What’s New in Android 12?

Google has unveiled Android 12, a new operating system, for Pixel phones and the mainstream phones coming out in the next few months. The new operating system will offer several new features including Material You, a design language that adapts to your preferences, including changing color depending on your wallpaper. Another major feature of Android 12 is privacy, including new tools like the Privacy Dashboard and Private Compute Core. If you’re worried about your privacy, you’ll be happy to know that you can protect your privacy and secure your data with a new app.

Android’s notification system has also improved. The “Notification History” feature has been included in Android devices for a long time, but this feature has been disabled in Android 12. To enable Notifications History, you must visit the Notifications section of your system settings and toggle it on. Once enabled, you’ll be able to see all recent alerts and view them in detail. The Notifications section on your phone will show you which alerts are relevant to you and which ones you should dismiss.

A lot of under-the-hood changes are also included in Android 12. While the operating system itself remains unchanged, developers can now access new APIs that make it easier to create applications. Vibration, for example, is most commonly associated with gaming consoles, but Android 12 has native support for the feature. The device can vibrate in response to a wide range of events, including video playback and movies, as well as custom ringtones.

Android 12 has made it easier to monitor how your phone uses your permissions. The new Privacy Dashboard lets you see which apps are using your camera, microphone, and location. Android also introduces the Private Compute Core, which requires explicit permission from the user. This feature is great news for privacy, and it will definitely increase your privacy. It’s important to know what you’re signing up for when you download apps on your phone. You shouldn’t do this, however, if you don’t want to end up with a rogue app.

Another major feature in Android 12 is the new Material You design language. Google’s new design language aims to bring a cohesive look across apps and UI elements. Material You also lets you customize your phone’s boot animation with dynamic colors. The new version of Android also adds support for ‘Material You’ themes. The new operating system is a big step forward in Android and brings a whole host of new features and improvements.

Another new feature in Android 12 is the hidden Recycle Bin. This feature is similar to Windows’ “Recycle Bin” feature that hides deleted files, but allows for temporary recovery in Windows. The system-wide view of the Trash Bin is also included in Android 12 beta 2. Unlike its predecessors, it allows apps that have edit access to trashed files to show them to the user. There’s a slight caveat, however: you can’t switch off Wi-Fi.
