pair also has a divider that allows you to adjust the amount of screen the app uses.
Easy and safe access to ‘other app stores’
The android developer Google mentioned in an article in their blog that Android 12 will “make it even easier for people to use other app stores on their devices while being careful not to compromise the safety measures Android has in place.”
It did not explain what it meant or how it would work. However, we assume that your device has quick access to apps in third-party stores and that security measures are in place.
